Do we still have a shot at the 6 seed?

What if we win 2 and Northeastern loses 2 (@ Elon and UNCW)? Do we have the tiebreaker vs JMU?

If Hofstra is in a two-way tie with James Madison, it would be for seventh, with Northeastern ahead of us and James Madison. We swept Northeastern, who split with James Madison, so Hofstra would win a three-way tie for sixth. The head-to-head would be Hofstra 3-1, James Madison 2-2, and Northeastern 1-3. James Madison's game at Drexel is irrelevant to Hofstra getting a bye because if Hofstra beats James Madison and Northeastern loses both, Hofstra will be either 1 game ahead of James Madison and win the head-to-head tiebreaker over Northeastern, or Hofstra will win the three-way tiebreaker. Northeasterrn goes to Elon and UNC Wilmington, so Hofstra has a chance at the 6 seed if they win both games.

If we beat JMU on Saturday do we still lose the tie breaker for 7th? Not sure what that tie breaker is.

The tiebreaker, which James Madison won, is record vs. the first place team, second place team, and so on.
