ITHACA WINS! Bombers hang on for their first victory of the season, defeating St.Lawrence, 70-61. Jim Bellis leads the Bombers with 14 points. Eat it, RTH.

Obviously D-III Hoops user interface must be difficult.  They have the score reversed.  St. Lawrence 70, Ithaca 61.

I assume your contact was at the game and has reported the score accurately.

thebear, I listened to the game on Ithaca's student radio station and, yes, d3hoops.com has it backwards. Ithaca won, 70-61. Listening to d3 bball on a Friday night...this is the life! I'm lazy and didn't feel like wiping my car off at all today so I'm not going out. Here in Allentown(PA), we got dumped on pretty bad last night so it's been a pretty quiet day/night.

From the looks of the RIT website, Wilkes apparently did not make the trip up to Rochester. RIT/York tonight(score not reported), Oswego/York tomorrow at 2pm, RIT/Oswego at 3pm on Sunday. Wilkes-Barre must have got it pretty bad, too.

As Ricco reported, Fisher knocks off Geneseo, 75-61. I believe I estimated the Cards would win by 11-14. I'm 2-for-2 on those babies, bring on the gambling this weekend!

Good night for the E8 as Alfred knocks off visiting and previously undefeated Potsdam, 72-65. Coupled with the Fisher victory over Geneseo, the E8 goes 2-0 vs SUNYAC tonight to make up for it's 1-2 showing earlier in the week. I, however, refuse to engage in the SUNYAC vs E8 argument because it's pointless and different teams matchup better against certain teams. Should be interesting the way things turn out with only a few more E8/SUNYAC games on this year's schedule.

Good win Fisher...Really nervous at halftime(down by 1). 

Seems like a good night for the E8 overall, Alfred, Ithaca, and Fisher all with quality wins...

GB15 -  Yeah, I wasn't happy when I got to the gym in time for the Oswego game.  I believe NYC got hammered just as bad as Northern PA, but York made the drive despite playing a game on Thursday night.  Playing Oswego today means three games in three days for them. 

jdex

Bamm, don't believe York's playing Sunday unless Wilkes appears then. Oswego this afternoon meets York, then faces RIT in Sunday matinee

gobombers15

JDex, I think he means they're playing three games in three days because they had a game near NYC on Thursday night, played RIT last night and has the afternoon game against Oswego today.

Yeah, gb15, if we had properly scanned bamm's post we would have realized. Thanx

RIT over York 66-61 on Friday. York playing Oswego this afternoon in York's 11th game of the season. It beat NY City Tech on Thursday and Medgar Evers on Tuesday. Talk about busy!

With just under four minutes remaining, Ithaca leads visiting Potsdam by a score of 83-47. Yes, you read that correctly. I'm pretty sure Jim Mullins missed today's game, as well as last night's win against SLU, due to a family funeral. Not to make light of a serious situation, but go figure...2-0 without Mullins.

Hey RTH, we just rolled a team that is better than all four of your wins combined. Still think Hartwick will do better than Ithaca in conference play?

Final score from South Hill:

Ithaca   90
Potsdam 58

Wow. That's all I can say.

Caz Bombers

Actually it was 90-52.  Even better....too bad we don't play again til January.

gobombers15

Sorry, Caz, the ICB announcers were saying it as I posted it. Obviously, this is a huge win for the Bombers against the defending SUNYAC champs. Like you said, though, not another game until January, hopefully this momentum has a long life.

The Bombers come back on January 6th to start conference play. That weekend the Bombers will host RIT on Friday night and Naz comes to the South Hill on Saturday afternoon. Absolutely huge weekend for the Bombers as they could theoretically be 2-0 or 0-2 and nobody would really be that surprised.

I can't wait for RTH's inevitable "win column" comparison. He's been inconspicuous by his absence since Ithaca has started winning.
