MBB: Liberty League

[rjcarter8]

Man I pray that WPI and Salem St win those weak a$$ conference tournaments like the MASCAC & NEWMAC.  It will frustrate me so much if one of those teams get in with a pool c bid.  Last yr in the dance if you look at it WPI beat the newmac team Bridgewater by 17 and then Utica destroys WPI and their gaudy 23-3 record by 18.  Know its a different year but if you look at one common thread this year Clarkson pounded Castleton St by about 18 or so and Castleton is 9-5 in the MASCAC.  Don't really know as much about the NAC or the LEC but I believe they are not as strong as the Liberty , E8 or SUNYAC. The NESCAC with Amherst, Trinity and Bates is a true power conference but that's the only New England Conference that deserves multiple bids without question.  As for the LL tournament I think the key if the first round.. If Hamilton falls asleep against Union and Union shoots the lights like they did against Clarkson who knows?  If Hamilton doesn't look ahead and takes care of business I think either Vassar or SLU will fall to the Conts with an NCAA bid on the line in front a raucous home crowd.

b4, I completely agree. If Hamilton wins its first round game against Union, the Conts will win the tourney. Obviously, they have to win the first rounder to have that chance, but what I mean is that Hamilton will have no trouble in the championship if they make it there.

I was on the Hamilton website looking at stats and found it interesting that SLU is 3-3 against tournament field, Vassar is 2-4, and Union is 1-5, meanwhile Hamilton is 6-0, I agree w/ carter if Hamilton gets by Montana then its over.I didn't see anywhere that TK got POY but i knew he would, where is the press release?

I'll be at all the games this weekend. Since I only need to amble down .5 miles from my apartment to the pub and then over to the game.

Oh, and here's the link.

Also, does anyone find it interesting that Vassar had the most kids on the All-Academic Team and the only school to didn't have any was Hamilton.

Interesting, yes.  Really surprising?  No.

[FisherDynasty]

Bamm i agree, those new england conf. are weak (excluding nescac).  There are so many conferences up there as well, itd be a shame if there are a lot of upsets in the conf. tourny's.

[woot returns]

what are the requirements to get on the all-academic team? does anyone know?

[d3lifer]

Does anyone know if tonights games are going to be broadcast on the radio?

[DDirty22]

[bucketsallday]

is that just for the hamilton game or for the st lawrence vassar game as well

[rjcarter8]

I'm not sure, but I know it will work for the Hamilton-Union game.

Hoaf and other attendees-  saw that SLU probably helped its pool c cause(should it not win tomorrow of course) .  How was the game? Score indicates it was pretty tight.

Anyone have a score from Hamilton vs. St. Lawrence??

Anyone have a score from Hamilton vs. St. Lawrence??

Can't find a men's live stats page and not in a place where I can have audio going, but congrats to the Hamilton women for knocking off SLU on the road and advancing to the dance.

[Hoaf]

St. Lawrence comes back late and wins by 1 over Hamilton, 65-64.

Congrats to the Lady Conts for beating SLU!!!
