Providence is tied with Harvard but let's assume for simplicity's sake that they're gone.

Brackets

WORCESTER (BU)
1 BU
2 BC
3 St. Cloud
4 Harvard

PROVIDENCE
1 Cornell
2 Maine
3 NoDak
4 CHA/MAAC

ANN ARBOR (Michigan)
1 UNH
2 Ferris
3 Michigan
4 OSU

ST. PAUL (Minny)
1 CC
2 Minny
3 Mankato
4 CHA/MAAC

This gives us two problems: Ferris/Michigan and Minny/Mankato.  Swapping Ferris and Mankato, even though it swaps a 2 with a 3, eliminates the problem.

So, revised western brackets:

ANN ARBOR (Michigan)
1 UNH
2 Mankato
3 Michigan
4 OSU

ST. PAUL (Minny)
1 CC
2 Minny
3 Ferris
4 CHA/MAAC
