Congrats to Wooster.  Great defensive team and Franks was awesome.  Karma is a bitch as Wooster caught every break including atrociously one sided officiating I mean awful.  And two shots bouncing in and out.  Agonizing.   But I guess we are now even for 2003.  Gutty effort by Troy who was physically abused all game.  Great game for Nate also.  Great year for a young Ephs team but right now hard to take as I don't think they were worse than Wooster

Lost my voice on the broadcast tonight. I'd say it was worth it. For those who listened (I'm guessing all of you watched online), if you'd like a heavily Wooster oriented broadcast head over to http://www.ustream.tv/channel/wooster-sports at 3:15 PM EST tomorrow)

Unreal game. Go Scots!

Apologies from Williams fans for those of us, who in the passion of disappointment come across as sore losers.

Final:  St. Thomas 59  Middlebury 57

Tommies get the close victory so Wooster will face them in the championship game.

Hopefully, the Scots recall a loss to St. Thomas last season that they need to avenge tomorrow! ;)

GO SCOTS!

Congrats Scots.  Go the distance....
Frank, you certainly don't  need to apologize for those other people.

Brief Profile of St. Thomas 29-3

Likely Starters:
5'11" Tyler Nicolai SR  14.6 ppg, 1.9 rpg, 3.1 apg, 41% on three pointers (76 made)
6'4" Alex Healy SR  12.9 ppg, 2.8 rpg, 3.2 apg, 31% on three pointers (33 made)
6'8" Tommy Hannon JR  12.2 ppg, 6.7 rpg, 59% shooting, Most FT's made (105)
6'9" Anders Halvorsen SR  7.8 ppg, 4.0 rpg, Most Blocks (44)
6'1" Teddy Archer SR  5.5 ppg, 3.0 apg

Key Reserves:
6'4" John Nance SO  5.4 ppg, 2.0 rpg, 47% on three pointers (17 made)
6'1" Peter Leslie JR  4.1 ppg, 1.6 rpg, 47% on three pointers (17 made)
6'2" Brady Ervin SR  4.7 ppg, 3.8 rpg
6'6" Josh Pedretti SO  2.5 ppg, 2.3 rpg

St. Thomas wins games by shooting over 49% from the floor while strong defense holds opponents to only 43%.  Tyler Nicolai is their star player who hit a last second shot earlier in the tourney to knock off UW Stevens Point - the defending national champs.  St. Thomas will make three pointers but they only average 5.6 made per game, less than Williams or Whitworth.

Tommies have a big front line and 6'8" Tommy Hannon is their inside scorer who also shoots the most free throws.  They don't have much post depth off the bench so if Hannon or Halvorsen get into foul trouble, it could be an advantage for Wooster.

Tommies also press a lot so Wooster will need to take care of the ball and break the press!

GO SCOTS! :)

Irony:  Tonight Williams missed a layup with under 2 seconds left, Wooster grabbed the rebound and it was over--in 2003, Williams made a layup with 1 second left...at the same basket, from almost the exactly the same spot on the floor...to beat the Scots.

Timken South was rockin' tonight!  Expecting even more fans making the trek south tomorrow!

What an atmosphere tonight in the Civic Center for the opener!  And what a game!

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that the Scots actually pulled this game out!  Good thing I've had a few beers and a 300+ mile drive to help me get some sleep tonight and get ready for tomorrow's game! ;)

I was going to come on and comment how sweet it is to get some revenge on Williams after how it went down in 2003. I don't suppose there were any clock-keeping shenanigans that came into play this time?

They do usually televise the final game on some obscure channel, don't they? Does anyone know what station will have the game tomorrow?

This year, the game will be streamed live by the NCAA.  You can access the video from the Wooster tournament website.  I don't believe that CBS College Sports (or anyone else) will be televising (but as I don't have a TV and therefore don't give a hoot, I could be mistaken.)
