It's also assumed that Purdue won all their matches and were the only team to receive a bye to the semifinals.
It's assumed the team that replaced them was Wichita State because they're closer to Austin than Arapahoe CC and therefore were not mentioned in official qualification/selection statistics.
Purdue would then take the lead and end up claiming the first NIRSA national championship with a 2–1 win over Washington State.
In the group stage finale, Miami (OH) would face Tennessee and would end up losing 3–0, their first loss of the season.
Due to this loss, Miami (OH) would claim the second overall seed and would face Purdue in the semifinals, while Florida would likely play Tennessee, assumed due to the fact that Tennessee was the only team to beat Miami (OH).
