MBB: North Coast Athletic Conference

[David Collinge]

Also of note I was incredibly impressed with the Wooster fan contingent. I had forgotten how well my alma mater's supporters travel.

That's true, but it also must be said that Wooster has a large alumni base in and around DC, maybe the largest outside Ohio.

OWU is destroying UPG, up 100-66 with over 3:30 left.
UPDATE: OWU 114, UPG 68. OWU will host Lynchburg tomorrow night.

84-76, Endicott hangs on.  Wooooooooooster (as clearly it should be pronounced, since all announcers outside of Wayne County say it that way) will take them on tomorrow at 7 PM.

Endicott leads Catholic 62-53 with about nine minutes to go.  It would be great for the Scots to have a neutral court game tomorrow.

Your wish is granted 

Final: Endicott 84  Catholic 76

Good season, Big Red, and nice for Wooster and OWU to play tomorrow with good chances of moving on!

Be careful what you wish for. This didn't work out too well for the Scots last weekend.

I was thinking the same thing.  But I'm still quite happy that the Scots avoid the home team tomorrow night and, given the large contingent of Scots fans in attendance tonight, they should be the pseudo home team tomorrow night.

Interesting Final Score:  Gwynedd Mercy 86  Marietta 85   #6 Pioneers are upset on their home floor.

IF Wooster can make it to the Sweet 16, they would face the winner of Gwynedd Mercy vs. Oswego State

If that happened, it would likely be a true road game, unless perhaps if NYU upsets Christopher Newport. With three of the four hosts in this bracket going down, the NCAA might have some geographic conplications for where to put the regional sectional. 

(the regionals are what's happening now.)

Greetings from Africa! Bet you there's never been a post from Harare, Zimbabwe on this board?

Congratulations to both Wooster and OWU on progressing to the next round. I would love to watch both our NCAC teams in action online tonight but the seven-hour time difference is brutal on old me. So best of luck to our teams. Hopefully I'll wake up to another 45-point game tomorrow morning!

I mix them up all the time because in Indiana it's sectional > regional > semi-state > state

[fantastic50]

Pretty much the same thing (sectional to regional to state final 4) in Ohio HS sports. Plus, the NCAA D1 basketball tournament calls the sites for the rounds of 16 and 8 "regionals."  Confusing!

After downing Catholic, Endicott moved up 25 spots in the Massey Ratings.  That puts them at number 198!  For perspective, Kenyon is 153, Wittenbert is 99, and Hiram is 61.

Endicott's SOS is a very weak -9.97, which is, however, not as poor as LBC's -14.91.

Wooster is now ranked 21st and has an SOS of -0.28.

All of which is to say that Wooster is a very solid favorite in tonight's game.  As was Catholic last night.

Anyone else having trouble with the audio or video broadcast of the Wooster v Endicoit from the Catholic website?

I'm listening on WQKT and they're having technical problems too. Probably something site-related.
