WUPHF, perhaps so.   Have to say, though, that my Dad's group at IWU in the early 40s pulled off some pretty good pranks, once getting a Model T Ford up the stairs in the old Hedding Hall on the IWU Quad -- before it burned down during my Dad's senior year.  I do wish the current cohort of students would have some more fun, pull off some creative pranks and rivalries.  We had ISU's Victory Bell stored out on a farm some miles east of Bloomington for over three weeks, before finally returning it via our cheerleaders back to the ISU cheerleaders.  It was chained to the front of Stevenson Hall for a day or two, for one of our rallies on the Quad before an ISU-IWU game.    The County Sheriff (who had been head of Security at IWU) was after us, but no one gave up the gig . . .  the main ringleader of that "gang" later became a federal narcotics agent. . .  so there you go.  The value of a liberal arts education . . .

Probably because the leadership at IWU subscribes to the "No Fun Allowed" policy.

After attending the IWU @ NP game last week, I've been meaning to mention the Chicago skyline court is awesome.

Around the conference tonight:

Carthage 77, North Park 64 in the Crackerbox
Illinois Wesleyan 80, Elmhurst 76 at Faganel
North Central 73, Augustana 68 in the Hangar
Wheaton 94, Carroll 73 on the Illinois side of the border

Millikin is idle.

IWU lost

 31-31 after a disgusting first half for both teams in Chicago.

Bob, thanks for posting each venue's COVID spectator policies next to the games on the schedule. I'm looking forward to attending my first game in about 3 years tomorrow at North Park, a nice and short 10 minute drive from my NW side abode.

Maybe a better question for Greg....will I be allowed to bring in a backpack and/or a yeti filled with water?

Thanks

Could someone compare Yeshiva's opponents thus far to teams that are more local?

Congrats to Elmhurst. Very nice regular season.

Nice live stats.  Not a fan if our team doesn't play no video.  Including when Wheaton does it.  CCIW needs to fix this if a school plays video for itself they should provide it for others in tournaments.

Ummmm

Possible upset alert from B'town:  IWU leads NCC, 42-34, at the half.

Is it that big of an upset though? Yes, NCC is ranked #13 but it's always tough to go on the road vs a competent team like IWU. I'd call it a slight upset.

St Charles North Wing, Lucas Hellen, has committed to play basketball at Illinois Wesleyan.  IWU is putting together a fantastic recruiting class thus far.

Who else is part of it?

I won't feel too bad if IWU doesn't get in, because NCC is clearly the superior team at this point in the season.

Brady Rose.  Woof.

Chuck, that joke would be a whole lot funnier if there actually was an institution of higher learning called South Park. ::)

Picturing Eric Cartman guarding Colin Lake is pretty funny to me.

AO, what happened to Henry?  An injury?

By the way he started that paragraph I thought he passed away

I don't think IWU fans are really complaining as it isn't that big of a deal. More like questioning.
