So realistically, Eastern has to be the favorite. I'm not sure how the tiebreakers work and I'm not going to play out every single scenario to see who is mathmatically eliminated or still alive, but here's what the most likely contenders have left. Still several games between contending teams as well as with some of the teams sitting at 4-2 so anything can happen.
6-0 Eastern: Yeshiva, Salem State
5-1 EConn: @ Salem State, Yeshiva
5-1 Yeshiva: @ Eastern, @ EConn
5-1 Blackburn: Palm Beach Atlantic, WI-OshKosh
If Eastern somehow lost both games, it's possible depending on other outcomes that some of the 2 loss teams could be in the mix, but it's not looking likely at this point. Eastern getting both games at home is a huge help and should all but guarantee that the title is theirs. At the very least it's theirs to lose.
Looking VERY tough for Yeshiva having to play those two teams on the road. Blackburn with the next toughest schedule, but they get both games at home. Eastern and EConn have the same schedule, except EConn has one of the games on the road. Not sure how the tiebreakers work, but several of those should be decided in the next couple of games if they are actually needed
