Carroll's season is over.

Carroll is a girl's name

LU's still alive, and help's their minimal, but still alive Pool C hopes.

Go Vikes!!

Final Score:

Lawrence 90
Carroll 66

Here we go, just a few minutes left. GC-SNC at Darby for the right to face Lawrence....What's with the empty seats though, visiting section?

No you haven't been waiting a long time. This is the 2nd in a row isn't it and the 4th in 9 years. It doesn't sound as loud as it did when I was a student...

Horrible officiating early on,

Little Arsenault out...6 all early on...

Actually, it just appears that the refs are kinda sorta calling the majority of the many fouls that GC commits as part of their "system." Let's hope it continues. GC will have to adjust or have all their players foul out by halftime.

I don't mean that so much as some of the line/out of bounds calls. I know GC gets the calls to a certain extent...

wc2viking · February 27, 2009, 08:19:24 PM

SNC missing tons of layups. You gotta make the layups that GC gives you to beat them.

skywaker9 · February 27, 2009, 08:25:55 PM

They're only shooting 50%. You have to shoot at least 65-70% against GC to win...

That's 2 on Grotberg, that's big...

Could anyone tell me about the various types of shoes that people are wearing?

pgkevin · February 27, 2009, 08:56:21 PM

My favorite moment has been the story about Matt Skelly? I think. He forgot his shoes against Monmouth and ended up wearing someone elses street shoes the entire game...

Elmhurst beats Augustana in the CCIW semis. That means LU will definately be ranked ahead of them come into selection time for Pool C should they lose to Grinnell or SNC tomorrow.

What it also means is that Wheaton and Elmhurst will both be ranked ahead of LU most likely for Pool C comparisons.
I'd root for Elmhurst to win the CCIW so Wheaton will be one of not the first Pool C teams selected so that LU will be next on the docket for the Midwest region.

Win tomorrow and it doesn't matter. Frankly I'd rather that happens.

GC's heating up; this could be a game down the stretch.

systemfan86 · February 27, 2009, 09:26:20 PM

Grinnell up and Long and Grotberg heating up which is good (for fans like me), but dang, if they pull this out, they are going to need to rebound better tomorrow.

pgkevin · February 27, 2009, 09:27:57 PM

61-57 Grinnell; St. Norbs shooting free throws with 12:00 left in the 2nd half

Long has started hitting a few shots...7/20
Grotberg only 3/23
