MBB: Landmark Conference

[Matt Letourneau]

In recent years it seems that interest in the CUA women's team has picked up (which is great) but it has always ebbed and flowed (as has the men's).  I certainly wouldn't say that the women always outdraw the men. 

I would love for there to be better attendance at all games, but when the team is good the students and alumni do tend to show up.  A good home court is there when they need it.

Congrats to Scranton on another title--well deserved.   I think we could have at least challenged had our best player not gone down--this year's team had a lot of talent but was not to the point where they could absorb that kind of loss.  The good news is that we had not one senior so I have high hopes for next year.  Good luck to the Royals in the tournament.

Matt,
  You're right-the loss of Limberiou changed things significantly.

Scranton isn't hosting!!!

unreal, catholic gets to host last year but no respect for Scranton this year.

Please enlighten me...how the heck does Scranton lose a host site with their numbers, location & amount of fans they can bring in?
Tools!

I'm not a Scranton homer but it seems ridiculous that they aren't at home.  At first glance the entire Middle Atlantic got very little respect with only one team hosting, Dickinson going to Ohio and Alvernia/Wesley playing each other.  Freedom winner(Desales) getting sent south has become a norm with Del Val being sent twice in recent years.

Are Scranton's women a potential host team?  If so, maybe that displaced the men.  Not sure which team gets preference this year in the rotation.

Scranton homer or not....not seeing any justifiable reason for Scranton not hosting. The men have preference over the women this year. Royals are getting hosed.

[NEPAFAN]

DMAC, give Scranton one more dig.


Going on the record picking Hobart?

Nice job NCAA hacks!
Three (3) SUNY schools hosting, including 1 that plays in a frakin dump.
Well done guys, well done!

Agreed. Dave and I are both confused as to why Scranton isn't hosting and we'll ask that of Steve Ulrich, the committee chair, in just a moment.

Not only does Scranton not host, but they get shipped up North. Tough for the fans to travel and not a traditional hotbed of Scranton supporters.

It's true that three schools from the SUNY system are hosting but only two are in the SUNYAC and SUNY-Purchase is in the Atlantic, not the East.

Congrats to all the Landmark 1st and 2nd teamers. I think everyone ended up where they should. Also, nice to see coach Danzig finally get Coach of the Year.
