Thanks for the link, Pat. If I'm remembering right, won't that leave 12 teams once McMurry moves up to D2 in a 5/7 split? Either an East team (ETBU or UTD?) would have to switch or they'd have to go to a full double-round-robin, right?

I will bet that UTD gets moved west.

On the bright side, a 16-game league schedule leaves more games for non-conference matchups to boost regional rankings (assuming I'm understanding the concept correctly).

Maybe CTX will finally start playing Southwestern regularly. I cannot understand why they don't play every year in everything, given that travel costs are essentially nonexistent.

I would prefer the double round robin.  True champion that way.

If UTD moves to the West, it just got even tougher than it already is!

CUAfan

So would I, personally, but that would be 22 conference games, leaving even less opportunity for non-conference play as it is.

I think Schreiner has the potential to upset UTD in the first round.  Could be only the teams from the West still playing after the first day.

Ralph Turner

HSU 64, UTD 63.

Another win by HSU over a regionally ranked team, but I think that their only chance is to win the ASC.

Ralph Turner

McMurry 77 UMHB 69.

McMurry's final ASC men's (conference) basketball game will be against HSU.

HSU has got to be happy about this: I'm sure they didn't want to play UMHB on their home court after losing twice to them in the regular season.  Now, they get to play for the conference championship against McM, a team they've beaten twice, on a neutral court.  But will three be the charm for McM????
Alacumba!

It is very hard to defeat a team 3 times in a season.

I watched the streaming video of the games at LC and the announcers did interviews after the games with the players and coaches.  But after the McM-UMHB game, the announcers just said good-bye and there was nothing left but silent video of the stands, which they apparently forgot to turn off.  Did they have interviews after the previous games at UMHB, or did they end the broadcast that abruptly for all the games?

I'm none too familiar with the whole selection process in D3, but it seems to me that the ASC is only likely to get the HSU/MCM winner plus Mary Hardin-Baylor into the tournament, but not all three.
