(Drunk fan and his sons wanted to start a fist fight with our Clarinet player... honestly.  Who takes on the clarinet section?) 

Seriously. They can't even defend themselves with their instruments. Doesn't everyone know how hard it is to find a good reed? 

This one time, at band camp ...

Does anyone know if CSTV will be broadcasting the championship game this spring? I heard they had in the past.

According to the handbook, the chamiponship game WILL be broadcast on CSTV.

[pennstghs]

and according to the monopolized company that is Time Warner Cable 20% of the country who gets CSTV will actually get to see it

I believe you can also watch the game through www.cstv.com for a reasonable fee.

DirecTV and Comcast also have it as part of one of their digital sports packages.

For Wooster to get the win on Friday, they need to contain John Carroll's three key Seniors:

Brandon Mimes - OAC First Team Selection
6'5" Post -- 20.6 points/gm;  10.5 boards/gm; 50% FG Shooting; 49 Blocks

Terry Walsh - OAC Second Team Selection
6'3" Wing -- 16.4 ppg; 6.2 boards/gm; 66 three pointers made (39%); 80%FT

Pete Moran - OAC Honorable Mention
6'0" Point -- 10.2 ppg; 2.8 boards/gm; 146 Assists (~5/game); 80% FT

I would also add 6'4" Forward Rudy Kirbus who has seemed to have somewhat of a coming out party since the NCAA Tournament began.  He's only averaging 6.7 ppg on the season, but he has gone off for 18 points in both of JCU's NCAA Tournament wins. 

Another key for the Scots will be taking good care of the ball when John Carroll runs their full court press.  John Carroll averages over 8 steals per game as they rotate 10-12 players to keep up the defensive pressure.

I asked about this on the OAC board and I don't think the 'hockey style' line changes that we Wooster fans remember from JCU back in the '03 and '04 tournament games is as prevalent with the Blue Streaks this season.  From the looks of their roster, it looks as though they aren't nearly as deep as in years past as they have 4 guys averaging at least 29 mpg.  And in their last 2 games it looks as though Moran has shortened the bench even further. 

Also in regards to their steals per game, Wooster is actually averaging more with over 9 steals per game.  So if they are running a pressing style, it doesn't seem too be overly effective.

I was going to say the same thing. CSTV is 610 if you have DirecTV

This sounds silly but anyone from John Carroll or Wooster has an extra game ticket for Friday's game? Thanks. If interested, send me an e-mail.

[David Collinge]

Attention to those local to Wooster still in need of tickets:

FYI...

I just opened up a new topic in the Multi-Region room concerning this sectional.
http://www.d3sports.com/post/index.php?topic=5165.new#new

It might make it easier for the followers of all 4 teams to discuss the tournament there; one-stop shopping. 

[superman57]

ok I promised it earlier here it is...I forget who did it last year but someone did for the Amherst Sectional and it was really helpful   this is a list of good places for food and for the most part I will try to include google map directions...

Ok first off your one stop places for just about everything that you need

Eastview Mall-the best of the malls in rochester...has the normal food court places

Johnny Rockets-$-relativly cheap chain resturant good burgers a nice atmosphere

Champs-$$$1/2-A more expensive sports bar-it is your place to be if you want to watch any of the games on friday or saturday...lots of tvs and decent food

PF Changs never been there before but have heard decent things about it.

Biaggi's Italion-haven't heard anything about it but here is the websiteBiaggis


and here is the eastview mall website

Pittsford plaza is a great place to go do a little shopping, there is a very nice grocery store, and if you've never been to a wegmans it is a whole new experiance and several of the buildings at fisher are named after the wegmans family... Applebee's is in this plaza along with someother resturants that I'm not familiar with...also a good cheap movie theater  Pittsford Plaza website....this is 5 minutes from the fisher campus....

I will post what I know about Fairport hots because that is where I get my plates...they range from around $6-8or9 depending on how hungry you are...they are good, not the best but definatly good and close to fisher...right next to Fairport hots is Baird Road Pub...last time I heard ex-fisher basketball player Raymie Aumen was doing a little bartending...who knows what he is up to now...this is easy to find you take a left out of the main fisher campus and go two-three miles if you get to the mobile station, a friendly's and a 7-11 you've gone to far it is on the corner of Fairport road and baird road at a light....


anyother questions please ask

Ok, you can only die once, right?  Even if there was no game at all this weekend, I'd be inclined to make the trip to Rochester to try one of these:

Check out this site, too, where they actually review all of the seemingly hundreds of so-called restaurants in Rochester that serve Garbage Plates.

And, of course, how to eat one:
