This season the CC tournament will have 6 teams instead of the 8 teams that it had last season. The one thing that hasn’t changed is that the winner will get an automatic bid to the national tournament.

In case you want to check out RPI heading into the final weekend, here you go.

Updated RPI

Today is also the beginning of the IVA Tournament. Check out yesterday’s newsletter for the full tournament projections.
