Forgot to note a little bit earlier that Navy won't have play Army in the opening round of the Patriot League tournament.
Of course, the Midshipmen might have to play Army in Michie Stadium for the second time this month.
Colgate's victory over Bucknell last night handed the No. 1 seed to Army, which beat Navy head-to-head eight days ago. Colgate is the No. 3 seed, while Bucknell fell to No. 4.
On paper, that might help the Mids out. They handled Colgate 8-3 in the regular season, but the Raiders will enter the tournament (to be played at West Point) on a four-game winning streak.
Another historical tidbit: In four previous PL tournament semifinals, the Mids have outscored their opponents 46-14.
