I agree, but the fee is determined by the NCAC.

Oh, I know.  I'm glad the league has time to find creative ways to jam the fans but apparently not enough time to rework a football schedule into something sensible in 2011.  Priorities! 

Why can't the host institutions run these games in their own standard and customary ways?  If your school typically charges admission, let them.  If not, then so be it.  If they typically offer a video stream why not let them do it? 

If it's a matter of cost to the league and the league can't afford to put on this tournament without sticking it to the loyal fans for something that most schools are now offering gratis, then maybe the league should reconsider whether or not having a tournament is really something they should be doing.  There are pros and cons to having a conference tournament (mostly cons, IMO), but in front of any debate about that comes the cost issue.  If you can't afford it, don't do it.

Just listen to the radio broadcast and watch the live stats....or go to the game---the video streams are usually not clear anyway---

GO WITT

Good luck to all four NCAC teams in action tonight.

I hope both games are competitive and played well.

WOW!!!!! What a game!

Wittenberg 61 Wabash 60 ---- looks like we may have a rivalry final if Wooster can take car eof business.

This game was a game of halfs and hot shooting. Wittenberg led by as many as 17 points but Wabash came back to tie the game late and had the lead at 60-59 with under a minute to go. Mike Cooper for Witt missed a jumper and Chase Holtam stepped on the baseline to give the ball back to Witt with about 10 seconds to go. Wabash used their foul to give and then on the ensuing inbounds play Aaron Brock committed a foul on David Hieber, who made both free throws to give Witt the lead.

Wabash then got the ball after a timeout with 5 seconds to go and missed a contested jumper, I"m sure we'll hear some Wabash complaining about a foul not being called but there were plenty of other calls that went in their favor as well.

Overall a good game, once again Witt had a chance to put the game away and didn't do it but this time got lucky and advanced. Sometimes its better to be lucky than good indeed!!!!

[GoRed]

Congratulations to Witt. 

Wabash fans now can go back to Indiana and chant "Ohio sucks" until next November!!!!

From pennstghs tonight:

(last time) Witt had a chance to put the game away and didn't do it but this time got lucky and advanced. Sometimes its better to be lucky than good indeed!!!!

It also helps that everything and anything Witt threw up was missing and Wabash could not miss with countless lucky shots.

Just sayin!  Now a fan of luck?  Fact is, luck is always involved in sports.


Great win for Witt tonight.  Tough loss for Wabash, but it was a tremendous season for this Little Giant team.

[pennstghs]

bashbrother, I agree great game all around. If only my internet was working so I could actually watch the $10 quality video stream......damn Ohio weather!!!!

I'm ready for Witt/Wooster III tomorrow night, see you all there!

[bashbrother]

Good luck to Witt......  Win the thing so we can get two teams for sure from the NCAC in the show.

Dang.  I wish I could get the live stats working.  It must of crapped out at half time of the Witt-Bash game.

[bashbrother]

Wabash fans now can go back to Indiana and chant "Ohio sucks" until next November!!!!

Actually that chant is a twelve month commitment.  We don't take any days off.  

[David Collinge]

So, yeah, who else thinks Ohio Wesleyan is looking pretty solid right about now? 

I'm starting to think that I'm a jinx to the Battling Bishops. 

[countyroad]

Anyone have the score of the Woo/OWU game?
