MBB: North Coast Athletic Conference

[DenisonFan]

Sorry to see Wooster's season end.  They had a great year and will be back next year with a
great team.

GO WITT!!  Now we have only one!! 

Looks like Hope has the size to match up with the towers. 
Is Witt on spring break??  I hope they can fill the gym with some noise.

It most certainly has to be an advantage playing at home.

When you get this far there are no easy games!!

Best of luck!!

I'm picking up my GF at CMH Airport in Columbus friday afternoon and heading to Springfield.  Im a michigander and directions from CMH to Springfield would be helpful.  Thanks in advance!  I also have room for 1 or 2 more if anyone in Columbus is in need of a ride.  Only problem is I won't be heading back to Columus after the games.

Dren:
Take 670 out oif the airport to Columbus and that feeds right into 70 and you take 70 to Springfield.  It's about 60 miles.  Springfield exits are clearly marked.

I posted it elsewhere, but Tiger fans, you got a heck of a team.  Good luck the rest of the way.

Anybody out here listening to or watching the game tonight?

[Roughrider]

Just as tniem did, I also posted elsewhere, but will repeat it here on your home board.

Congratulations to the Wittenberg Tigers on your win over the Hope Flying Dutchmen.  Good luck tonight and beyond.

Congratulations to Wittenberg, and good luck in Salem! 

I wonder if Dane Borchers will change his mind (about coming back next season) if the Tigers win it all?  Maybe he's already committed, by virtue of re-arranging his schedule so he doesn't graduate this year, but it would probably feel pretty good to go out on top!  (Don't get me wrong; I hope Witt wins it all AND I hope that Borchers comes back for his super-senior campaign.)

Wittenberg 74
Transylvania 61

Tigers were led in scoring by Kenny Brady and Daniel Russ with 12 pts. each.  Russ grabbing 13 rebounds and a stupid intentional foul which could have cost the Tigers.

Billy Bowen came off the bench to add 11 pts with the Great Dane adding 10 pts. To me, the most valuable player of the team.

DJ Corbett had a great game  while adding 8 pts, making a great driving lefthanded layup in crunch time.

Pat Denbow played his normal floor game while adding 7 pts.

The Pioneers were led by Brian Howard with 18pts.
Marc Bain added 15 but was held to 1/8 from the 3 line.
Joey Searle had 11 pts with Matt Finke with 7.
Tyler  Smithhard with 5.

---------------------------------------

If Wittenberg wants  to advance  further they must make their foul shots which they have not recently.

The Tigers shot 47 and only made 29. That's right, they missed 18 freebies.

Also, need Tyler Howard back. He was hurt in the NCAC championship game with a concussion and has not been with the team the past 3 games. Get well soon Tyler.
