MBB: Midwest Conference

[The Roop]

At the half Beloit 25 Knox 23. What a shooting clinic.

[The Roop]

2nd half got better. Beloit 65 Knox 44.

At the half Beloit 25 Knox 23. What a shooting clinic.

Was it the annual Dick Bennett day? 

[The Roop]

No but Knox did have a ceremony for a former Coach that recently had a birthday. Didn't air all of it after the game however.

I am going to predict that Grinnell's hot shooting in the second half against Beloit will continue in Wisconsin, that someone will magically decide to cover Cerroni at the arc, and the Pioneers win 100-99 on 3 Marx foul shots with 0.4 left on the clock. This really would be miraculous, as Schuldes(?) is a really tough venue for GC. The gym is cold, the opponent always prepared,and the refs come directly from calling the hockey game earlier in the day. Also, does anyone really imagine there would be a foul call against the home team with less than a second left in a game?

* It was actually quite warm with a record crowd...

* The hockey game was AFTER... SNC clinched another conference title. It was a nice DH, with a stop at Five Guys in between...

Of course they did!

Lake Forest is coming to Alex to get spanked by the Vikes on Wednesday.

The question is.....  Is Lawrence ready to take care of business and possibly snatch a playoff spot from Grinnell - should the Pios upset by Cornell???  Only SNC and RC have clinched playoff spots according to the MWC website.

Remaining schedule and scottiesays....? (tm pending)

SNC (16-0), remaining games vs. RC and IC...............(18-0) Perfecto
RC (11-5), remaining games vs. SNC and KC...............(12-6) Knox ends season with a loud thud.  Celebrates team manager's bday at center court after game. 
GC (11-5), remaining games vs. COR and LU...............(13-5) Home cooking prevails.  But 11-7 could happen.
CAR (11-6), remaining game vs. America's Team.........(12-6) Sorry, The Roop!
LU (9-7), remaining games vs. LF and GC...................(10-8) Missed it by that much....  But 11-7 could happen.

[The Roop]

No need for apologies, Beloit was eliminated when they lost to Lawrence.

[AppletonRocks]

I see no way that GC can stop Cornell.  Might have to borrow a G-5 from one of those guys on the CCIW board for the play-in game in Grinnell next Saturday. 

[The Roop]

Should be interesting to see what the new regional rankings are when they come out. SNC has to move up as Augustana lost.

[scottie]

Oh, The Roop, The Roop, The Roop.....you disappoint me, my friend.  Do you really think that a #5 national ranking means that SNC will get any type of improved regional ranking consideration?  My guess is that they'll drop a few spots.   

[gbpuckfan]

Given the usual respect the MWC gets, I won't be surprised that UWW loses to UWSP in the WIAC tourney and SNC still goes to Whitewater for the first round.

[The Roop]

UMAC winner vs. SNC, with the winner going to Point. Hide and watch.
