Week 10

S. Dakota St.- 79, Cal- 77
Towson- 68, UMBC- 51
Manhattan- 63, UCSB- 53

Final Group 37 standings:

#1- California 9-1 (+107)
#2- S. Dakota St. 8-2 (+97)
#3- Towson 4-6 (-21)
#4- UMBC 4-6 (-69)
#5- Manhattan 3-7 (-56)
#6- UCSB 2-8 (-58)

Cal wins the group, but that loss to S. Dakota St. is their only blemish. Without that, they could be looking at a top 10 seed. Now they are most likely looking at a seed between 10-20. S. Dakota St. is a very solid group runner-up. 8-2 is the best record for group runner-ups. There are 3 teams that are 8-2, and S. Dakota St. has the best point differential. Right now, they are looking at being the highest ranked group runner-up, but that could change. Towson gets third place thanks to a tiebreaker with UMBC, that being point differential. Again, it matters not, as Towson is nowhere near close to competing for a wildcard berth. How far away were they you ask? Well let's take a look at the updated wildcard standings:

N.C. Central 7-3 (+63)
