What a shock. The stream of the Scranton/Messiah game doesn't work ...

That is a shame, sounds like it was an epic game!!!! Go Royals!

I just read your post and can't believe it. I shut it off when they were down 18 and figured it was status quo until I checked the paper just now. Wow! And Patterson lost as well...

  Yes, everyone thought it was over at that point-31 points in 33 minutes-but Luke hit a 3-ptr, Tina Hiltunen's dad got all of us fired up in the stands and it visibly carried over to the players; they hit a few more and we're back in the game. Still, we were down 7 with less than 2 minutes to go and their point guard looked like he could protect the lead(run out the clock, make foul shots, etc) and it still looked bad. But Messiah missed enough foul shots and Matt hit the big one.
  Becker won their game with strong offensive rebounding, something the Royals will have to negate. The good news: Mr. Hiltunen thinks he can make it back for tonight's game.

Who was the girl with the big mouth from Messiah that didn't shut up?

  Don't know anything about that.

If you were there, you had to hear her. Loud, obnoxious sounds coming through the radio, lol

What a comeback! Where does it rank  in Royal postseason history?

Not too high since past Scranton teams were usually way ahead. BTW, this is the Landmark's first-ever NCAA men's victory and nothing posted on the front page about it.

Yes there is.

Scranton rallied from an 18-point deficit and beat Messiah in overtime 70-67. Royals coach Carl Danzig, who earned his 200th career victory, said, "This has to be the largest comeback I've ever been involved in."

Can't give it more prominence than that considering all that went on yesterday but it's mentioned in our nightly wrapup with a link to the game story, like with just about everything else.

No, I read that. There just wasn't mention of it being the conference's first NCAA triumph. No biggie....

Just win baby!

Audio stream is working and for the second straight night, only one side of the bleachers are open.

GREAT JOB, SELECTION COMMITTEE!!!!!!!!!!!

If a Landmark team other than Scranton gets in , they are going to make a run in the NCAAs. Much to the chagrin of the Scranton contingent on this board. It is just the way life works. 

How do you feel the way life works now?
