Marlins host Johns Hopkins and then play either Alvernia or Wesley at the Batten Center.

RMC and VWC would meet in the Sweet Sixteen .... way too early in the tournament!

Congratulations to the Marlins. You can play for a quite a bit longer, if you play at your peak!

The Tigers' record in 2013-2014 may have been only 1-5 against their chief rivals, the Yellow Jackets and Marlins, and they also lost to Williams and Wesley, plus a few teams that will not be in the NCAAs, but the Tigers were most of the time, very clearly, one of the best 3 teams in the ODAC.  They played with the Marlins all the way to the buzzer in each of their 3 matchups, and looked more like a 20-9 team than a 16-13 team this year. 

The intensity the Tigers brought to the ODAC tournament created a great sense of pride for their fans this past weekend, and it reflected the tremendous character of their four seniors, Khobi Williamson, Fletcher Lumpkin, Sasha Obradovich, and Keegan Wetzel.  Outstanding young men ... each of them.

Yes, ^ they earned a lot of respect in Salem.  Sounds like it was a very close & exciting game.  We missed it due to returning from the R-MC's women's big win in the title game that ended just before 3:00 pm. 

Congrats to VWC on the ODAC Championship & on once again being a host site for the first round.  All of us are excited about the chance to host for the first time in years!  To us, none of the pods look easy for the home teams, except maybe Amherst's. 

GO MARLINS!!!  GO JACKETS!!!

VWC, if they win, matching with likely Wesley in the second round and Macon, if they win, with either Springfield or Mary Wash is two really tough matchups for the ODAC teams that round! Those three teams, especially Wesley, were as good as any team in the ODAC we played all year. I suspect Mary Wash is the most likely opponent for Macon in the second round though. I just can't see Alvernia being able to take out Wesley.

[donho]

 Man I wish I could get there! I was there back in 03 and it was a blast. Sellout ,standing room only basketballfest!  Go Jackets!!!

[tigerfanalso]

And I believe the right team won the regional hosted by RMC in 2003.

That was a great weekend for any basketball fan, regardless of what team you pull for. All four games were exciting.

[donho]

 You didnt have to remind me of the outcome tigerfanalso  ! The Host was not treated nicely ! 

[tigerfanalso]

yes, but RMC can right the ship this year. Good luck to your Jackets.

Go Jackets! (Go Marlins goes without saying of course.) I hope that VWC and RMC will get to matchup in Crenshaw for a tourney game. RMC was always one of my favorite road trips to make because I knew the Jackets crowd would come out in full force, and I can only imagine what kind of atmosphere it will be in the NCAA tourney. I look forward to making that trip down I-95 in terrible Friday rush hour traffic next week to see my Marlins and the Jackets go to battle! So RMC and VWC, get the job done please so I can experience this lol

As a former ODAC player and Assistant Coach i want to Wish RMC and My VWC Marlins luck this weekend. Tournament time was always the best time of the year as a coach and a player. I look forward to watching my Marlins this weekend in action courtside. March Madness is here. GO MARLINS!!!
