WBB: Landmark Conference

[saratoga]

Just my 2 cents...

The Lady Royals should be 13th. this week.

Can't kick the teams already in the Top 10 out as they kept winning or have just one or two losses.

As far as the Regional outlook, I'll go with the following for the first installment:

*G-burg-19-2

*Scranton-18-3

*Haverford-18-3

*Chris-Newport-18-4

*Albright-19-2

*Messiah-18-4

*Widener-17-4

Well, at least the d3 prognosticators didn't move the Lady Royals from 17th. to 21st. after winning two games this past week.

So, we've got that going for us.

Scranton moved a whopping 30 pts in 3 weeks after 6 wins over At Etown early loss and Catholic at home by double digits but when they lost 3 games to the number 9th team a team 10-8 and 17-4 you lose 370 but lose to a 2-18 team and fall to 11th I just asked the voters on top 25 to explain!

 Just a reminder of the difference between men's/women's bball rules:
Lady Royals had the ball in backcourt Sat(1st quarter) and called timeout before 10 sec count; count does not reset in women's ball after timeout but coaching staff and players seemed to be unaware and the 10-sec violation occurred soon after inbounding. In the men's game(CNU vs York) Sat, the same situation occurred but the count resets to 0 for the men on inbounding.

except shot clock operator only reset one of the two shot clocks in CNU vs York.  faked out multiple fans looking at closest shot clock (displaying 21) and remembering WBB game just 90 minutes before where York had 10 second violation in similiar situation

  21 secs was correct for the shot clock; only the 10 sec count for getting the ball possessed in front court gets reset to 0, not the shot clock.

got it.  so in other words, when going from women's to men's game, ignore shot clock for back court violation.

The refs will use the shot clock for 10 sec violation if there's no stoppage otherwise(foul, ball knocked out of bounds, timeout, etc.) but once a stoppage has occurred, then the trailing ref has to use his personal visible arm count to 10.

Not quite true ... they can still use the clock, they just reset where the violation time will be used. 21-10 = 11.

At least they are trying.

Curious: how many here go to games? I realize not everyone is "nearby," so of those who are "nearby" how many go?

When I went to Scranton in the 90s and in working there afterwards, I attended virtually every home game and the occasional games in Wilkes Barre. 

Now that I live just outside Philly, I've tried to get to most of the games in the Philly area (Del Val, Arcadia, Gwynedd, Cabrini) but wasn't as successful with that this year.

[VT-Alum-NOVA]

last year went up to Scranton for sweet 16 WBB thriller against CNU.  heart breaking loss.  first time i've ever been to Scranton and never knew about their big Saint Patty Day parade tradition until last year.

[Rofrog]

I attend alot and I mean alot!!
