The 2009-10 season in the CAA saw the favorites come out on top, a great non-conference run by a team few expected to do so, and big years from a lot of younger players, among other things. Could an even better season be in store next year?

CAA Tournament Quick Hitters
We wrap up CAA Tournament coverage with a few more notes, including something from each team who bowed out in the quarterfinal round on Saturday.
Colonial Notebook: A Senior Struggles in Atlanta

Colonial Notebook: Symmetry in the Standings and Change of Pace for Tribe
CAA play has begun in earnest, and already it’s gotten interesting. As we enter the middle of the big five-day stretch with three games for each team (save for Drexel and VCU, who play their third game of the stretch on Thursday), there is some symmetry in the standings as three teams are 2-0, six are 1-1 and three are 0-2. But that’s not all. After five of the six games played in December went to the road team, the home teams had their revenge on Saturday as only Drexel pulled out a road win at Hofstra.
Weekend Tournament Quick Hitters
While NJIT’s losing streak gets plenty of attention, Monmouth also entered Saturday’s game without a win. They were 0-6, albeit against a very difficult schedule, so they were happy to get a win.
