I found it!!! 8)

Olivet to Carthage by "msn.mappoint.com shortest distance" takes the ferry!

162 miles!  9 hrs 47 minutes!

what ferry? Muskegon?   So I guess they don't cover the miles over water since its 100 miles + from Olivet to Muskegon.

Apparently, they don't want to drive northwest to Muskegon to ferry to Milwaukee only to drive so far south to Wheaton. 

[Mr. Ypsi]

April, sorry!  Driving down from Milwaukee would be longer than just going south of the lake!

So does this make Hope and Carthage the only 2 schools in  D3 that have to drive more than 200 miles for an in-region game that qualifies as under 200 miles?

Funniest thing is Hope/Carthage was not in-region for the last 2 years.  The Muskegon ferry has been in service at least that long.

Final:  #5 Wooster 90  Hiram 73

Wooster actually led by 30 points until they cleared the bench and Hiram's starters narrowed the final margin.

Wooster was led tonight by Evan Will with 15 points (12 boards), James Cooper with 14 points, Tom Port with 13 points (8 boards), Marty Bidwell with 10 points and freshman Robert Melick also with 10 points.

Wooster is now 19-3, 12-1 NCAC    

GO SCOTS!

As I said before, they screwed this up in the past. I am sure that once I bring it to their attention, it will get fixed.

The JHU loss does not surprise me.  The game vs. Ursinus is for the regular season title.

And I'm blaming the NCAA committee for that - seeing as how they gave Hope the in-region loss prior to the game being played   

[sludge]

I always see about a zillion UW-* teams in the top 25.  Are these teams really that good?  It seems improbable, but it could be true.
