All MIAA teams announced - Verkaik is named the MVP.

http://www.miaa.org/wbb/

I'm more than a little surprised to see only two Hope women on the All-MIAA team ... what am I missing here? Seems like all five Dutch starters (as well as a few off the bench) would start on any other MIAA team.  

All-MIAA First Team
Philana Greene, Hope
Anna Kammrath, Saint Mary's
Melissa Shaw, Albion
Carrie Snikkers, Hope
Brook Van Eck, Calvin
Carissa Verkaik, Calvin

All-MIAA Second Team
Sydney Beckwith, Alma
Kelley Murphy, Saint Mary's
Jennifer Perrin, Adrian
Danielle Senf, Trine
Anita Stamps, Adrian
Olivia Yarrell, Olivet

What Calvin students??  I'm embarrassed as an alum of that school for the student support that the team gets. I counted 24 students in the student section today at tip off.  There needs to be a change in culture, I think, for the incoming freshman, but I'm not sure how you can do that.  That amount of support for a team that is tied atop the standings is a disgrace.

Looks like they were resting between the Sem Pond Jump (600+ students) and AirBand 2010 (1,300+ students). This was along with nearly 700 students at Tuesday's Calvin Improv troupe's show.

A quick scan of posts that have complaining about officiating or a call  Hope-5 Calvin-4

Thanks for the smile.

I doubt this is a sell-out given that classes will not be back in session yet.

FYI. Wed Jan 06 is Calvin's 1st day of classes ... the rivalry game on the 30th is during a Thurs-Sun break at Calvin.

I'm curious as to how Calvin's move to the Central Region might have affected it this year. Certainly they couldn't pull it off against the region's best teams: They lost consecutive games to Chicago, Wheaton and Wash U. One of the biggest criticisms in the past has been that they have run away with an MIAA conference that didn't challenge them. Calvin certainly had the strength of schedule this year, but it looks like the Knights will be just a step below the postseason.

The Knight's surprising run continues today with a 7 p.m. Wash U rematch.

MIAA Volleyball Tournament semifinals and finals postponed

Friday's and Saturday's matches in the MIAA volleyball tournament have been postponed until Tuesday, Nov. 11.  Commissioner David Neilson has determined that the matches will be conducted on Tuesday in a triangular format at Hope College's DeVos Fieldhouse.

semifinals:
3 p.m.  Adrian v. Hope
then     Alma v. Calvin

championship:
8 p.m.  semifinal winners

A backup site will be designated if health prohibitions at Hope College have not been lifted. The Ottawa County Health Department, in consultation with the state of Michigan and federal Centers for Disease Control, have ordered Hope College to prohibit assembly of people on campus and at sporting events. They have also prohibited the travel of Hope student-athletes to other sporting events. The prohibitions will be reviewed Tuesday morning, Nov. 11.

Honest question, though.  Will Hope hang a final four banner up?  Just wondering....

Sometimes I wish Calvin would to make it look more like a d1 feel.

Heard today if one of Tuesday's games are postponed, all will be postponed to double headers on Wednesday.

a big game saturday vs calvin  maybe a big crowd at the devoss  snickers might be back saturday

Oddly, Calvin has Homecoming with their women on the road in Holland.  They usually travel fairly well to DeVos for this game.

You can listen to the NCAA races on Calvin's Sports Information site.
