I know they were; that's why I wanted to see you have to actually scratch your cranium.  :)

When it comes down to two people of equal talent, it comes down to heart, I don't lose often when it comes to heart.

longtime, no Quaker talk:

Earlhamalum and I were in Richmond to watch Earlham's easy win Saturday. We also decided that we are both traveling to Wooster together if Earlham wins Tuesday at Wabash. Then, we are staying for the finals on Saturday no matter the results on Friday.

Obviously the #4-5 game is supposed to be the most spirited and competitive of the quarterfinal contests. Well, I think tomorrow night will be more than spirited. Earlham, despite the final minute collapses against Witt, Wabash and OWU, has been playing well over the past 3 weeks. Although Denison is fading fast, I was impressed with the way Earlham never let up in the easy win last week. Saturday was similar. Oberlin only once made a small run, cutting a 10-point lead to three midway through the first half. After that, Earlham dominated play on both ends and led by 20+ the entire second half. More encouraging news: Earlham has actually shot the ball fairly well at the line. I know there's been more work put in on that end, it's starting to show.

The last three games in Crawfordsville have all been low-scoring, defensive affairs. Honestly, we could probably just put five minutes on the clock and save both teams a lot of trouble. I'm with you Smeds, it's going to be a close game and free throws/turnovers/second chance points will decide this game in the final minutes. Wish I could be there....but I'm hoping like crazy Earlham pulls this one out so I can see them at least once more this year.
"There's no energy. What is it with you guys? I don't get it. You win one game against a decent team and then you think you just have to show up to win on the road? Now I know why Bob Knight gets caught on film hitting kids on the chin!"

I will miss the conference semis and finals, as I am scheduled to be on days 2 and 3 of my post-bar exam bender those days.  :D

I only have a vague recollection of that week following the bar. And what I do remember is awfully painful. Good times.  :D

The d3hoops top 25 means NOTHING to the selection committee. Because a ranked team or two may be left out this year, anyway.
Wabash Always Fights!

1st round predictions:

Wooster 92, Kenyon 59 (Coach Moore gets technical with Scots up 35, giving Kenyon the cover)
Wittenberg 73, Denison 46 (Big Red stopped caring weeks ago)
Ohio Wesleyan 76, Allegheny 68 (Gators a year away)
Earlham 95, Wabash 94 (Can't pick a school with no women)
