Caleb has beaten a ton of ranked guys this year.

His RPI & Coaches is very high. It would be criminal if that awfully officiated ACC final outweighed everything else. Conf finish is only 10% of the criteria. Not a big diff between 1&2. And just Top 5 guys - Caleb 2-2. Beat Parco & Arrington. Lost to Lovett & Arrington (officially at least). Arrington is 1-1. Both vs Caleb. Arrington has 4 losses on the season. Lost to D’Emilio at CKLV then he MFF out - tagged with losses to Gabe Willochel & Nash Singleton. Note he pummeled both Willochel & Singleton earlier rounds at CKLV. And lost to Henson. Common opponent also comes into play. Henson 1-0 vs D’Emilio. Arrington 1-1 (he did avenge earlier loss). Also opponents strength of record is a factor and Henson picks up Lovett & Parco (Arrington does not). I think you’ll see Caleb as the 2 or 3. Lovett, Caleb/Parco, Parco/Caleb, Arrington the probs Austin Gomez as the 5. All those guys are absolute studs and capable of winning it all. Plus the next 4-5 guys are all studs too. Chance Lamer, Logan Gioffre, Ty Watters. Tyler Kasak, Swiderski etc. Henson also has wins over Lamer and Gioffre this season. Arrington does not. Overall win % Caleb is 25-2 (Arrington is 18-4). Another factor in seeding criteria.

A few thoughts (Henson seed/Mekhi #1/Orine-Latona III?)
VTDante 03/12/24 02:33 PM ET
I would be very surprised if Mekhi isn't the number 1 seed
Hikinghokie 03/12/24 02:40 PM ET
I don't like the 149 potential seeding
Hikinghokie 03/12/24 01:44 PM ET
He is going for the title so he has to beat the best to get there...**
NovaHokie97 03/12/24 02:44 PM ET
Well hell, just make him the 32 seed - get the #1 out of the way early. **
Palmetto Hokie 03/12/24 03:21 PM ET
Hahaha**
NovaHokie97 03/12/24 05:55 PM ET
I think he's capable regardless

Agree. I think Henson gets the 3 seed.**
MC4VT 03/12/24 03:04 PM ET
I think he gets 1 or 2**
Hokie Flyer 03/12/24 03:13 PM ET
That would be even better!**
MC4VT 03/12/24 06:47 PM ET
Zero chance he gets the 1
Hikinghokie 03/12/24 03:31 PM ET
True but I think there is almost zero chance Henson drops to #4 as well.

Not bad really.**
