UNE's motto all year had been "Unfinished Business." It will conclude with a championship. UNE 89-CSC 81

Wow! Thanks for all the Curry love! Miller Gym has seen it's last game after a 52 year run. The new place is almost complete and will be a very nice addition to the campus as well as to the conference. I hope everyone enjoys it as much as we will because over the next 3 years all of the Championship Games will be played there!

Good news, although I did enjoy watching games there. Not too many people could fit in, but you were always close to the action. Good to hear that the new facility will be ready to go next year, coach.

I really don't know how that corps of refs got the championship game gig..good lord call a hand check

I'll try not to be negative..good game by both teams..Matt Lemieux goes down with 10 minutes left comes back to finish out the game..all heart

We'll be back next year I'll be a 5th year senior and hopefully finally see my boys win the big one..

Great season of basketball by all teams in the conference

(Just registered today!) As a huge Gordon fan, watching any of the game today was a bit painful. A great game on both ends by two teams who absolutely deserved to be there...

Matt Lemieux and I are from the same city, and he's been destroying my teams since I was 12 years old and was guarding him unsuccessfully myself.

The refs gave UNE a lot of breaks, and called a lot of fouls on CSC that they would never have called on UNE. I guess that's the reward you get for playing such aggressive defense...

Great tournament in the CCC. Let's hope these programs continue to get better...

Congrats to UNE on the winning the championship. It's a great time to be a fan of the Nor'easters as their team is still going to be very talented in the upcoming years. Best of luck to them in the NCAA Tournament. Hopefully they can represent the CCC well and don't get a first round matchup of Middlebury or a WPI.

Welcome to the board. As a Gordon fan, you're well aware of the fact that your team always disappoints in the second round of the playoffs. It's bascallly guranteed.

Congratulations to UNE. They were consistent and earned the title. I watched them play 3 games this year starting with the early season WIT/UNE non-conference game (90-91). I'm not an X's and O's critic but 2 observations.

1) Unlike most TCCC teams UNE never took a play off. They didn't rest during transitions and they took advantage of players who jogged or lost focus for even an instant. Call that a "Texas" style if you want, I call it good conditioning, court discipline, and smart ball (coach of the year).

2) Even though WIT only played UNE 2 times I saw 3 games. Thanks to the video link last night I was saved from some bad TV (OK, I did have some Div I ball muted on the tube, but it was background for this game). In my opinion a video link (or at least live stats) should be the rule not the exception. We spent some time this year discussing how backwards Biddeford is...well they were way ahead with this quality broadcast. The video links from Gordon and UNE are a benefit to more than just the fans. Players love to be seen (all sports and even theater), prospective students (and parents) are noticing tech savy schools, and the students broadcasting the event also benefit. Technology and communication programs at all TCCC schools should take advantage to offer some real world experience and resume' building. Those that don't will be seen as backwards.

Good luck to UNE in the Show!

UNE draws Farmingdale State with a possible second round matchup of RIC of MIT...

UNE has a shot at winning the first game... If they do, and draw MIT... They have a shot at that game too...

Remember, Gordon beat MIT in a close one...
