We have hit the final full week of the regular season games of the 2023-24 season! We had some minor movements in the rankings, with George Mason climbing up to the #2 spot after a big win over Richmond last week being one of the major moves. VCU handed Saint Joseph’s their second loss in conference play last week, and the Rams climbed up to the #4 spot while the Hawks remain at the #1 spot! Fordham is starting to heat as they have won their last 5 games and have a chance to win at least one more this week to earn a bye into Thursday for the tournament. In the final week of games, there are still a whole bunch of games that will have big implications for the conference tournament this week, and none of the top spots are fully secured with the final week of games. Richmond will host the rematch of a game earlier this season on Wednesday, Rhode Island hosts VCU on Wednesday, Duquense hosts Saint Joe’s on Saturday, and VCU hosts George Mason for a rematch of a game earlier this season on Saturday to wrap up all regular season games!
