Find me courtside if you can.

Will do and look forward to meeting you in the flesh on Thursday. Assuming the Fort Wayne War Memorial isn't dry (D1 games definitely ARE NOT), first round is on us.

I appreciate that, but I'll be working, so ... I might have to decline.

Quote from: Nescacman on March 16, 2025, 04:33:19 PMWe'd be remiss if we didn't also congratulate Hartford State on making their 2nd straight final four. Not an easy thing to do.

What's not easy, making consecutive final fours or congratulating Trinity?

Regardless, I'll echo the congratulations... always great to see the NESCAC winning on the national stage.

On that note, shoutout to the 4 NESCAC hockey teams still playing as the NCAA quarterfinals approach this weekend. Those would be Hamilton on the men's side, and Middlebury, Amherst, and Colby on the women's.

We think you know the answer to that...

Congratulations to our good friend, Coach Mike Whalen, on being named the NACDA D3 Athletic Director of the Year. Well deserved honor.

Since Whales joined Wes in 2010 as Head Football Coach, he's had an amazing impact on Cardinal football and the Wesleyan athletic program as a whole: 2x NESCAC champs, 6x Little 3 champs, and 82-37 overall record. National titles in MLax, WTen, and Crew. Numerous other Little 3's, NESCAC team titles, and individual NESCAC titles. His plaque in the Wesleyan Sports Hall of Fame awaits! Williams loss was our gain. Maybe the biggest mistake in Eph history was letting Whales leave (and then hiring HCOF Kelton). #rollcards
