MBB: North Coast Athletic Conference

ps, I really doubt that they care how gentlemanly or ungentlemanly they are. 

You have NO idea how often discussion of the Gentleman's Rule comes up on this campus. It is germaine to a Wabash man to discuss whether an action is gentlemanly or not.

It is germaine to a Wabash man to discuss whether an action is gentlemanly or not.

The Germans have nothing to do with this!

Well T-minus one hour before I depart for Crawfordsville...  Let's Go EC

On Hiram coach Tim Rice resigning:

To me its always a difficult time for a program when their is change at the top unless it has been planned for. He did seem to genuinely care about his players, but a 15 game losing streak can eat on anyone, espcially if their is an expcctation of improvement.  I did notice that Pfouts did not play in the last three games of the season and there was no mention of it in any of the game articles. When a starter suddenly disappears with no comment it might indicate deeper problems.

[smedindy]

I didn't think Pfouts was a regular starter. He started just six games. Perhaps he was hurt?

[goscots]

Maybe - I don't know. The last game he played was at Wooster and he finished that game. Its just speculation on my part.

[smedindy]

I do think they threw in the towel the last few games before Denison. Which is too bad and maybe why he resigned, and of course they won one for him at the end.

With that record, I hope if he interviews again for a job they understand it's Hiram!

[ScotsFan]

I also haven't heard it anywhere in a while, but was anyone in Ohio capping off home-court blowouts with "warm up the bus, warm up the bus"?

My junior year in high school, our team was ranked in the top 5 in the state, and most of our games were blowouts to say the least.  We would start the "warm up the bus" chant for games we knew wouldn't be close during warmups.

[Ryder16]

in high school we always chanted start the busses Or drive home safely... But that was of course one of the few times one of our teams won !

This bites. The Wabash broadcast isn't working.

[billy_pilgrim]

I know it. I just downloaded RealPlayer to listen to the game.

Earlham does have free Teamline.......but I warn you well in advance, you are going to hear the worst broadcast of all time

[woosterbooster]

Wooster leads 13-11 with 11:20 to go.
Haddix to go to the line to shoot two.
Makes the first, then the second. 
13 all. Formato back in.
Johnson finally hits, giving Wooster a 15-13 lead,
under 10 minutes to go.

Van Horn scores on a drive, 17-13.
Aarce hits a long three, 17-17.
Travelling on Bidwell, 8:17 to go.

[billy_pilgrim]

Let me know if that Wabash feed ever gets fixed.......I'd love to switch over, even if it means hearing the hometown broadcast.

Right now.....10 minutes to go in first:

Wabash up 5

[Li'l Giant]

Never mind. Teamline is working now. I'm not so upset anymore.
