The Lady Royals will probably get an at-large bid to the NCAA's.  How about Centenary?

Only way Centenary gets in is if they win the conference and the automatic bid.

Kate,
  Scranton is no longer a member of the ECAC; the others you asked about are and could be invited to their South region tournament.

Thanks for the info - Ronk, is not being an ECAC member a stipulation of the Landmark?  I do remember when you were in the MAC, Coach Strong had never applied for an ECAC post-season game.  I think that's the way it was, you can correct me if i'm wrong.  As for me, i can't get enough of watching the Aggies play, although, believe it or not, they're calling for snow again on Wed.

I think Coach Strong and the Scranton women have been busy during the ECAC's for the last few decades.

  Goucher, Susquehanna, and Scranton are the only Landmark schools that aren't also members of the ECAC. Scranton's men's team did play a few years ago in the ECAC under current Coach Danzig but it probably preceded joining the Landmark.
Check out ecac.org/championships and women's bball alignment there for the list of schools by conference.

At the half, Manhattanville 38/ Desale's 30

After being behind by eight at the half, DeSale's rallied to win 63/59.  Went to the grocery at the half & just came in to see that score.  Congratulations to the Lady Bulldogs, good come from behind victory to win the MAC Freedom.

Permit me a GO NEUMANN!

Permit me a GO NEUMANN!

You might get that tomorrow. GMC lost by 7 at home and 14 on the road to NU.  But GMC crushed Centenary today.  If things go as they go.  Neumann should be the CSAC rep.

Major congratulations to DeSales Champions of the Freedom, and Messiah Champions of the Commonwealth!  It wasn't particularly an easy ride for either team, so that should make them that much more battle tested going into the NCAA's.  Best luck to both of them as they represent the MAC in the big dance!

[kate]

Darn it, Ithaca's a beautiful school, but a bit far - we'll be with you in spirit Lady Bulldogs.  Anxiously awaiting word on ECAC bids for our Aggies.

Del Val hosts Juniata in an ECAC game at 7 pm Wednesday night.  Hope to see everyone there, AND, GO AGGIES!!!

[kate]

So sorry for the triple here, but HUGH Congratulations to Kim Vennera, Player of the Year for the MAC Freedom!!!  The same to Emily Soper, Rookie of the Year, & Brit Battinieri, MAC Second Team!  Always, No. 1 in our hearts!  Congrats, again!

Was a little carried away this afternoon, but for those who didn't click in to the MAC site, congratulations to all the following award winners - we've seen them all, & they are very much deserved:  First team: Simona Gordon, Manhattanville; Lori Lidlow, DeSales; Christine Marks, Misericordia; Danielle Michlovsky, FDU-Florham; and Kim Vennera, Del Val.   Second team honors go to Brittany Battinieri, Del Val; Paige Carlin, King's; Carey Hickey & Courtney Turner, Manhattanville, & Kelly Magrann, DeSales.  POY, Kim Vennera;  ROY, Emily Soper, Del Val, & COY, Lauren Thomer, Manhattanville.

Very GOOD Luck this Friday to our three MAC Women's teams, DeSales playing Ithaca at Ithaca College; Messiah hosting Neumann; and Lebanon Valley College playing Medaille at Marymount.  GO MAC!!!
