In reply to: Bengal 's message, "USCHO hockey poll" on 14:51:34 01/05/26 Mon

Heading into the men’s final weekend:

QU 47
DC 43
Cornell 41
P 35
H 32
Union 31

QU on top but DC within range, and plays QU and P at home. QU also plays at a good H team. Cornell is not mathematically eliminated from a possible 1st place tie, but that seems unlikely. I think QU hangs on to the League title.

After picking up 4 points, including a 4-2 upset of Cornell at Baker Rink, P has a shot at a first round bye. P, IMO however, is an underdog at H and DC, although 7 weeks ago narrowly defeated both at Baker. P could nail down a bye with an outright win at H Friday night. Whatever happens this weekend, P has home ice in its opening round. Union not mathematically eliminated from a first round bye going into the weekend.

Quinnipiac:
THIS WEEK: At Dartmouth, at Harvard.
ON THEIR OWN: Clinches first with one point against Dartmouth.
BEST CASE: First.
WORST CASE: Drops to second with two regulation losses if Dartmouth
also gets at least two points against Princeton.
TIEBREAKERS: Beats Cornell; could win or lose* against Dartmouth.

Dartmouth:
THIS WEEK: Quinnipiac, Princeton.
ON THEIR OWN: Finishes second with four points on the weekend.
BEST CASE: Would take first with a sweep in regulation if Quinnipiac
gets no more than one point against Harvard.
WORST CASE: Falls to third with a pair of losses in regulation if
Cornell gets at least three points.
TIEBREAKERS: Beats Cornell; could win* or lose against Quinnipiac.

Cornell:
THIS WEEK: St. Lawrence, Clarkson.
ON THEIR OWN: One point will give the Big Red third place.
BEST CASE: Climbs up to second with two regulation wins if Dartmouth
gets no more than three points.
WORST CASE: Would finish fourth if they are swept in regulation and
Princeton wins in regulation twice.
TIEBREAKERS: Loses to Quinnipiac, Dartmouth, and Princeton.

Princeton:
THIS WEEK: At Harvard, at Dartmouth.
ON THEIR OWN: Locks up fourth with a win over Harvard.
BEST CASE: Finishes third with a regulation sweep if Cornell does not
get any points.
WORST CASE: Ends up sixth with two regulation losses if Harvard gets a
point against Quinnipiac and Union gets at least five points.
TIEBREAKERS: Beats Cornell; could win or lose against Harvard and
Union.

QU 7 down from 5
Cornell 11 no change
DC 14 no change
Union 21
P 28

I have noticed before that a loss to a lesser ranked team hadn’t dropped a team in this poll and I realize what other teams do the same weekend matters, and Cornell’s loss to us, a much lower team, didn’t cost them in the poll. P is now at 28 probably courtesy of our Cornell win.

Penn State is 5 in men and 3 in women poll. Both coached by former P coaches.

Neglected to note Union ranked 21, ahead of P in this poll but trailing by 4 points in the ECAC standings, for now.
