News and Notes: Friday Edition

(photo Michael King)
Below, some news and notes for Friday...
  • WVBR notes as follows:
"After taking a break for the Christmas Holiday, here is what to look forward to for the Cornel Men's Basketball team during the remainder of 2010(All games broadcast on 93.5/105.5 FM and WVBR.com).
Wednesday 12/29: Cornell vs. New Hampshire, 5 PM
Thursday 12/30: Cornell vs. VCU/Wofford 5 or 7 PM
Matchups: The Big Red look to get back on track and break a seven-game losing streak. In New Hampshire, Cornell will be facing an America East opponent for the fourth times this season. The Wildcats are a rugged, low-scoring team, so expect a game in the 50's or 60's. If the Red can keep up on the boards, it is a very winnable game. The next day, Cornell will either face Wofford of the Southern League or VCU of the Colonial. Each of those squads are higher scoring and more athletic than New Hampshire. VCU features an RPI in the top 100, and boasts two wins against BCS schools- UCLA and Wake Forest."
  • Cornell RPI Watch: The RPI (Rating Percentage Index) is a measure of strength of schedule and how a team does against that schedule. It does not consider the margin of victory, but only whether or not a team won and where the game was played (home/away/neutral court). The formula is 25% team winning percentage (WP), 50% opponents' average winning percentage (OWP), and 25% opponents' opponents' average winning percentage (OOWP). (See: CollegeRPI.com for a further explanation of the formula.) The RPI may be the most influential factor in NCAA Tournament seeding. Cornell's RPI rank as of December 24 is No. 228 out of 347 total Division I teams. While neither the Ken Pomeroy or Jeff Sagarin rankings are used by the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee, the KenPom.com site ranks Cornell No. 203 in the nation, while the USA Today Sagarin rankings have Cornell at No. 222. Both sites are predominantly used by fans and the media.
