Unfortunately I can not make the semi's tonight.  Good luck to the Scots and keep Corey in your hearts....

Capital holds form (a saves a Pool C bid) by defeating ONU 63-58.

The Live Video of Kenyon/Wooster is $15 tonight?  Is that right?  Is that normally the case for their live video?  If so, that really sucks.

This season Wooster's streaming video has been free (I think Wooster boosters may have picked up the cost).  My guess is that since the tournament is a conference event, NCAC probably controls the live telecast rights (and gets a monetary cut).

As an aside, my grade from CPI live game video is a "D" (one camera almost entirely fixed focus and game announcers who seem to have done little game prep), but from a thousand miles away, I happily watch.

At the Half:   Wooster 52  Kenyon 27  :)

Wooster is being led by Ian Franks with 15 points, Justin Hallowell with 9 points (3 three pointers), Dustin Geitgey with 9 points, Marty Bidwell with 6 points and Matt Fegan also with 6 points.  Nathan Balch is on crutches and will not play tonight.  If Wooster makes the final tomorrow, Balch will also miss that game.  So far, the rest of the Scots are picking up the slack in Balch's absence.  ;)

Top scorers for Kenyon are Dave Jolson with 6 points, Jay Findlay with 6 points and Anthony Chun with 5 points.

Wooster shot 55% in the half compared to only 38% for the Lords.  Scots also made 7 of 15 three point shots.

The Scots are wearing a black band on their uniforms in honor of Corey Cline.

UPDATE:  ~7:30 left:  Wooster 80  Kenyon 55   Scots clearing the bench.    Wooster vs. Wabash tomorrow night!

GO SCOTS!

Just got home from work and all I have to say is Wabash Always Fights! This team was dead in the water just a few weeks ago and will play in the title game tomorrow night. I'm glad the offense finally came around. Let's hope we can put it together one more time tomorrow night.

Unbelievable finish to the half for the Scots - 1 turnover for the half. As I said on Tuesday, they take care of the ball.

Final:  Wooster 89  Kenyon 71  :)

Wooster advances to the tourney finals with a nice win.  Top scorers for the Scots were Ian Franks with 17 points, Marty Bidwell with 15 points, Mike Evans with 15 points, Justin Hallowell with 14 points and Matt Fegan with 12 points.

Kenyon was led by Bryan Yelvington with 14 points but most of those points were in garbage time.  Dave Jolson had 12 points and Anthony Chun also added 12 points.

Congratulations to the four Kenyon seniors (Bryan Yelvington, Allen Bediako, Jim Arce, Dave Jolson) who wrapped up their Kenyon careers tonight.  The Lords finished their season at 16-11.

Wooster made 14 of 28 three point shots and won the rebound battle 40 to 33.

Wooster is now 21-6 ;D  Next up are the Little Giants with a NCAA bid on the line.

Congrats to Wabash! Go Little Giants!

Wooster should be extremely motivated due to last year's semi-final, so the LGs better bring their A++ game.

With all of the carnage going on everywhere (DPU, Guilford, Randolph-Macon, Buena Vista, St. Mary's (MD) all losing) and the WIAC should, by all rights, have 2 C's, then Wooster's margin for error is shrinking.
Wabash Always Fights!

The NCAC controls not just the video (and, for the women, the audio, which is $10), but also the ticket prices ($8).  I believe the conference gets a slice of the ticket revenue, and not just a slice but the whole pie from the women's audio and men's video revenue, with the proceeds used to help pay for these and the other 19 championship events.

A handful of tournament losses thins the Pool C bubble....

While Wooster has been winning impressively I think it is becoming apparent that they need to get the automatic bid.

I know that the Scot faithful remember last years crushing defeat by Wabash, but the only Scot regulars from that team are Marty and Dustin. I think the loss of Corey will continue to be a bigger motivation...

Fifteen bucks is by far the highest I've seen for a D-III live video.

I totally agree!  IMHO, these last two games have to be arguably the best that the Scots have played all season.  I would never have imagined that Wooster, minus Nate Balch, would be up 25 over Kenyon at halftime.  But they did a number defensively on Yelvington in that 1st half.  Really, they did a number on the entire Kenyon team in that 1st half! 

I think a strong case for POTY was made tonight by Ian Franks even though voting has already been cast, I think...  Franks outscored POTY favorite Bryan Yelvington 15-2 in the first half and Yelvington's 2 points came at the charity stripe!  Sure, Yelvington outscored Franks 12-2 in the 2nd half, but the game was, for all intents and purposes, over at halftime with the Scots up 25 points!

Yelvington certainly deserves POTY, but I think Ian Franks made a statement tonight to put him in the front running for next year at the very least!

I think it's outrageous.  Wittenbergish.  Sitting home recovering from an apendectomy, it was an easy choice to listen to the game, free, rather than fork over that much cash for a dubious video flow.  I'm sending half of my negative kudos to the NCAC.
