MBB: Landmark Conference

[NEPAFAN]

I get it, and again I don't want to come off like a complainer.


But if I had F&M's feed with HD and score and time on the bottom, wouldn't be much of an issue.

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

Yeah... I know what you are saying. I also know that we have seen at D3sports that two streams don't tend get good numbers on audio-only broadcasts .

Scranton kisses any NCAA bid goodbye with a double OT loss tonight at the Long Center.
Scranton defeats Juniata twice during the regular season...most recently 3 weeks ago by 21 points yet in the game that counts, it's Juniata that makes all the right adjustments & pulls this one out.
The Royals basically handed this one to Juniata on a platter...up 10 with 3 minutes to play & held scoreless...in addition to missing the front end of a 1 & 1 with 6 seconds left.
Five losses at home this year & no bid with the talent he has...unbefrickenlievable.

[Matt Letourneau]

Wow.  I was sort of looking forward to Catholic-Scranton for the title game Saturday.  But Juniata was the other team to defeat CUA in league play this year so it will no doubt be a very tough game.  As Catholic can attest, Scranton's not an easy place to win a game for a road team.

 Scranton will be @ Catholic for the doubleheader; just won't be bringing along the men's team. Will be rooting 4 the Cards, so that the Royals have 1 more chance in the Pool C than they would if Juniata gets the AQ.

[TheGrove]

Welcome to Susquehanna's world, Scranton. Seems we'd always beat Juniata in the regular season just for them to whup us in the playoffs.

ETA: And at least you made the sports front of the T-T for the game. 

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

For those interested, I will be broadcasting both Landmark title games at Catholic Saturday. The link is here: http://ustre.am/uA0t.

Hey folks Dean Corwin here, while I don't post things here very often, if at all, I do check them out from time to time. Just responding to the reason to travel, many Dave has already mentioned.  Since we started whenever the men and women are double-booked (men and women playing at the same time in different places).  We have always decided to travel.  We have great community support and that is some of the reason why we have tried to stay on the radio.  Many of them still listen to the games and may not have computer access to watch or listen to the games online. 
Congrats to the Lady Royals for a tremendous effort last night in their victory.  Tough one for the men, still a great season, despite losing a bunch of seniors from last years team.

I am very grateful that the university has video, especially after the debacle with D3hoops a few years ago.

But why do you send your radio guy on the road? Let Moravian call the game, provide video, etc.

I would rather have the complete package at home.

Just a thought.

Thanks Dean, it was a moot point after all as Harry Dammer was doing play by play on the video. On behalf of everyone who watches and listens, thank you for your service over the past few years. A disappointing end to the season, but I hope for some blue chippers and will root for CUA to represent the conference in the tourny!

Matt:


My buddy, let's call him CC says there is no way you were looking forward to facing Scranton.



Scranton has owned Catholic lately.

[Matt Letourneau]

Why?  Catholic beat Scranton at home once already, and Catholic is undefeated at home this year.   Obviously you want to win the league, but the pressure is off a little bit because they should be in good shape regardless.  (Though of course playing at home next weekend could be on the line).   But it would have been an ideal opportunity to end the notion that your buddy, let's call him CC, expressed. 

That said, Juaniata is a good team that certainly earned the right to be the championship game.  Like Scranton they have to win to get in so I'm sure we're going to get their best shot and it will be a good game. 

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

If Scranton got to this game... they probably didn't have to win to get in... just saying.

Don't rub it in Dave!!!

[Matt Letourneau]

Your analysis earlier seemed to have them borderline, based on the number of teams ahead of them in the regional rankings.  You really think that one win would have taken them off the bubble?

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

No... they would have been on the bubble and any significant number of losses by lock teams would have kept them out, but they would have improved their SOS and their RvRRO so I think that would have allowed them to potentially move up the regional rankings and given them a shot.

I also said they probably didn't have to win to get in...
