Will the games be video streamed?  If so, does anyone know the link?

According to the ASC website, you can find the games online at the following link on College TV Ticket for free. Here's the quote from the website.

The entire eight-team, single elimination event will be available for fans through free live video streaming with audio provided by College TV Ticket (collegetvticket.com).  The direct link for all seven games is here.


"College TV Ticket takes great pride in the selection by the American Southwest Conference as the web distribution network for their 2010 ASC Women's Basketball Championship Tournament," said Dennis Jacobs, president of CTVT, which is in its third season of webcasting Division III and Division II sports to alumni and parents of student-athletes.

LC will have a tournament page on www.lcwildcats.net and the conference will have a "Tournament Central" page on www.ASCsports.org where the links to video can also be accessed as well as those for live stats, box scores, game recaps, photos and updated brackets.

HSU does still have to beat TLU Saturday to get to LC... but thanks to McMurry beating TLU last night, they have the opportunity.

That game was irrelevant to who got into the tournament.

How was it irrelevant? If TLU had won, would the records of HSU and TLU not be the same? Then since they split, the records against other division opponents in ranked order would decide the tiebreaker (If I read correctly). The way I understood it was that if TLU had won either of their games last week, they would have had a chance to go to the tournament.

Congrats to the teams that made the tournament. I saw that HSU managed to beat TLU pretty handily so they will be making the trip to Pineville as well. I just wish the tournament was closer so that I could watch some games! I am NOT making the trip out, but I wish safe travels to all those who are! I know that it is supposed to snow in the Abilene area Tuesday, so I hope that McMurry and Hardin-Simmons are able to leave without having to deal with icy road conditions.

Best of luck, everyone!

I don't know about UT-Tyler, but TLU hasn't managed to beat a team with a winning record since the start of the season back in December, except for HSU (and that only by 1 point in OT -- and at a time in the season when HSU still had more conference losses than wins).  This week, it faces both McM and HSU on their home turf, and while it needs to beat only one of them to get into the tournament, that could be a long shot.

You say that about TLU, but look at the schedule. The only teams they have played with winning records since that HSU game are UMHB who leads the West conference, and HPU who is second. And they didn't get blown out by either of those teams. But they DID beat LC and MC at the beginning of the season, in Seguin granted, but beat them nonetheless. I'd say the games on both Thursday at McMurry and Saturday at HSU should be interesting. As it was once said, "Anyone can beat anyone on any given day."

I haven't gotten to see any East teams play, but from the scoring I can't really even tell. Just by watching a West game though (i.e. HPU & McM Saturday) you can tell that the West has gone down a lot. HPU was National Champions a few years ago! McMurry was conference champions! They are not even close to that right now. What's gone wrong? Is it recruiting? Coaching? In some cases I think it has been a combination of those. Because I'm not as closely associated with the East, I can't really even say if they have gotten much stronger. I can say though that they West is significantly weaker than in recent years past.

I've managed to make three McM games so far this year, but I haven't been as impressed with them as I have been in the past. I expected the HPU game to be a lot closer than it was. It seems to me the entire west conference has gone down recently. Do we even have anybody in the top 25? It should make the conference tournament interesting.

The McM/TLU game should be a good one on Thursday, even though McM beat them by quite a bit last time I think. Both teams will have plenty of motivation to play well I would think. I just hope I get to see it!

I think a 16 - 5 record will win the West this year.  (HPU)

18 - 3 will win the East.  (UT-Dallas)

Let's look at this.  Games against the Top 5.

Team	Conference	Overall Record	Games Remaining vs. Top 5	Conference record if Home team wins all games against the Top 5, and no upsets by CTX, SRSU and SU
Mary Hardin-Baylor	9-3	12-4	H/A McM, H/A HSU, TLU, at HPU	15-6
Howard Payne	8-4	12-4	H/A McM, H/A TLU, at HSU, UMHB	14-7
McMurry	7-4	10-5	H/A HPU, H/A UMHB, at HSU, TLU	14-7
Texas Lutheran	7-5	8-7	H/A HPU, at UMHB, at McM, at HSU	12-9
Hardin-Simmons	5-6	8-7	H/A UMHB, McM, TLU, HPU	14-7

It looks like TLU will have the toughest schedule left having to play the four other top teams on the road. I guess it will be interesting to see.

Wow! This really throws a curve at the West! Saturday should be a really good game! I might have to make my way to Brownwood to see it!

I think HPU will win the West.  Who knows who will win the tournament.  My guess UT-Dallas will host.  HPU has beaten them twice this year.  If HPU plays their game, Yes they are capable of being the out right champs for the 4th year in a row. 

HPU is going to have to beat UMHB next time they play though. I wasn't there, but I understand the game in Belton was pretty close. The shooting percentages looked pretty good as well, especially UHMB's from behind the arc. I'm curious to see how the ASC will turn out this year.

The entire ASC seems somewhat tipsy-turvy this year! Just look at all the who-beat-who matchups! LC and MC beat HPU, but TLU beat both of them! Ozarks beat McM, but lost to SRSU. It just seems a little bit crazy. Though as it always is, anyone can beat anyone on any given night!

I heard all of this about Ozarks going to be a good team and going to win games, how they almost beat HPU, then see that they get beat by SRSU? Explain that!
