Probably not the thread for it, but the rest of conference play is going to be really telling for the Zips with the likes of Toledo, Buffalo (2x) BG (2x), and Kent (2x) left.
Compared to last year, we are already only 1 win away from matching our conference and overall win total, which has me off of the ledge compared to the beginning of conference play when we were getting blown out by NIU. Who knew NIU would be contenders in the West and knock off Buffalo at that point though?
Going 5-5 in the final 10 would have me content as the program would be showing improvement by a solid margin over last year . That would also put us in realistic range to get to that coveted "20 win season" by winning a few games in the conference tourney. Of course, I wouldn't mind us doing better! These games are vital to our seeding in the tourney. as we will be duking it out with the top 4 teams in the East and the current 1st place in the West.
