America East

Starting Saturday on campus sites, the America East begins their conference tournament. The America East regular season champ was Vermont who finished 14-2 in league play, having been swept by America’s Sweetheart, UMBC.

Vermont finished 83rd in KenPom. The next best squad was Stony Brook at 158. Stony Brook finished 12-4 in league and 24-7 overall. UMBC finished 3rd at 11-5 and 19-12 overall but are only 227th in KenPom. They did sweep Vermont like I mentioned. The 4th place Team is Hartford who was 40 spots better in KenPom than UMBC.

The Pick: Vermont - Vermont is clearly the best team in the league and one most likely to steal a game in March
