NOTE: NESCAC rules prohibit participation in more than one post-season
tournament. The NESCAC schools in the ECAC East (Amherst,
Bowdoin,Colby,Conn College, Hamilton, Middlebury, Trinity, Wesleyan,
Williams) who clinch ECAC East playoffs spots may elected to vacate
them in favor of waiting for an NCAA bid. Therefore, some teams that
have been theoretically eliminated from playoff contention could still
make the playoffs, provided that they move up into one of the top ten
positions.
