Conference Affiliations were first verified by the Basketball Records Book. If the team was not listed, then the Final Four Tournament Records Book verified it. The following changes to the database will be made after the 2003 NCAA Tournament: The following teams and years will be changed from Independent to Metropolitan New York: CCNY (1947,1950), Fordham (1953,1954), Manhattan (1956,1958), New York(1943,1946,1960,1962,1963), St. John’s (1951,1952,1961). All of these are listed as independent in the Tournament Records Book. Connecticut (1976) is listed as being in the Yankee Conference in the Basketball Records Book and as both Yankee and ECAC New England in the Tournament Records Book. I will change this from ECAC New England to Yankee in the database. James Madison (1982) is listed as being an Independent in the Tournament Records Book. I will change this from ECAC South to Independent in the database. The following discrepancies were found, but no changes were made: St. John’s is listed in the Basketball Records Book as being a member of the New Jersey-New York 7 from 1977 to 1979. However teams like Columbia and Princeton are listed when they are also in the Ivy League. St. John’s is listed as being in the ECAC Metro in 1977 and 1978 and as an Independent in 1979 in the Tournament Records Book. The ECAC Conferences are not listed in the Basketball Records Book while they have both the conference listing and are listed as an independent in the Tournament Records Book.

2/22/2002: There is a new format for HoopsTournament.Net. Reports can now be accessed at the side instead of having to scroll down to the bottom of the page. I have now completed my next project which is a database with a front-end that generates custom reports. It is a MS Access database. You need at least Access 97 to run it. It is a zipped file. It takes about 2 minutes to download with a 56K modem.
