I was at both the Hope and Calvin games vs North Central. Calvin is the real deal. Hope needs some (Hope) in their defense.
My son plays (sort of) for North Central. Their coach is not a big believer in subbing. Played the whole Hope game with just 3 subs. Almost won but Hope scored with 41 seconds left. Team was pretty beat after 110 minutes. Then to play Calvin the next night, they were able to keep it competitive for about 25 minutes before requiring subs.
Calvin looked more competitive after beating Wheaton than Hope did fresh off the bus. But one never knows which team shows up to play in most matches. This could be the reason for the huge discrepancy with MSOE.
