Feels good to have our road games against our fellow top 5 teams behind us. 2-2 is a great record to have for those 4 games as well.

Explanation of possible outcomes:
North Dakota State: could technically move up into the Summit League Tournament by winning out and having SDSU lose to winless North Dakota (not a likely scenario)
South Dakota State: could move up into 5th by winning out (possible) and KC losing out (likely). At that point the tie-breaker would be interesting, as both teams would have identical w/l records against all other teams....It might go to total sets won?
Kansas City: would need to beat both Denver and Omaha to move into 4th, with ORU losing those same matches (unlikely) because ORU wins the tie via their win over USD earlier.
ORU: would need to win out with Denver losing out (unlikely) to move into a tie with Denver. Denver would win a tie due to their records vs SDSU.
Denver: Cannot now win the title with Omaha beating USD. Denver loses ties with both Omaha and South Dakota, but could pull into 2nd place with the BYE if USD loses a remaining match (unlikely).
South Dakota: Cannot now win the title. SD loses a tie with Omaha due to Omaha's two wins against Denver. Must win out to stay in 2nd and get a BYE (likely).
Omaha: Has locked up the one-seed, and a share of the title. Will win the title outright with one more match win.

Current RPI for Summit Teams:
#78 Omaha
#79 USD
#84 Denver
#136 Kansas City
#157 SDSU
#190 ORU
#223 NDSU
#291 UST
#300 WIU
#322 UND
So, no at-large consideration this year. If USD had won a few more Non-con matches, it might have been possible.
Got to win the SLT.
OTOH, I know nobody wants to talk about it, but the NVIC tournament (VB version of WNIT) will be happening this year again after a year off. To qualify you have to either have a top-120 RPI, or a winning record. So the top-6 Summit teams would qualify (not NDSU).

KC just beat Denver! That was unexpected.
-now SDSU cannot move up into 5th.
-now USD could lose a match and stay in 2nd place.
-now KC could move into 4th, but probably not (not a big difference between 4th and 5th anyway).
