Why was UNCW home today? Both were home on Friday


If both teams have been home and away the same number of games, there's a coin flip to decide the home team. UNCW won the coin flip and was the home team against us.

It's hard to believe that in 2015 athletics, a coin flip is used a tiebreaker when there are so many other factors which could be used.

Seeding, conference winning percentage, RPI, SOS, etc.

Any idea if the flip decides who is the home team, or does the team that wins get to decide if they want Home/Away?

A little gamesmanship, I would always chose Away for the "marble game", so I can have the Home game for the 1st game of championship day.
