MBB: Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[Greek Tragedy]

Cal Lu was actually 0-2 v. Occidental on the season.

Thanks for the catch, it's been edited.

Which makes Cal. Lutheran's argument even less convincing.

To specify: Rock Carter of Whittier represents the SCIAC and Mark Sundquist of George Fox represents the NWC to the regional committee.

Pat, are these representatives elected by their peers?  And if so, how long is the term they serve?

Game on!!

What a half! Oxy was down big and then comes roaring back to pull within 2 at half.

Sounds like Pomona was up 24-9 in the 1st half, then Oxy closed on a 13-0 run to make it 24-22.  Hens may have missed a chance to bury Oxy in the 1st half.

I believe recommended by the conference office but you can also nominate yourself. The term is two or three years, though if you get elected regional chair then you're on for another couple years.

Is this a defensive struggle or is it just a bad offensive performance?  Other?

Those of us who are Cal Lu supporters knew our situation was bleak after the loss to PP in the first round of the conference tourney.  The tone of your post suggests that Cal Lu was a second tier team that choked away several big games this season.  That is simply not the case.  In addition to winning a share of the regular season conference championship, I would argue that the Kingsmen had the best non conference season of any D3 team on the west coast.  This year's CLU team was one of the best SCIAC teams I've seen in recent years; a fact that only makes it more frustrating to miss out on the Tourney.

Does all of this mean I don't understand why they got left out? No.  All of us understand that on the west coast the only sure thing is the conference autobid, and we lost our shot at that when we lost to PP.  Are we frustrated?  Yes.  Whining?  No.

Not intended to say that about CLU at all.  I know they are a very good team and would have been a dangerous tourney team.  Not second tier, no way.  Sorry it came across that way to you.   CLU could have been given the last pool C and no one would have complained at Wheaton.  So why didn't they?  Simple, because SCIAC wasn't sending 3 teams, no way no how.  Doesn't really matter where CLU or OXY was in regionals.  Is that right?  I don't know, but PP getting in killed CLU's chance.  So my point is they had their future in their own hands and stumbled, unfortunately Oxy did too.  Bad break, that's D3 hoops.

Whining wasn't directed at CLU, I don't think they have.  Other posters have made more of a "screw job occuring"

Good luck to the SCIAC winner tonight.  Either team will present and face a tough challenge Sat.
