I will be there with a buddy, expecting a wild game and a great atmosphere.

It's a darn shame to see the John's get schooled on their home court for the 2nd year in a row against a UMAC squad. March always separates the pretenders from contenders.

the tears I'm shedding are from laughing about it. My gawd, that was one ugly performance. Have they talked VoJ down from the water tower yet?

Hey c'mon guys. It's not cool to pile on the Johns when they are down. Surely they would never do something like that in our direction.

Wait, what's that? Oh. Hmmm.

I hate to admit it, but ust3 did finish in first in the regular season in B-ball and will probably get in to the ncaa tournament. I just hope sju isn't one and done this year.
Yes, camera person couldn't figure out that when the ball was stolen by the other team it might be a good idea to follow the ball instead of showing the empty half court.

You're right, zip.  My bad.  The Tommies aren't consistently finishing third, instead they are consistently failing to close out a winning regular season with a good tournament finish.  Their problem is choking.  Apologies, Tommies, for the unfortunate slight on my part when I misdiagnosed the Tommies' ills.

[OzJohnnie]

I can't blame you.  You must grab those rare chances when they present themselves.

[SUMMIT!!!!!]

Rare chance? Tell you what....when S-J-Boo-Hoo wins an NCAA game, come back and we can talk then. 

[miac952]

Forget the SJ2 moniker. SJumac has a nice ring to it in ode to the conference that is their Everest.

[MUC57]

Damn, I love watching you guys go back and forth (you guys being SJU and UST). Mount Union has no one even close to them that we can argue with, except maybe UMHB, SJU, UST, UWW...........!
Oh, never mind. I'll just watch you guys!

Maybe the UMAC deserves a little more credit than it gets.

[DuffMan]

Wait, did I accidentally come to the Hoops board?!?!

Wait, did I accidentally come to the Hoops board?!?!

I'm not seeing the issue

Maybe the UMAC deserves a little more credit than it gets.

The Johnnie student section tried to use "you're in the UMAC!" as an insult yell last night, but I think we just took it as a compliment.

I'm a casual hoops observer and I couldn't agree more. That was one pathetic display by the J's.
Give credit to UNW, their shooting was outstanding.
The Johnnies have to figure out why they continue to choke on their home floor in the play-offs. Last year Augsburg schooled them in the MIAC play-off, then laid an egg against the UMAC champs.

Just walked in the door from the MIAC Championship hockey game Augsburg vs SJU. Very exciting and very long.  Auggies win in the 4th OT for the 4th tournament win in a row. Congrats to the Johnnies, they played well.

That would have been a tense game.  The Johnnie goalie faced 88 shots, saving 86.  Here's some exclusive post-game locker room footage:
