WPI Preview

It's been a crazy week and so I am not going to post much of a preview. That said I think Hobart will finally pick up a win on the road in Woostah, dude (that's Massachusetts-speak for you non-New Englanders) this Halloween. The Statesmen are 0-4 on Halloween but I expect this year to turn from a trick into a treat for Hobart.

Although the WPI offense is ranked #1 scoring (28.1 PPG) and #2 in total offense (362.4 YPG) in the LL, their stats were padded somewhat from earlier non-conference NEFC patsies such as Becker College (0-8).

WPI is 0-4 in the LL to date and has not scored over 19 points in their past three games. Hobart's improved "D" has risen up to become the #1 scoring defense in the LL allowing only 17.2 PPG.

My inthehuddlle.com prediction was Hobart will win 24-14 so I am sticking with that same call - Hobart moves to 1-4 all time on Halloween.

Thanks, Happy Halloween and Go 'Bart!
