Horizon League shift: Since several teams have been impacted by COVID-19, creating varying numbers of games, the league has decided to determine its champion and tournament seeding by winning percentage. Last year, it went with a formula that included strength of schedule. That’s how the Wright State and Milwaukee women, which finished 15-5, were named regular-season co-champs despite Green Bay winning at a slightly higher clip while finishing 14-4. “We did not go down that (same) route this year. It’s just winning percentage, which I think is how almost every Division-I conference is doing it this year as well,” HL assistant commissioner Dan Gliot said. “I like to think of it like softball and baseball in the Horizon League. Those games get lost (due to weather), and they’re not able to be made up, unfortunately.” Oakland (9-1 in the league), Cleveland State (10-2), Wright State (9-4) and Northern Kentucky (7-4) all have nine conference games left. The Raiders found a gap in their schedule to make up a cancellation with Northern Kentucky, but openings will be harder to find with the regular season ending Feb. 26. “It’s tough. There are not a lot of dates. You don’t want to be playing six games in 11 days,” Gliot said.

UIC's statement regarding the above: Yawn. Seems to me UIC put their student athletes and their conference championship participation in jeopardy, not the HL. Moving on...

Now that UIC has been excluded from the HL Tournament, how will the brackets be set up? The top 4 teams were scheduled to receive 1rst round byes, and the 4 winners of the games between teams 5-12 would advance to the 2nd round. With only 11 teams in the tournament, this set up doesn't work. Something has to change.

I'm sure an announcement will be forthcoming, but I think the answer might be the opening round going to 3 games instead of 4. 8v9, winner gets the 1 7v10, winner gets the 2 6v11, winner gets the 3 4v5, winner plays the 1,8,9 winner 2,7,10 winner plays the 3,6,11 winner

Forget where I saw that but on this board somewhere.

Forget where I saw that but on this board somewhere. That's what I've outlined. The 4/5 game is a second round game while the 1,2,3 seeds wait for a prior game winner, the 4/5 does not.
