MBB: North Coast Athletic Conference

[AndersDY]

If any Wabash fans have hung around in the off-season, maybe you can help us Hope fans out. What the heck is wrong with DePauw folks? I have never seen a spectacle like that at a D3 game, men or women, and what a game it took from our women to play through it, but what in the world? Has the NCAA ever set a precedent for denying hosting rights to a team who can't bring a civil crowd to the game?

when i (bryan nelson) played at wooster  i hoped i could go to the final four. dem boys from witt get straight up nasty sometimes. i (bryan nelson) also heard that russ is goin to the league. alright well im goin to bed so i can hit up hung lung tomorrow

ummmmm pat if you were anywhere near knowledgeable about what is going on campus you would realize that there will indeed be a whole contingent of tigers going this weekend. i will have more thoughts later on tonight guys about the weekend

That's funny - we usually think DPU fans are too busy having cocktails with Bitsy, Miffy and Chip to come watch the games!

I'm a little late to the party, but I wanted to offer congratulations to Witt for making the Final Four.  Getting through that region was no small feat.  Best of luck to Witt in Salem.

Just got back from a trip out of town. Congrats to Witt. Good luck in Salem.

Saturday it appeared that plenty of those cocktails were probably already downed. Hopefully that's the explanation for the garbage they were throwing at the Hope team the entire game. I know Wabash's football games with DePauw are a big deal, are they completely classless in their cheering of the football team too? The folks on the MIAA board are pretty well documenting what was put up with in Saturday's game.

Anybody have a rundown on Witt..... looks like a team that likes to pound to the big boys inside. I see they beat Tufts easily and it took Amherst all they had to get by the Jumbo's. How deep is this squad ? My experience tells me the depth in the NCAC is superior to most leagues,is that still the case ? Looks like Amherst scores more but it also looks like they had a pretty easy schedule. Rebounds will go to the tigers so if they shoot to season %'s they should be in good shape. Appreciate all feedback

Wittenberg plays defense, Amherst likely won't come close to their average.

[pennstghs]

this is going to be another "wooster" type matchup if i must say that ala. amherst has virtually no shot of establishing a low post game-if that is any surprise against us and the key will come down to our guard play. if witt plays defense like they have the past two weekends i am confident that we can do what we need to do to get it done.
