Mr. Ypsi

For the semis, I'd imagine that Hope and WashU will have big crowd advantages over Rochester and Amherst, respectively.  If Hope and WashU face off on Saturday, I'll be curious to see which crowd can make Shirk feel 'like home'.

That's a challenge for you guys! ;)

Hope will have 3 sections of the 6 sections in the arena, not counting end zone seating. The tickets will be colored to designate which school sections you will be seating in.

Anne Bakker (Hope ticket office) will try to get more than the 500 tickets that are allocated to Hope. But, you can purchase directly from Ill Wesleyan and those tickets do not come out of Hope's allocation. Hope will have 2 fan buses going to the game. Cost = $110/ticket/2 to a room or $100/ticket/3-4 to a room, this includes Fri & Sat tickets.

Game tickets for Fri & Sat games (2 games/actually 4) are $20/adults $15/seniors-55 year old or older.

Hard to compete with that turnout when you're flying from Rochester and Amherst and kids are on spring break scattered all over the globe.  The northeast cheering sections will have to be small, but mighty.  Home court is huge, but not always the clincher....just ask IWU.

Does anyone know if my $20 pass for the weekend get me in to BOTH games on Friday? Or will they clear the gym? I assume it is good for both, but I was a little thrown off about Hope getting 3 of the 6 sections.

That will get you in for both games on Friday.

Thanks for all the stats.

Certainly doesn't look on paper like a blow out either way....if anything, Amherst has a slight statistical advantage.

Agreed - although doing these kinds of comparisons are fairly meaningless, since the level of competition is so varied - but then, what else do we have?

Anyone know why the 3rd place game is at 11AM local time? It seems rather ridiculous to me that whoever ends up playing in that game has to do so before noon. P

Couldn't they do at least 12 and 3 or 1 and 4? I'll play the role of thin-skinned D3 fan and say isn't it a bit disrespectful to put the game that early.

My understanding is that, if they want the title game on national TV, TV calls the shots on time.  And having the 3rd place game AFTER the title game is a non-starter.

Is the game on the CBSCollegeSports station? CSTV maybe?

If so, that makes sense. Gripe, officially retracted.

yes the championship  game is on tv
i love hope  sports all of them are really great to watch

In the interest of making sure the title game starts on-time for tv.......I'm sure they make sure there is plenty of extra time between games.......it also allows the two teams vying for the National Championship to have a set warm-up schedule and not have to worry about waiting in the tunnel while the consolation game goes overtime or something screwy like that.


I imagine if you're at the final four as a player I really don't think you care when you play really.
