MBB: American Rivers Conference

[doolittledog]

Simpson leading Dubuque 36-32 at the half. 

OT in Dubuque tied at 74.  Simpson has been on fire from the floor over the last 10 minutes or so. 

Double OT in Dubuque tied at 82.

Simpson wins in double OT 95-87.  Simpson just played an excellent game.  It's not anything Dubuque did bad, the Storm just shot lights out to end the game.

NORSE OVER DUTCH 63-60.

Central announcer did a great job.  Few words but descriptive and even handed.  Not a "homer".
Seems Luther included a player who had not been in many games that helped them to stay out of foul trouble. 

Congrats to Central on a fine season.

Why didn't Cornelius Mosby play?

Congratulations to Luther on an excellent win last night.  Sounds much the same as the Simpson-UD game in that I thought the Dutch played pretty well, Luther just played enough better.  Congratulations to the Dutch seniors that gave Central a 4th place conference finish instead of the 8th place predicted.  You have set the Dutch on the right path and put forth a great example for the younger players to follow.  We graduate some terrific players, but I am excited about some of this year's younger players as well.  It sure would be nice to get some height, going against those 6-9 guys is a little tough when you don't have the height to go one on one.

From Simpson news release

• "... Simpson shot 56.3 percent from the field while holding Dubuque to 35.8. Despite the absence of the conference's leading rebounder (Mosby) – who did not play due to conduct detrimental to the team – the Storm held a 48-40 edge on the boards.

He's no longer listed on the Simpson roster.

Interesting that he is no longer on the roster, yet scored 15 points tonight against Simpson in the IIAC semi-finals.

Now that's what I call "conduct detremental to the team!!!"

LOL!

Mosby did play tonight ... for Simpson, the school at which he's enrolled. He had a double-double (17 and 15) in the Storm's loss to Buena Vista. But his name is still missing from the Simpson roster.

Woo-hoo! I scored UD/Luther tickets! 

I was forgetting the game was in Dubuque...safe travels...wave at the camera tonight!!!

Fog scuttled trip - webcastration tonight

Webcastration n. - frustration watching buffered webcasts

Squirrels ... or so says the Mediacom cable guy as to the likely culprits that chewed off the plastic shielding protecting my aerial cable service thereby slowing down my internet connection and cause of my webcastration.
