I didn't realize I would need to brush up on my Morse Code to follow Posting Up this season...

Now, if Wabash goes 24-0, then the first round NCAC game will be for the school record.

24-game schedule this season?

I think that is the maximum allowed if a conference has a tourney (or am I misremembering?).

I heard that teams "got that one back" this season. So they can schedule 25 and then have the conference tourney.

Wooster plays a 25-game schedule virtually every year, the only exceptions being when they have an exhibition that counts against the total.  And we've always had a conference tournament.

The Dean is correct. You're misremembering, Chuck; that 24-if-a-tourney rule was rescinded about three or four years ago.

[David Collinge]

Well, I don't remember that rule, but Wooster has played a 25-game schedule in each of the last 7 seasons, including this one, and 9 of the past 11.

Final:  Wooster 76  Allegheny 73 Big win at the buzzer on an Ian Franks three pointer!

Wooster was led by Ian Franks with 19 points, Justin Hallowell with 18 points, Matt Fegan with 15 points (5 three pointers) and Nathan Balch with 12.

Allegheny shot well tonight at 48% from the floor.  For the Gators, the top scorers were James Ness with 20 points, Devone McLeod with 17 points and Ryan Stanko with 12.

Wooster is now 7-0, 3-0 NCAC   Next game is at Ohio Wesleyan on Saturday.

GO SCOTS!

Actually, that means I DID remember correctly.  Unfortunately, my memory card failed to get updated!

[David Collinge]

For the Gators, the top scorers were James Ness with 20 points...

Who here knew that James Ness was Phil Ness' son?  I sure didn't.

Who here remembers Phil Ness?

[ScotsFan]

Well, Wooster won this game despite Breck's best effort in jinxing Nathan Balch at the line in the broadcast!  

Nate was perfect for the SEASON at the line as Mike so duly noted before he attempted his one & one with Wooster up 3 and 13 ticks remaining.  Sure enough, Nate doinked the ft and Gheny then promptly took the rebound and got the ball to Devone McCloud who drained a game tying trey with under 5 seconds to play.  Wooster didn't hesitate and Franks drilled a 23 footer at the buzzer for the win!

Just before that, I had gone to the Wooster website because I thought I remembered that Balch hadn't missed yet on the season...and then I figured that Breckenridge would feel compelled to mention it.  :-)
