CCIW and Midwest Regional posters - Your Vote is needed - Pat has a reader poll on D3hoops.com for NABC D-III All-Star Game. Stevie D is on the list and he deserves (and needs) your vote.

Good call. I just went and voted and was shocked how far behind Stevie D is. I don't know what the absolute numbers are, but the percentages don't look good. Everybody get over there and vote. Steve has been too much a part of our D3 basketball fun over the last four years to not support him now. Vote early and vote often.

It seems to only let you vote once.

Not that I tried to vote more often, I just heard it wouldn't let you if you tried.

Nothing wrong with having a few friends vote

I wonder if we can vote again tomorrow.

Pat Coleman · March 01, 2011, 08:01:21 PM

No, it's just once per computer per poll.

Hum - if I go to the library (or campus computing center) log on from different machines with different IP addresses?

How did a kid named "Wade Chitwood" from Grinnell, IA get away from his hometown college??

Pat Coleman · March 01, 2011, 10:32:38 PM

I asked the same question of Tim Grosz on Hoopsville last Monday night.

Starts at the 15:09 mark.

It could be because the admission requirements at Northwestern (WI) pale by comparison to those at Grinnell, a school that is among the finest academic small colleges in the country.

In their last two appearances in the NCAA tourney(2008 and 2007), the Augie Vikings did not make it past the first weekend of the tourney despite having home court advantage both times at Carver. Hopefully this year they will change that history, although this Viking team does not have anyone with tournament experience (other than garbage time minutes for Croegaert and Rorer in 2008), when they suffered a first game loss to a very average Carroll College team, probably not as good as this year's first game opponent (Webster).

This year's Augie team appears to better than the 2007 and 2008 teams, but they have to quickly learn there is a whole new dynamic come tourney time. They certainly looked like they have the necessary focus based on the game Saturday night in Naperville, but we'll know for sure by this time Friday or Saturday night. Grey Giovanine has a great regular season record at Augie, but his NCAA tourney record can use a some improvement. Hopefully, this is the year.

I know most everyone but Augie fans cannot stand Coach G, but the Augie players overall are a classy group, who play hard and are deserving of success. I hope for the sake of Kyle Nelson and the other seniors that they have a few more weeks of BB left before graduation.

Good luck to both CCIW teams. We can only hope they have one more Augie-IWU rematch this season. That would be great news for both squads and the CCIW.

I see young Grey Giovanine is a junior on the Moline High School varsity squad this year. Does Dansand or anyone else in QC area know if he is DIII material or is high school going to be it for him. I see he hit 9 3-Ptrs tonight to advance in the IHSA 3-Pt competition before tonight's regional game between Moline and Pekin, so I guess like most coach's kids, he knows how to shoot the rock.

I heard this morning that the Augie students will be on spring break and not on campus this weekend. If that's true, how much does it reduce Augies home court advantage?
