The outdoor track and field just finished. I have not actually plugged the numbers into my spreadsheet yet, but a very disappointing performance for the men (picked 2nd finished 8th) appears to have sealed our fate for fourth place, which is a step down from last year. ASU is the team to pass us.
This can be blamed on several things. Even though we made the tournament title game for mens basketball, we only received 6 points for it...ASU and ULL and FAU (who all were eliminated in the first game they played) both received 11 points because they won or tied for their divisions. UALR only got 3 points and they won the whole thing. Despite my effort, I have yet to truly figure out how they calculate points for men's and women's basketball...all I know is that it is some combination between divisional and tournament finish.
Also, performances that were not only disappointing, but unexpected from softball and men's track did us in. Plus, we could have used more than 1.5 points from women's basketball. Also, fielding a baseball team would help enormously. I'm just rambling now...
The good news is that the Bubus Cup really isn't a big deal, it is just pretty fun to follow.
