Congrats to Albirght on getting a chance to host, and to Lycoming for making the bracket.  Hope that you both go far in the tourney.  It's a great time of year.

Messiah apparently came close to getting in as well.

Another season of Commonwealth hoops is under way.  Etown takes the season opener on the road at Penn State Harrisburg.  I'm hoping Coach Schlosser and the gang can make some noise this year.  What does everyone think of the preseason coaches picks?

I'm at the Widener game right now.  They're not particularly talented, but they're young, deep, physical, and well drilled.  They could make some noise perhaps.  Backup PG, Radomicki is short, but he really sees the floor well and plays with confidence; definitely a freshman to watch.

Albright struggled in their loss to Elmira(4-21 last year), as the shorter Elmira players out-scrapped Albright.  I was disappointed; I was hoping to see an F&M/Albright final tonight.

Interesting early reports on Widener and Albright.  Etown is sitting at 3-1 now after winning their home opener last night, but they have been trailing by at least 9 in all of their past 3 games, so they haven't been pretty wins.

Etown opens up conference play at Leb Val on Wednesday night.  Both teams come in at 4-1 and they have both beat Del Val and Penn State Harrisburg, although Leb Val has had a slightly larger margin of victory in both games.  Anyone have any info on how Leb Val has looked so far this year?

Here's to hoping this gets read.  Judging by recent posting history I may only be wishing bjayfan a happy day.

If two inches of snow closes your street and you can't make it out to the PEC, Etown @ Alvernia is available LIVE in the intraweb.

You'd get more bang for your buck posting those links to our scoreboard, which gets several thousand page views a day.

Just saw the Wiedner buzzer beater against Leb Valley on ESPNEWS! Looked like about 65 feet!  Awesome.

The first and still most accurate description of the D3 Championship BeltTM thread.

This is the second year in a row that Widener took down the Dutchmen on a long buzzer-beater.   :'(

Nearly two weeks later and it ends up on ESPNews? Crazy. I didn't even put it on our front page because of how old it is. But for anyone who wants to see it again, it's in our Buzzer Beaters section.

I saw the buzzer beater on ESPN top 10 as well.  #3 on the list.

In other news, Etown used a huge second half to put a hurting to Alvernia this past Saturday and are now only a game behind Alvernia for first in the conference.  The Blue Jay's have been playing some pretty good basketball recently.

Looks like the way to get feedback in this room is have a buzzer beater.

The Commonwealth Men's Basketball Matrix is up to date through Saturday's games.  I will make every effort to update it on game nights.
