The most amazing finish of any game I have ever announced.  I was literally speechless after that shot

Are you sure about that one?  I find it hard to believe that the NCAA would actually stray away from that.  Maybe someone out there has the manual they can attach a link to
#4
The one on D3Hoops is only the pre-championship manual.   I have the 2011 manual and just wanted to make sure there were no format changes and there don't appear to be any.

Does anyone have a copy of the 2011 NCAA Division III Men's Basketball Championship Handbook.  I need to check the order the introductions, anthem etc.  for my game on Saturday.   I was able to google it in 2011, but can't find it this year

what is the web address for the selection show tomorrow
#7
What are the chances that the selection committee allows Ramapo to host at a neutral site which I believe is Nyack College

Amherst can't host because the women are.
I seem to remember one year where both the men and women of one school hosted the same round..

Not in the sectionals. A year when each played one game on a Saturday? Sure, that's happened before. But not when you would have to have eight teams in the building at once.

I knew it happened, wasn't sure of the specifics.   That would be a logistical nightmare...

Aside from IWU's big win over Hope, what's the next biggest upset of the tourney?

Was it Becker topping William Paterson in the 1st round?

Maybe Carroll U. over Transylvania in the 1st round?

Farmingdale State over Hartwick in the 1st round?

Trinity (TX) over Mary Hardin-Baylor in the 1st round?

Edgewood over River Falls in the 1st round?

I think it could be Carroll over Transy.  Carroll was 4th best in a weak MWC and pulled wins to take the conf. tourney. 

Edgewood over River Falls, possibly, but River Falls isn't very experienced in the NCAAs and Edgewood, despite not winning the NATHCON was supposed to be the best team in the conference.

6 host teams lost in the 1st round, 3 more in the 2nd round.  I think that's correct.

I would say Becker over William Paterson.   Where is Becker from?

William Paterson better figure out how to turn their game around or they're going to be watching tomorrow's game from the stands.  They are getting spanked by Becker 60-47 3:53 left

I am surprised that NYU who lost 3 of their last 5, got an at-large bid.  Stockton goes 4-1 down the stretch and has a tougher schedule and doesn't get in..
Last 5 games is not a criterion for the tourney.

But isn't strength of schedule.  They even made a not of that on the selection show what NYU's was not strong ..  So how you finish down the stretch has absolutely no bearing on selection to the tournament.

Stockton lost most of their games early in the season, losing 4 of their first 5 games and then went 18-4.   NYU started strong but didn't play well down the stretch.   It may not be an official criteria but losing 3 of 5 and 5 of 10 has to be considered when handing out bids.

Just sayin...

IMHO Stockton should get in, they would cause a lot of havoc, but their record will be their demise. (8) loses will not do it. If they beat Willy P the NJAC would have (2) in. In any event, below are my (19) to make the dance beside the AQ'S, Not in any order :

1.St. Joe's (LI)   
2.Hartwick
3.Hobart
4.NYU
5.Wittenberg
6.Keystone
7.Wheaton
8.Transylvania
9.Lale Forrest
10.Concordia (WI)
11.Middleburry
12.RIC
13.W.Conn
14.MHB
15.Birm-South
16.R-M
17.Emory
18.Tex-Dallas
19.UWW

Let's see how I do.

Very surprised Stockton didn't get in.  I would think they had a tougher strength of schedule than NYU

Looks like the same old crap with Montclair. They did pretty well and even took down Ramapo in the last game of the year when they knew they were not elegable for the NJAC Tournament. You think Coach Fiore would have registered Montclair for the ECAC'S and give the team something to shoot for. They still have until 5:00PM today. I guess not I'm not going to hold my breath. Same went for the Football program this year. I just don't get it. >:(

Many of the teams are opting out of the ECACs with the mentality of it's either the NCAA's or nothing.  Some schools can't be eligible because of when they start their season.  It has to do with the number of weeks your season runs.  That automatically knocks some teams out from the start. Not sure what Montclair's situation is, but my feeling is you get the kids into whatever post season tournament you can..
