Congrats to our S/As and to Coach Nolt, especially w/o the 2 aforementioned player returnee losses.
Too bad E-town didn't play a 25th regular season game; it probably would have secured a pool C berth. Thomas More was available as an opponent(only 21 D3 opponents;willing to travel for games).

Congratulations on making it to the sweet 16 for the fourth year in a row Lady Royals!!!!Messiah,Tufts and Thomas More- had some tough games also not saying Scranton didnt.That is what makes basketball so exciting because anyone can win on any night.See you next weekend Lady Royals where ever that might be (Tufts,Messiah or CNU )Hopefully it is home (Scranton)

This is on the administration and athletic department, got to get more people out at these games.

Agree 100% Nepafan.Their communication with the public has failed miserably!Back in the days it was in the paper letting people know that a team was playing.Today you only see Scott Walsh and the news stations only during big games.They spend more time in High School sports then anything and it is a damn shame,The Ladies program has been outstanding with one of the best coaches in the nation in d3(Truthfully thanks to Dave and d3 hoops for the publicity they send out about all d3 teams.)The SID should really understand everyone doesnt have a computer,especially the elders in the area.So yes they have failed deeply!Guarentee if they didnt send out about having a pre game party, that half them people wouldnt have showed up!

Dave quick question when did you think Scranton was in trouble and you thought Hopkins was going to pull it out?

lefty2 · March 04, 2019, 06:45:53 PM

Rumor has it that if Scranton wins Friday, they are throwing a parade on Saturday.

That's always been deep in the selection criteria for sectional hosting; it goes to Scranton for the St. Patrick's Day weekend. Tufts and Messiah are happy to return from last year.

lefty2 · March 04, 2019, 07:03:04 PM

Maybe they should have a parade in conjunction with every home game to help with attendance.

saratoga · March 04, 2019, 07:12:40 PM

Lefty:

The only thing bad about throwing that "party" on Saturday is the students at Scranton are having the dorms close Friday evening for the start of Spring Break.

Hopefully, enough students living off campus will find their way back up the hill by game time to attend Saturday, should the Royals be fortunate enough to still be playing.

The UofS does everything in their power to get the students out of town for this weekend which ends up hurting the student attendance for these games.

I think they even have just about every Spring sport on the road somewhere with the exception of women's lax.

Just because one or two kids might try & have an adult beverage somewhere along the parade route, they make the whole school pay.

Go figure.

Sources close to me say the residence halls will be open.

I am trying to confirm that Trevor will be the grand marshall.

saratoga · March 04, 2019, 07:55:38 PM

Two more wins on Trevor's resume & Dave better break out the contract extension.

Rofrog · March 04, 2019, 09:07:25 PM

Remember them days when Mellody,Matt played-the place was packed they sold out during the week.Todays game you can buy them at the gym - day of game.Still remeber that game against Bowdoin like it was yesterday.So yes for some reason they are not filling the stands.(It is a damn shame to see it like that!!!) He has a great team and building a dynasty soon to be!!!
