A strange game. CNU wins against the most athletic team I've seen this year. How in the world is FSU 10-13? And I question the heights listed for FSU. If #50 is 6'11" then our #31 is 6'10", which he's not. I give #50 6'8.5" at the most.

And speaking of 6'11", our 5'10" guy outrebounded him.

Frostburg is a tough one to figure out. They have Mary Washington's number this year for sure, but have some puzzling games with 2 losses to St. Mary's and a 19 point loss to Harrisburg. Yet they took Longwood (granted not a powerhouse, but still D1) to OT on the road.

I'm hoping UMW can lock up a top 4 seed (top 2 is out of the question IMO) and a home game with a win on Wednesday, but Southern Virginia is a bit of a worry, especially on the road. I know they're 0-12 but UMW came back and barely beat them on a last second layup at home. They also have some tight results against good teams (Salisbury, CNU, Roanoke). Should be a fun tournament this year. While seeding isn't final, the top 6 are in place.

I think its important that UMW lock up a 3 seed. Playing Frostburg would obviously be a concern. I agree that the Wednesday game is scary. SVU has played much better than their record indicates. This conference is weird - in several cases, the records do not reflect the talent. Anyway - congrats to Coach Kahn on Win 300. Let's get a few more this season!

I totally agree regarding Southern Virginia...they're actually not bad and play hard from start to finish...their record is quite deceiving.

HUGE game tonight at Salisbury...hoping CNU wins and York loses at Frostburg!

GO CAPS!

Looks like MW should be firmly in 3rd now. York losing both games is unlikely. Frostburg has a tough ending with York and Salisbury, although both at home. Frostburg's finish will dictate who Mary Washington plays in the first round. Although if Frostburg wins out, they would sneak into 4th and push Salisbury into a 1st round road game.

Tonight's game has a lot of implications. The whole conference should be watching. I know I will.

I will try. Last night my goal was to have dinner with my son, then get home and settled with my ipad to watch the CNU/Salisbury game. At 3:30am I woke up and realized I totally forgot about the game......#gettingoldsucks

Damn, '85, you totally forgot? Dude, it was Salisbury Steak for crying out loud!

Speaking of Salisbury, that was a convincing win for CNU, which I wasn't expecting...now, the Captains aren't going to shoot the ball like that very often, but they picked a great time to do it...hoping they don't take PS-H for granted!

GO CAPS!

Can you guys believe the camera work at the Frostburg/York game? It shows the entire court but doesn't show either basket. Crazy and infuriating.

And the graphics didn't show a clock...so you had no clue how much time was left in either half. And live stats froze for a while at 9-3.

Well that was a total lack of class. Penn State Harrisburg player scores and about 20 fans/family rush the court. The game had just started.

Congrats to York....regular season co-champs wth CNU. CNU wins coin toss and gets the #1 seed.

Yes, congrats to both CNU and York on their shared championship...glad the Captains won the coin toss, but that's a terrible way to determine the #1 seed w/so much riding on it.
