Way to go Puget Sound, keep up the good work!

[Ralph Turner]

With the losses that we saw in the bottom half of the Top 25, and WPI's proximity to #25 coming into the week, and WPI being about 3rd to 5th in the Northeast, the amount of parity that we have in the #20-#60 is amazing.

Ithaca 75 at SJF 66;  Ithaca began to pull away about the 8 minute mark in the game.

Lawrence is beating SNC by 18  (58-40) with 6:38 left.
Larrys 61 SNC 47 3:45 left
Larrys 67 SNC 49 3:02 left (playing at SNC)
Larrys 75 SNC 52 Final!

[Darryl Nester]

magicman -- very kind of you, but I must confess, I never manually look up a score unless it has not been reported to the d3sports.com scoreboard.  My computer program reads the scoreboard from the Web, and compiles the results into the report automatically.

[magicman]

St. Lawrence University 16-4, leader of the Liberty League should be added to the watch list. Current win streak of 6, 12-1 last 13 games, owns a win over #16 Middlebury 84-71 and close loss to # 9 Ithaca

[Mr. Ypsi]

Darryl, per the Ithaca website they defeated Alfred 72-70.  Since it hasn't yet been posted on d3hoops, thought I'd offer that if that is holding you up on "How They Fared" (or did you need the Chapman score also?).

magicman:  My computer program, which recently told me it preferred to be called "Skynet," assures me that there will be room for a few humans in the coming new world order.  So there's still a chance for you ...

Darryl, per the Ithaca website they defeated Alfred 72-70.  Since it hasn't yet been posted on d3hoops, thought I'd offer that if that is holding you up on "How They Fared" (or did you need the Chapman score also?).

Thanks, Mr. Ypsi -- I'd tracked that one down, too.  (How tedious to have to look up scores myself ...)

[oldchap]

I know that Chapman won at Santa Cruz, however the score of 55 to  51 needs to be confirmed.

Chapman 55 - UCSC 51 Confirmed.
