The lakeshore area gets an earlier edition of the GR Press.  There was a large article in the later edition.

I imagine it was this one

Thanks, Sac for the link, and al for the reasoning.  Hadn't run into that issue before this game.

I found it hard to believe this is UW Platteville's first trip to the NCAA's since 1998 like the "capsule" states.  Probably because UWP won the 1999 National Championship.

During the 90's they were a fixture in March, they made the tournament every year from 91-99 and bost an unbelievable 30-5 tournament record with 4 National Championships.  1991, 1995, 1998, 1999

It's not every day you can hear the "where's your banners" chant two straight games.

Sadly there was no competitive cheer back in my day.  I don't think I could fit in the uniform anyway, ........and no one wants to see that.

I wouldn't expect anything less from that wonderful publication!

One simple typo, one number off and The Sentinel gets blasted. Check Platteville's web page, it says first trip since 1999. How many games have they covered and how many Hope stories have they written?

If my math is correct. Jesse Reimink will go into Friday's game with 533 career rebounds. This puts him 5th all-time in the MIAA, behind Willie Dawkins of Alma (551) but well ahead of Craig Vossekuil of Kalamazoo (441). He is still far behind Floyd Brady's all-time Hope (and league) record of 648.  Jesse, Travis DePree, and Jeremy Veenstra are the only players of this decade in the top ten. He is Hope's 27th league MVP, 6 ahead of Calvin.

This may be totally irrelevant but who's Niebs and Vander Bent?  Any relation to the "incident?"  

Those two guys are Calvin students who some may say are the 'cause' of the "incident," others argue it was the Hope kid running in front of the Calvin section...    Caleb Nykamp is his name, I believe.
