Lafayette has quietly been right there with Bucknell and Lehigh the last few years. The Leopards should be right in the mix again this season despite a key departure.
Conference Notes
Lehigh Mountain Hawks 2013-14 Preview
It’s easy to forget that Lehigh loses much more than just C.J. McCollum, who they also lost for much of last season due to injury. In their first year without him and two other key starters, the cupboard isn’t bare, especially on the perimeter.
Loyola (Md.) Greyhounds 2013-14 Preview
The Greyhounds will be new all over the place this season, with three starters gone, a new head coach and being a newcomer to the league. They could be a sleeper in their first year with a veteran perimeter unit.
Navy Midshipmen 2013-14 Preview
Navy brings a lot back from last season, which can be good or bad considering they were 8-23 last season. The big plus is that they have a good core to start with.
Brown Bears 2013-14 Preview
In short order, Mike Martin has his alma mater going very much in the right direction.
Columbia Lions 2013-14 Preview
A year after a promising start to what ended up being a disappointing season, the Lions will have a full-fledged youth movement in effect this season.
Cornell Big Red 2013-14 Preview
Like their fellow New York school, Cornell will look very different this season and it may feel to some like they’re starting over as they lose a lot from last season’s team.
Dartmouth Big Green 2013-14 Preview
With another good recruiting class in the mix, Dartmouth could be primed for a leap this year, although with just one senior it could be another year with growing pains.
Harvard Crimson 2013-14 Preview
Simply put, Harvard is the prohibitive favorite to win the league this season with their talent, depth and experience, building off last season’s accomplishments.
Penn Quakers 2013-14 Preview
If Penn can get through their non-league slate in a good place, they could make a leap in the standings. This is a team with good talent and lineup flexibility, allowing them to play several ways.
