Are the announcers sitting outside, or near a fan? Why does it sound windy?

Budget cuts have forced Depauw into a open air gym.

Can someone toss a link my way for video? I see no "watch now" button on the teamline page...

I got there by clicking the "men's basketball" link under the weather forecast (which is important for indoor basketball games) on the teamline site...which kicked me to an obvious "watch now" link.

You're not too far off.  That fieldhouse is cavernous.

I hope the Wabash crowd is substantial down in Greencastle tonight.  There were a couple of times when I was a student back in the late 90s when our students absolutely owned Neal Fieldhouse (the massive Wabash crowd actually moved a writer for The DePauw to write a story about it one time...that was awesome).  It can be done, gentlemen.   Make it happen. 

Holy cow.  I hadn't realized this, but the last time Wabash won at DePauw was in 1998...which was the year of the game that I was talking about earlier.  That's a looong time.

Wabash comes out cold!   Come on Little Giants!

Not just cold, but lots of turnovers too. Need to stop the bleeding.

Yikes. That makes me feel old.

At the Half:  Wooster 38  Hiram 34

Wooster is being led by Ian Franks with 10 points, Bryan Wickliffe with 6 points, Josh Claytor with 6 points (6 boards) and frosh Ryan Snyder also with 6 points.

Hiram's top scorers are Babajide Eniola with 9 points, Andrew Wiegand with 6 points and Glenn Campbell also with 6 points.

Scots shot 50% from the floor vs only 36% for the Terriers.  Wooster only made 1 three pointer while Hiram nailed 3 from beyond the arc.  Scots also had 8 turnovers vs. 6 for the Terriers.

Nathan Balch with a bruised quad and frosh Ryan Snyder starts the 2nd half instead of Balch.

I love the "Forty Seven" chant.

[David Collinge]

Looks like OWU has dropped Capital by a 67-57 score.  That's the second Wittenberg-defeating opponent that the Bishops have bested.  

Kenyon and Denison are locked in a barnburner in Granville.  Kenyon leads at the moment by a 63-59 score with 4:13 remaining.

Allegheny is punishing Oberlin early in the second period, 47-28.

Nothing better than singing "Old Wabash" on their court. Great win for the LGs. Great showing by the Wabash students. "And loud and long shall echo the song..."

[bashbrother]

Great to see the Wabash fans on the court in Greendingle after a 12 year drought......

Long season.... but this could be a special Wabash team.  Defense is the key!

Wabash 57
Depauw 40

Final!

Wes Smith 21 to lead the Little Giants!

[wabco]

That makes it twice in a month that the Dannies show up "undefeated" only to be kicked to death by the Little Giants

[David Collinge]

Kenyon and Denison have gone to OT...

It's insane to think that you and I were among the last group of Wabash students who got to sing "Old Wabash" on that floor.  Great win for Wabash, great job by the students tonight for making themselves at home...excellent effort all the way around today.  And the "Forty-seven" chant was outstanding.  I was hoping they wouldn't miss that opportunity.  

Wes Smith dropped in 21 tonight, Derek Bailey added 11 for Wabash.  Stifling Wabash D tonight held DPU to under 30% shooting.  Good stuff.  Really good stuff.  Wabash has a football beatdown and the Bell.  Wabash has run DPU out of their own gymnasium.  Pretty solid couple of weeks for the LGs.  It's been a long time since Wabash has had this kind of ownage on the Tigers...it's a good feeling.  

Alright, now on to conference play.  Wabash is at Hiram this weekend.
