After 1st week of season, I stress its still very early , overall the MAAC doesn't appear to be quite as weak as the knee jerk crowd proclaimed 6 games into the season. Here is a look at every team
( note this isn't a projected league standing, just where each team is Vs preseason expectations)
Iona- big surprise , looks like the Gaels are the real deal, definitely stamped themselves the team to beat in the MAAC
Marist - Played the Hall tough on the road and took care of business against lesser opponent, looked good so far
Niagara- won the games they should have played St johns close on the road, definitely looks stronger than most predicted
Rider - Played some tough teams close and took care of a BU team- primed for a mid pack finish, better than most thought given their youth
Loyola - only played one game and TCB
Siena- maybe won't fall as far as some thought, exceeded expectations, big game against Fordham tomorrow
SPC- lost 3 games and haven't looked good yet
Manhattan - disappointing so far, they really miss Mulligan, guards have been weak offensively and team can't shoot Free throws, recipe for disaster. Still early maybe Gonzo can turn them around, but this team looks to have some serious ****** in its armour
Canisius - two losses so far, don't look like a contender some thought they would be
Fairfield - Has looked horrible early in the year, could this be TOT's swan song, if the Stags don't turn it around ASAP I'd say so
