Wind at his back, but yeah it was a bomb. Unfortunate for Hope, I thought we played really well and controlled much of the game. Wartburg definitely had their chances and put a couple away, but it was a tough battle. Congrats on another good season Hope!

Huge win tonight for the boys at Hope.

I felt completely comfortable with the the way the game was playing out until the last 5 min or so where we had no idea how much time was actually left due to the video not showing. After they scored their desperation goal it got very interesting.

Good luck tomorrow Dutchmen!

I don't know where you were looking, but according to Hope's athletic page he has 8 assists on the year. He has definitely racked up his fair share of assists over his 4 years.

No, Grant didn't score or get an assist in the MIAA tournament championship, but he did gut out a great performance and converted his PK in the shootout. Hopefully it will be a while before he can join the bball team due to his commitment with soccer.

His many assists throughout the soccer seasons did come from his long throw in as displayed in the Hope v Calvin bball game last year.

After a rough start, Hope has rattled off 4 wins in a row with 2 nice ones over Wheaton and Dominican.

The biggest test will come on Tuesday.

The 0-3 start for Calvin could be very deceiving, they are going to be a strong team again this year. They lost to three very good teams in Loras, Kenyon, and Ohio Wesleyan. Coach Souders seems to be taking the Tom Izzo approach and battle testing his team pre-league so that they are ready if/when they play in the tournament.

Let's go Hope.

If anyone knows of any of the other teams making the tournament as well I will take corrections.

Can anyone tell me what on earth is going on in Olivet right now? The stats are blowing my mind.

I will be at the game, so it doesn't matter as much to me. But that is great news for all those who can't get tickets and/or live in a far off land

Does that mean Hope is actually broadcasting a video stream or is it the "we're ok we will be broadcasting on the radio"?
