CHOCTAWS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ralph Turner]

Chocs 75 JHU 51.  Way to go Chocs!

(This is not a South Region game, but it will not hurt the Chocs, if JHU wins the Centennial Conference.)

[Ralph Turner]

Timothy Broomfiled had 7 blocks and 3 steals for the Chocs!

Winford had 8 at the half. How did he finish?

How exactly is this tourney working? I know each team is offered two games, is the champion the best record.

UMHB's website reports the Cru beat defending champs Va Wes 63-62.

Nice night for the ASC!

[Pat Coleman]

Phew, thanks for the Johns Hopkins reality check, MC.

[McM Blue Devil]

After watching both teams play, the result of MC-JH does not surprise me.  I told the MC coaches when they were here that they would beat them double digits.

Great night last night for the ASC.

Wow, I did not see the UMHB upset coming at all.  That is a great win for them.  Countered with the MC shellacking of JHU, that should give the ASC some new found respect around D3.

UT-D 78, UTArlington 76.  More to come.

Any word on the McM - SHSU game?  I can't get it on streaming audio anywhere.

gccfan, I saw UTD tonight.  They played a very disciplined well-controlled game.  They move the ball well.  Martin Salinas was able to hit some early 3 pointers and put UTD up by 7 (19-12) at the 13:08 mark in the first.  UTA led 35-34 at the half.  Salinas gave Trinity all it could handle 2 years ago in the first round in Trinity's 66-60 win over UT-D.  IMHO, he is All-Region at the least.

Jordan Eppink is a very good freshman cneter (6'5" from Spring, TX  Houston suburb).  He missed some FT's at the end but did not hurt them. 

Scott Rodgers from The Woodlands,TX  is a 6'1" freshman who came off the bench for 19 points.  Rodgers was expecting looks from D1's, but got none and so was convinced to walk onto UT-D team when he arrived on campus this fall.  Rodgers got most of his points by taking the backdoor pass down low, I have his being 6-6 on 2FG's, almost all backdoor layups, plus 2 more assists on the backdoor play into the basket.  He is very good.

Travis Carruthers is a very heady 5'10" senior PG.  He runs the offense very well.

Mike McKee, a 6'2" junior from Houston, seems to pull the major defensive duties.

Ernie Lowrey, 6'1" sophomore from Spring, TX, seems to be the most athletic player on the team.

Brandon Green, a 6'1" Freshman from Houston, came off the bench for 9 points in 14 minutes.

UTD 78, UT-Arlington 76

No word.  SHSU is not streaming this game on KSAM, their local FM station.

Does anybody know how to get live statistics for the MC-Westmont game.
