UNE miraculously picks up another win, another road win at that (they haven't won at home this year), beating WNEC 70-69 in OT.  Some stellar three point shooting led the way.  Shaw had 19 and Minto went for 17 and 17 for WNEC.

Down goes Salve.  RWU wins the rivalry game 75-72 on the sharp shooting for Engemann (6-12 from deep) with 27 points.  They also succeeded in holding Birrell to 17, 6, and 8.  The one-man-wrecking-crew went for 16 and 12 with 6 blocks.

Gordon drops one at home to Nichols 69-71, turning a 9 point halftime lead into a loss.  As expected, GC just couldn't score with the freewheeling NC squad.  Dempsey had 16 points, but only one rebound as boards were scarce.  Both teams shot over 45% from the field.  Still no Kuntz for Nichols, but they're starting to come together with four players in double figures; Sheehan had 15.

Curry runs the score up on Wentworth, turning a ten point lead with five to go into a 92-68 walloping.  WIT shot 40% from three, but were outrebounded.  Derek Mayo had 16 points.  Papalambros had 23 and Jones 19 for Curry.

Now we have some clear separation.  Seven teams with 4 wins or better and the three at the bottom (ENC, WNEC, and UNE) all fighting for the last playoff spot, tied at 2 wins a piece.

As far as I know we're still planning on an 8 team playoff.  I haven't heard different from the conference on that.

The Nichols win came on a 3-pointer with three seconds left.  NC was down 69-68 with nine seconds left.  They pulled a chubby 6'6" kid off the end of the bench, ran a set play for him, and he buried the shot.

Had to be a great moment for Nichols.  Give credit to Nichols' coach Dave Sokolnicki for a stunning end game strategy.

UNE crushes Curry 73-56 in the make-up of a previously postponed game.  Charles Fenner III with 19 for UNE.  Jones went for 20 and 7.

If a team your playing pulls a chubby 6'6" kid off the bench for the last seconds of the game you have to conclude he can do one thing well...shoot the ball. Why was he wide open??? that might have been a poor coaching decision.

This photo sequence makes what happened very clear.  Miersma stays in the lane, leaving his man on the perimeter.

Is that a rookie mistake or a bad call on the coaching staff to keep him in the lane?

Here are my weekend picks sure to be wrong. Nichols has been playing well of late but has been un able to finish down the stretch in some games they were leading, so I'm taking them at home. RWU against EC will be a good game and it could probably go either way. Curry can really score and Gordon has been struggling of late so I'm taking Curry

Western New England at Nichols
University of New England at Salve Regina
Eastern Nazarene at Wentworth
Endicott at Roger Williams
Curry at Gordon

Sorry.  I was incomunicado this week, but fortunately missed only one night of games instead of two.

Wednesday's results:

WIT 59, UNE 49.  Both teams played pretty terribly, but UNE is just not as good, although this Charles Fenner III kid seems to be coming on well.

WNEC 54, Gordon 50.  Shaw was effectively nullified, but Daniel Minto is coming on strong with 20 to leas WNEC.  Gordon struggled shooting and committed a lot of fouls.

Salve 71, EC 64.  Birrell had 15, 10, and 6.  Callo had 19 and 15.  Salve's exquisite FT shooting won the day.

Nichols over Curry 80-78.  Sheehan went for 37!  Kuntz still not playing.  Jones went for 22 and 10.

ENC drops another close home game, to RWU 57-63.  Flanagan went for 17, Ezigbo went for 18.  Very even game.

Fun afternoon of CCC action:

Nichols over WNEC 77-69.  Sheehan had 19, four NC guys made double figures.  Shaw only had 13.

WIT crushes ENC 75-55.  Terriault had 28 on 11-14 shooting.  Ezeigbo had 19 and 7.

Salve over UNE 61-51. Four in double figures for SRU, although it doesn't appear they played all that hard.  Won the rebound battle and controlled the ball.

Curry wins at Gordon 61-53.

RWU over Endicott 76-69.  Flanagan had 23.  EC's bigs did keep him in check, even as they got into foul trouble.  Endicott lost, despite putting five guys in double figures; Callo and Makris both had double-doubles.  RWU really did well from the arc to seal the deal.
