I'm not sure about the sportsmanship issues, but UMD filed a protest that was upheld, the game is going to be replayed Friday.

I personally would be worried if UMD was the number 1 seed and hosted the semis and the final, because I wonder if they (we technically) could draw sufficent crowds for the game. Student apathy seems to run in abundance around here.

Umass Dartmouth 84  Plymouth State 80

Umass Dartmouth winning by only 4, it looks like Plymouth really gave them a game. 

Looking at the box score tells me two stories from that game

1) Like the Eastern Conneticut game, they came out ice cold (Matt Walker 4-13 is what sticks to me) and Plymouth State got to race out to an early lead.

2) The second half was a completely different story, as they got their act together and managed to piece together enough runs to overtake the defecit and come out on top.

That's the press release, box score is at the bottom.

I can't help but to look past this weekend at Tuesday's UMD @ RIC matchup. Any thoughts on that anyone? I can see RIC ending the streak.  They'll match speed for speed at the guard spots and their big men really shouldn't struggle to keep Holbrook off the boards. It confounds me sometimes how he gets his double double... regardless, your thoughts anyone?

Having watched Holbrook in person last night I would say he probably gets most of his double doubles off of unlucky shooting, he really should have probably gone for at least 25, but he couldn't get anything to fall early last night. I think UMD and RIC is going to be an amazing matchup (as I mentioned above) I just hope that the teams themselves aren't looking too far into the future like we are

Tonights Results

UMass-D 97 ECSU 92
Keene 80 WCSU 68
Plymouth St 71 UMass-B 65
RIC 70 USM 53

Thoughts headed into Saturday?

Salve 74 Regis 65

I'm personally starting to think that the home and home between RIC and UMD are going to decide the Little East regular season crown, they should be good games, and I hope to make both of them.
