PLAYOFF SCENARIOS
Vermont can be as high as the two seed going into next week's America East playoffs. For them to clinch the two seeds, they will need to win combined with a UAlbany win. The Catamounts can clinch the three seed with a win and wins by Binghamton and Merrimack. There is also a possibility of the third seed with a loss and wins by Albany and Merrimack. Finally, Vermont can be the fourth seed with a win and wins by Binghamton and Bryant. The last scenario for the Catamounts is with a loss and wins by Binghamton and Merrimack; they will be the fourth seed.
