MBB: Little East

Above find the link for the "live video" on Oswego Lakers All Access. I believe you have to register first, but I think thought it was FREE You access it by clicking on "Fan Zone" off the Oswego State mens basketball site or the Oswego St Athletics site.
Also can access Live stats from Fan Zone location.

Well.... lets put it this way, I successfully registered, then it wanted me to "sign up for a package".  I backed out, then, I went back and signed in and it took me to a page which showed the Oswego hockey game with a "FREE" designation.  Question is if Hockey games are free and NCAA regional BB games are subscription?

Anybody from Oswego St or SUNYAC on line to provide guidance???

Pat will probably explain it at some point.  Once we get to the tournament there are broadcast rights, even though they don't show up on tv.  I think the actual broadcast is pretty tightly controlled.  d3hoops facilitates a lot of the broadcasts for the early rounds, even if local announcers, etc actually do them.

It's pretty complicated, I've never really taken the time to figure it all out.

I expect it will be nailed down by Thursday.

The NCAA will not allow a pay-per-view broadcast in the NCAA Tournament.

I could have sworn I saw on the NCAA website that they will be streaming ALL of the DIII tournament games on their website!

We will be making the drive.  I hope it doesn't snow!

@7 Express  do you know if Western is providing a bus that leaves the campus for students or fans for the game on Friday at Franklin and Marshall which I think is in Lancaster, PA? Being that you are a student there I thought you may know. Thanks for any input. Really enjoy reading your insight on a all these teams especially Western. Would you know put Brooks in at one of the all time top 5 players in Western B Ball history and one of the top 5 players in the LEC in the last 10 to 15 years if not since its inception?  I would!!

I haven't received an e-mail yet.  I know they offered a bus for each of the last 2 women's tournament games which were cancelled due to low ridership (last year received 0 tickets before they cancelled it).  However, there was no e-mail alterting us to a fan bus to Middlebury, so I doubt there will be this time, if I get an e-mail, I will let you know.

Season awards are out, Daquan Brooks player of the year (though you could have given it to Ryan Martin or Nick Nedwick also), Vinny Delucia of Boston rookie of the year, Lance Greene defensive player of the year, Bill Geitner coach of the year.  I can't argue about of the all team selections either: http://littleeast.com/sports/mbkb/2011-12/releases/20120228-mbkb-all-conference

Brooks named player of the year for the 3rd consecutive year in the LEC. Not to mention he obtained rookie of the year in 2009. Arguably the best player ever to play in the LEC Since its inception in 1986, not to mention the best ever to put a Colonial uniform on.  He could have played Division One.  Man I am going to miss watching him play next year at Western. Would have paid admission to watch him play.

Congrats to WCSU's Daquan Brooks for POY and for another outstanding year!!  POY is well deserved!!  Keep it going for the NCAA's!!!
Congrats to Vinny, and Lance as well, and of course to Coach Geitner!!!!

Can' say anything bad about the conference awards this afternoon. Tough choice on the Second team between Hamilton Levy and Jamie Kohn, but Kohn made the all defensive team.

Great recognition for Daquan! Quite a resume. I'm not sure if I am ready to grant him the best player in Little East history. Hard to question that he's not the best SCORER in league history. No doubt. But best player is so much more than that. Non the less quite a career, that hopefully has a few more games left in it!

[WCSUFan14]

Congrats to DaQuan Brooks of winning lec player of the year for his THIRD CONSECUTIVE time!!! Really a historic career! Definitely will be missed! I agree with wcsu91 in saying he's the best player to have ever play in the lec. All around a great player. I hope that we have that bus the wcsu91 is talking about for the game in F&M! Would loveeee a fan bus! Ahhhhh so pumped for Friday!
