I think Loyola has the best chance followed by Penn State and then Princeton. Northwestern has the toughest road to the Final Four.

Hopefully one of the teams can pull off an upset.


I can see Loyola possibly pulling one out if they can shut off Treanor. Penn State has been very impressive this season, but not sure if they'll be able to take down UNC - it really depends on how both goalies play. Normally I would say Princeton has no shot, but this reason they have really stepped up their game and I wouldn't be shocked to see them take down Duke. Northwestern is on a downward spiral, probably because of the insane coach (my daughter has several friends who play for her - she sounds like an absolute nightmare), so I highly doubt that they will be able to beat Maryland...but then again, if Ohio State was able to do it, never say never.
