Two WIAC teams going to the Final Four in Salem in UW-Stout and UW-Oshkosh.

I do not envy Stout having to prepare for NYU, while Oshkosh gets a rematch with Smith.

Quote from: Greek Tragedy on Yesterday at 04:14:12 AMOutside of an injury, I don't think any seniors are eligible for a 5th year as this was the last year of the so-called free COVID year. I could be wrong though. That's why I basically noted who were seniors, assuming none are returning.

I'll leave it up to tomt4525 to post the recruits and incoming transfers etc.

Off the top, may look like this:

La Crosse

Oshkosh/Stevens Point

Platteville

Whitewater/Eau Claire

Stout/River Falls


Greek, I think Eau Claire will be way higher, certainly in top four home game territory. From what I saw this year I'm a big believer in Renta the job Malvik has done already.

Aiden Hawkinson 6'2 G from Waupun committed to UW-Oshkosh this morning.

Not hyperbole to say that was the best win of Fischer's career. Titans of UW-Oshkosh win it by 20.

I wonder what former Neenah Rocket Brady Corso is looking for in the portal. Would be a big boost to any WIAC that could land him.

Played on the 21-22 Rockets with Paider and Thomas.

I see the Bonduel Bears beat Southern Door tonight. What did Drew Daoust end his career at? 3k points and how many more?

Quote from: Voice of the Titans on March 12, 2025, 11:30:34 AMThe former coach in me decided to watch some game film. I can say that IWU is everywhere. I walked out of my classroom for lunch, and I was in the middle of a trap. 59 is their lowest total of the year. Can UWO hold them around there? IWU has 2 averaging 15, but I think the key is keeping the 2 that average 11 under 7. If you can do that, it would be an elite performance.

As my former Marshfield neighbor says, #InBradWeTrust.  He is quickly becoming the Bo Ryan of D3 women's basketball. 

Countless first weekend regionals success for UWO and Fischer. Unfortunately, just a 1-5 second weekend sectional record.

Quote from: PauldingLightUP on January 29, 2025, 02:17:39 PMComing over from CCIW board, Oshkosh is at NCC week 2.

Going to be a total 180 for the Titans in 2025, who had three nonconference home games in 2024 and are going to have three nonconference road games 2025.

It is expected Oshkosh will return the game to Michigan Tech week 3.

Maybe only saving grace is they had three conference home games in 2024 and will have four in 2025.

Unfortunate they couldn't get NCC to come to Oshkosh in year one of the home and home, but sometimes you have go on the road first to make the agreement work.

Actually I got bad information this fall about the Oshkosh-Tech series. Michigan Tech posted their schedule and it doesn't include Oshkosh. Oshkosh will host a game September 20, opponent TBA.

NCAA Division II Roosevelt the home opponent for Oshkosh September 20.

Full schedule announced.

Quote from: ChickenHoops on March 06, 2025, 02:41:01 PMNot optimistic for the Lady Dawgs. Chickens doing well but will have to livestream.

WPCN's Scott Krueger agrees with you. Not even making the trip to cover UWSP women. Staying in town to cover SPASH.

Quote from: faunch on March 05, 2025, 02:21:20 PMWill video streaming be free or are they requiring ESPN+ like football?

First and second weekends are free on ncaa.com. Third weekend in Fort Wayne on ESPN+.

All WIAC men's team is posted. Lot's of La Crosse and Platteville on the first team as expected. Josiah Butler, Carter Capstran, Carter Huschka, Zac Johnson, and Andre Renta the non Pioneers and Eagles.

Top three awards as expected. Logan Pearson player of the year, Joey LaChapell newcomer of the year, and Jeff Gard coach of the year.

UW-La Crosse schedule page confirms the Greenville game at the La Crosse Center. Glad the Eagles get to host still, bummer they aren't truly at home.

Conference gymnastics at Mitchell Hall.

Five WIAC teams in the tournament is absolutely nuts!

Hopefully they can keep everyone in different first weekend pods.
