The link with miaa.org and hope isn't working for video. you have to go to d3hoops.com click on the link part way down the page with scores for the women. Find the Hope game and use that link for video. It will take you to the same page, but for some reason this way has the links on the right for the games....although they are called men's basketball.
Odd....5 minutes later it now says women's basketball.

As a Hope fan I would also like to thank IWU for an enjoyable weekend. We would have liked a better outcome...but it was good times for all. AND.....a short drive.
ENJOY THE OFF SEASON

1. I am glad that a DIII bball game was shown live on TV around the country. Even if it had to be at 3pm, a lot of my friends and family were able to check in and watch the game.
2. I had a great time in bloomington. I love that beer nuts are what paid for the arena. Very cool, although, I could have used a little more leg room.
3. I am choosing to ignore the jacka** making those posts earlier. I'm not sure you are a Hope fan...and I highly doubt you are, but if I know you, send me a message and perhaps you can better explain yourself, b/c right now you are just coming across as ignorant.
4. (Should have been 1)...congrats to coach MO and an amazing Hope program. We are all very lucky to enjoy this AMAZING run over the last 14 years.
5. I don't blame refs. They are doing the best they can in a thankless job....but for a championship game, the NCAA gave us 3 that were not up to the task. I don't know if this is a group, or 3 singles they put together, but they failed on may levels. I don't get as upset over missed calls and such...those happen. But the HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE decison to reset the shot clock as the end of 1st half is WRONG. tipped pass. timout Wash U. Should have been 6 seconds on the shot clock and 32 or so on the game clock....which is what both teams planned for during timeout and TV timeout...then 15 seconds before they put the ball in, one ref went over and had the shot clock reset. COACH MO LOST HIS MIND.....as did myself, fans....you can't do that! What are the rules for resetting a clock? Both teams planned for 6 left on shot clock during timeout and they changed it? Mo just wanted the refs to get together and talk about it...or explain to him the decision. BAD BAD BAD. That play did NOT decide the game, but just an example of refs a bit out of their league....and this is a CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!
6. Agian, CONGRATS TO WASH U ON A CHAMPIONSHIP. Congrats to hope on an amazing run....you gave us all a great treat  HOPEfully we can all be back there next year to enjoy another great run by the FLYING DUTCH!

WOW. What a great article on front page of d3hoops.com I also say THANKS for such a solid article. I know we don't say this enough...but thanks to EVERYONE at d3hoops.com for everything you do to help us enjoy our Div III hoops.
This is a solid solid website that I have enjoyed over the years.
I can't wait for Friday night....GO HOPE!

Does anyone know if my $20 pass for the weekend get me in to BOTH games on Friday? Or will they clear the gym? I assume it is good for both, but I was a little thrown off about Hope getting 3 of the 6 sections.

I just received conformation that Hope is the SECOND game.

To be fair...I read on a different d3 message board that Hope is the first game...so who the heck knows....Below is the Hope link that has them playing at 8pm ET on Friday night.
http://www.hope.edu/pr/athletics/

The Hope website says that Hope is the second game at 7pm CT, 8pm ET???
With the other final 4 at 5pm, 6 ET?

Please advise Pat.

Thanks!

HOPE PLAYS FRI NIGHT AT 8PM ET (first game at 6PM ET)
On Sat, the third place game is at 12 ET and the championship game is at 3pm ET
(per the Hope.edu/athletics website)
Tickets which cover the whole weekend are 20 for adults and 15 for seniors/students.
According to the Hope ticket office, hope has 500 tickets and will be available at 1pm TUESDAY.
Remember, there are always other ways to get tickets...go to ILL WESLY this week and get them if you live down there....or try calling ILL WESLY to buy G.A. tickets.
4 years ago I went to the game and it was all general admission, does anyone have any news if it will be the same for this weekend?
Either way...it's gonna be fun...I plan/HOPE to be there....
GO HOPE!

As a Hope fan sneaking over to your board...we are not upset...and are very excited for a great Sectional...sadly, I will be watching on the internet (but that is better than just radio).
When Hope won it all...EVERY game was on the road...so I believe they can do it again.
Everyone up here is more grumpy about the way the Hope women have been treated by the NCAA in the last decade....not this one instance....where IW has totally earned a right to host.
Congrats to Titans on a great season so far, should be a great weekend.
I will HOPEfully make the trip down there....just not this weekend...but next!
Good luck to all.

Ill-Wes to also host. So THAT is what it would feel like as a Hope fan if the NCAA had given HOPE a chance to host all the way thru during the 2 years finals were in Holland....grrrr.
Oh well, LET'S GO DUTCH!

Sadly, this was expected. Still, it is a shame to think that the flying dutch weren't given the same opportunity the two years the finals were in Holland.
Oh well, let's go Dutch!

I'm not sure about looking at one simple non-call to swing an entire game...
I think one of the big plays was the Hope offensive Rebound at the end of the first half and then the 2 free throws...even though DePauw made a layup at the end of the half to cut it to 9.
This is the first time I have seen the Hope women play since I saw them win the NCAA's a few years ago. In fact, that year I also saw the "infamous" Hope/DePauw game in Greencastle. That is why this victory was extra sweet for the Dutch. There is ZERO love loss (or is it lost???) between these two programs.
Either way...congrats to the dutch and HOPEfully I can attend in Holland next weekend.

How nice to have a video broadcast that actually works Thanks for the link, Sac.
It is nice to see all those Hope fans in the video!
GO BLUE
GO ORANGE
GO HOPE
