Carleton 84  Corn 58

The Carleton train rolls on.  I believe Carleton has clinched a spot in the MIAC tournament if they already hadn't.  With two games to go the scenarios are getting clear.

Carleton wins their next two they carry The BeltTm into the MIAC Tournament

Carleton travels across town to St. Olaf on Wed.  If St. Olaf wins the Oles would just about qualify for the playoff but would have a game with Augsburg who is technically still alive for a playoff spot.

Carleton travels to Gustavus Adolphus on Saturday , Gustavus has been eliminated from playoff contention.


There was also mention of a goat on the broadcast.  I....have no idea.

The cross town rivalry in the D3 hotbed of Northfield, MN is home to this beautiful trophy for the two basketball teams. The Goat!



Coach Guy Kalland defeated his alma mater today (Yes he is a fellow Cobb!) as the Knights shoot it crazy from deep, for a team not known for its 3-pt shooting. That coupled with the great defense Coach Kalland hangs his hat they are tough to beat...

That game against the Golden Gusties could be the golden opportunity for The Dream ScenarioTM.

Yes Gustavus is just bad enough at being good that they could swipe The BeltTM from the Knigts who are rolling... What a game that would be if Carleton holds on to it Wednesday.

This.....is....the coolest.......thing......ever. 

Next to The BeltTm of course.

I can confirm the goat has been taken by the Carls for the first time in 6 years and the Beltâ„¢ has been defended.

Not pictured is Coach Guy Kalland off in the corner of the gym shinning The BeltTM and preparing it for the game against the MIAC Playoff eliminated Gustavus Gusties... Could The Dream ScenarioTM happen on Saturday? Personally I came into this season excited for the possibility, but I don't want to see this Carleton streak end!

Gustavus is not beating Carleton.  The Knights are ridiculously good on defense.  If they make the tournament they look to me like a team that can make a run.

Twelve straight wins and only one of those was closer than 14 points.

This is tempting BeltTM fate


Carleton has but one more hurdle in a trip to Gustavus Adolphus Saturday.  A win locks The BeltTm into the MIAC and ultimately the NCAA tournaments.  A loss and we can all go home for awhile.


It really should be the Goat BeltTm this week in deference to this magnificent creature.

I decree the D-III Championship BeltTM will in fact be called the Goat BeltTM until such time that Carleton no longer possesses ItTM. Please comply in all future posts. Or else, you know...

It's always been the G.O.A.T. BeltTM, right?  So is it now the GOAT Goat BeltTM?  OR is the GOAT part really just redundant with BeltTM??

Carleton 63 Gustavus Adolphus 60

Carleton holds Gustavus scoreless for the final 5:23 and survives a couple 3-point tosses to carry the Goat BeltTm into the post-season.

I pin it on one of two things: either the Goat is a peaceful mammal who doesn't want to come across as threatening, or they're so new to the business of legal defense of The BeltTM that they haven't devolved to the state of the old Legal WeaselsTM. I mean, they probably haven't gone back through all 115 pages of this thread yet...
