There are 5 courts at Shirk Center, court 1 is clear from 9:30am-2pm, I would imagine the teams willl practice on this court.

We'll be working with the NCAA on its video broadcast of Friday and Saturday's games at Illinois Wesleyan.  You can find those broadcasts here:

If you see a pale, skinny, balding guy, feel free to come up and say hello. If it's me, I'll say hello back.

Packing up and heading out.  Bloomington here we come - the sea of orange & blue.

Go HOPE!!!

[HopeConvert]

Alright - a good start.

[fannie]

24-24 at the half.  Hope too streaky........had a 10 point lead, let Marymount back into it at the half.

[ChicagoHopeNut]

Looks like a decent Hope crowd at the game.

[NW Hope Fan]

Go Hope!

[ChicagoHopeNut]

Hope wins 53-46!

Marymount went 12 minutes in the second half without scoring from the field and still had a chance to win in the last minute. Amazing.

Go Hope!

I saw the entire second half and for a while I thought it was a game both teams deserved to lose. During the Hope timeout with 35 seconds left, Morehouse made a very wise decision on the inbounds play. Rather than have Snikkers inbound the ball like she usually does, he had Greene inbound it and she was easily able to get it to Carrie who makes such a large and inviting target that Marymount really had little chance of stealing the ball.

I agree with oldknight - wow...nothing like "trying to give one away"!!!!  BUT - prevail they did!!  GO HOPE!  Elite Eight here we come!  Any idea if those of us still in Holland tonight will be able to buy game tickets at DeVos for tomorrow nights game?

If IWU loses, no problem.  If IWU wins, good luck!

Snikkers 21pts, 14 rbs.........I'm pretty sure she had 16 pts and 9 rebs in the 2nd half, or something close to that.

Survive and advance!


4th elite 8 in 5 tournaments for Hope

6th consecutive year of an elite 8 team from the MIAA, 7th time in the last 8 tournaments.  That's pretty impressive.

Tickets are likely being sold on site by Hope.  If you have a way to contact somebody at the game, it might not be a bad idea.

I didn't realize IWU and Stevens Point had already met once this year.......an 84-80 IWU victory on November 28 at IWU.

[ChicagoHopeNut]

IWU loses 77-76 after UWSP scores with 2.2 seconds left!

Lots of tickets for tomorrow.

Maybe no one will ever play in the Final Four at home. (I realize it's happened in the past. Just a comment in light of what's happened to Hope and now IWU).
