It was CSC vs. Todd Doyle tonight and CSC came out on top..bring on the Scots should be a great game to watch

Matt Abbott looked like he couldn't make 2nd team All-Intramurals..but then again I wouldn't be able to shoot with me in his head all game either

scout

Is there any way to persuade the CSC AD/SID to find a way to broadcast their playoff games? Or at least do live stats?

We've gotten Salve, RWU, Gordon, UNE, WIT, etc...

I think the same could be said of Szilega's non-performance.  But my guess is they were both canceling each other out as directed by their respective game plans.

Sounds like you did a good job from your position in the bleachers of NH!

So...not sure what this means, but are you implying that you, personally, function at a higher level when you are not in your own head?   Damn....

Not a bad job by WNEC in the first half against UNE.  They played good defense, clogged the middle, and kept it close.  UNE played a little sloppy in the first half, shots were not falling, and Simpson got into some early foul trouble (hurt by some bad calls on some intense defense). Second half as usual UNE just kept running and WNEC could not keep pace.  Love the 10 seconds or less offense with the press defense.  Crowd gets into it and the points pile-up.  Great performances from Knoteck (I hope I got his name right) and others off the bench.  Hats off to the coaching staff of WNEC, their guys played hard throughout.   The Salve game should be pretty close Thursday, its gotta suck to travel up to UNE on a Thursday afternoon, student section will be crazy, hope the seagulls can respond.

That's the biggest problem with the officiating in our league, as I'm sure is the case with other surrounding leagues.  The refs are way too quick to call anything that may look like a foul, when rather it is exactly what you said, intense defense.  If the refs intend to move up and officiate on higher levels, then they need to watch a Division 1 and observe how much more freedom those players have.  Don't get me wrong, I'm not comparing TCCC to any Division program. 

Then again, complaining about the refs gets you nowhere

I did not discover the video until halftime of the UNE-WNEC game, but we have that problem with referees in the ASC where that "UNE" style of play is more common.  Sometimes the referees in the ASC have trouble keeping up with the pace of ASC ball.  The game is just played faster than they can comprehend the action.  It takes real effort to "ref" an ASC game.  There is a real skill to keeping up with the pace, not only in positioning and anticipation of the scenarios that play out, but in comprehending what the players can do!  We seem to have similar problems to what the CCC does that way.

The ASC tourneys should be video-streamed.  The men's teams that will play that aggressive style are LeTU, McMurry, Mississippi College, UTTyler.

Concordia-Texas (10-15/9-12)  beat WPI 86-85 in Austin over the Christmas break.  They play up tempo, more offense and 3FG's than the others.  UMHB and UTD play more traditional half-court styles, but still have speed.

As for the women, you will see aggressive defense by McMurry, Howard Payne, Mississippi College, UT-Tyler and Hardin-Simmons, especially.  McMurry women (20-5/17-4) beat Bates women in Florida 66-42.  Hardin-Simmons women (20-5/16-5) beat Babson 84-75 in OT in Nassau over the holidays.  UMHB (13-12/12-9) women play less pressure, but nevertheless, beat Southern Maine women at Trinity TX 82-73.  ASC women's basketball is beautiful!

If you would like to see what the UNE players were competing against in Texas high schools, I encourage you to follow the ASC tourney video-streams.  McMurry hosts the women.  UT-Dallas hosts the men.

From my experience the problem with the refs in the UNE area is that they also work the high school games in the area. Now most are good refs and they don't have an easy job, but there are a chosen few who ruin it for everyone else.  They can't change the way they ref a high school game and the way they ref a college game, which creates a problem. In the end there are not many people who want to ref a game, not a lot of new blood, and so those of us in Maine will just have to deal with it. Our sincere apology to those of you from MA that come and play here.

You also have the depth of competition for refs, too.  Now supposedly there is some system that doles out refs to NCAA schools so the smaller conferences don't get stuck with the worst refs, but there has to be some tier system. With so many schools in the area, it's difficult to get enough people.

According to the SID of CSC... "Sorry to inform you that we do not have live game stats this year but we are looking to get them for all sports in the near future most likely starting in the fall."

Looks like we'll get a halftime score... And then a final...
