its just disapointing to me when i'm at every game and soemtimes theres a decent fan section whose pumped and ready to support there team and then the very next night they say one cheer before the game and you don't hear anything from them the rest of the night.

Or better yet, they leave midway through the first to go to the mall. If only Naz was every game.

Elmira's got a pulse... but all the students are at the Domes going crazy for the hockey team. I've also seen a GREAT student crowd at Hartwick for a lousy basketball team.

I expect mostly alums in the gym this weekend... and I'm fine with that.

Word on Wentworth is they've got no beef inside. The opportunity is there for Beigel, McSweeney, and Smalt.

Am I looking at this bracket right?

Fisher isn't in Amherst's region?

Wentworth is a team with pretty good athletes that likes to run up and down and shoot the ball. they start 5'11, 6'0, 6'0, 6'2, and 6'3. there bigger players although smaller are athetic and can hit the boards pretty hard. There best players are there guards tho, so they will need very big games from them. I think Fishers size and good defense are going to be real big factors in the game. From talks with Wentworth fans and other posters on the CCC boards, Wentworth has not seen a team like Fisher this year and is expected to have some problems.

Boy I hope a really good Plattsburg team doesn't spoil the party? They beat a GOOD b-port team and may be a real test for U of R. Budcrew ordinarily I agree with what you say, but Utica probably would have been the number 1 seed so there would have been little or no traveling. IDK why they passed on the ECAC but I have seen players from traveling teams hoping and praying they would get an invite. Everyone likes to have the possibilty of winning their last game. I agree that academics are important but I think sparing 4 hrs on a Wed with any subsequent games being a weekend could be managed. My .02

I think plattsburg has a good chance and i might attend the university so i'm rooting for cardinals all the way around.

Also i feel like regardless of what happened at roberts with u of r and fisher that the two teams will have a great game if they do play. Word hsa it that smalt has had onyurukas number since the 7th grade?

and on the ecacs... the teams praying for a bid are the teams who have given up all hope on the ncaas... once again players from good teams... fisher, u of r and utica think the ecacs are a J-O-K-E.

No doubt.

I think whoever survives the weekend in Pittsford has a good chance to do some serious road trippin'.

I know you played soccer at Campbell-Savona Middle School and High School, graduated in 2004, enrolled at MCC in the fall and should have just graduated from MCC last spring.

More questions?

jose I'm disapointed anyone else and you would have already had the picture of the person

I think it was wrong for Utica to big-time the ECAC's. It's one thing for Hamilton to do it; at least they have some tradition. Maybe Utica didn't want the embarrassment of playing in a tournament they weren't going to win. They did, after all, lose four of their last five games.

keystonelight · February 28, 2007, 10:38:20 PM

its really a bummer you know so much about my cousin... you skipped his season at ccc

keystonelight · February 28, 2007, 10:56:58 PM

Aren't the applications due a couple weeks before the end of the season? Maybe it simply didn't occur to Utica that they'd need to be in the ECACs...or they said at that point "screw it, if we're not in the NCAAs we'll have collapsed so badly we wouldn't want to play anyway."

BTW, Ithaca whipped RPI tonight 80-69 at the Bulb. Burton went off for 29 points and 9 assists; Bostic had 20 points and 13 rebounds. Sam Simmons leads RPI with 21 and 11.

Pretty sure that means they go to Vassar for the semis, you know I'm there if that's the case.
