March 14th pick-em

Gettysburg          vs      Ursinus
Rochester            vs      Coast Guard

It is sad that the brackets worked out that our Conference teams play each other and one of them will get knocked off, but at least that means one of them goes to the elite 8.

Good luck to all teams..have the picks in before tip off.

Congratulations to both Ursinus & Gettysburg not only on their wins...but, in the dramatic fashion they were accomplished. As old ends stated...too bad they both meet in the 1st. round game but, any way you look at it, they've both had great seasons & hopefully one will continue on to the Final Four. Best of luck to both schools.

This weeks game is the fourth time that Ursinus and Gettysburg meet this season.  Can Ursinus beat Gettysburg four times?  Is that going to be a difficult challenge for Ursinus or is Ursinus just in the Gettysburg players' heads and GC has no chance?  Just a question from someone outside the conference I haven't seen either play.

As hugenerd stated, Ursinus is hosting next Friday and Saturday. Should make someone a home town favorite..

My picks

Gettysburg          vs      Ursinus - Hope court advantage wins but 4 wins against any team is a tough challenge

Rochester            vs      Coast Guard - Cinderella stops here

Reserved Seat

Great weekend for the Centennial Conference.

Next round picks
Ursinus
Rochester

I looks like I missed a great game at Gettysburg.  My friend(a graduate of Gettysburg) and I were going to go to the game at the last minute, but figured we wouldn't get seats.  Where were the fans?  Where was the community?  The gym looked empty.  It was more crowded for a regular season game.  I regret not going.  Three three-pointers in the last minute, that's some incredible pressure shooting.

    Attendance surprised me also. Fri nite < 500; didn't expect anybody from Massachusetts, but Scranton had no students either, only players' families, yet there were 1200 at the Scranton women's regional that nite.

Here's some information on the Ursinus sectional.  Includes accommodation, dining, directions, and team info:

Should be a great weekend for all involved and the conference as a whole.  Safe travels to those venturing to Helfferich for an exciting weekend!

Play-off Pick-em's for 3/14

Ursinus-- They just may make it to the final four
Coast Gaurd--They have won some tough games before this will be another one.

D.B. Cooper

3/14 Sectional Picks

Gettysburg: All logic says Bears take Hat Trick + 1. But if Shattuck is slightly impaired, Powers may be able to lead underdogs around & over Shema to the Elite 8. Tough to beat an excellent team four times.

Rochester: Yellowjackets sink the Coast Guard & Swarm toward the Final Four.

Buckeye

I'm assuming that the attendance at Gettysburg was lower than expected for the first two rounds because the students were on break...?  I would certainly expect a strong showing at Ursinus from the Gettysburg faithful this week.  Should be fun and I agree that it's tough to beat any team 4 times in a season.  Ursinus probably should win, but you never know... either way it's great for the Conference!

Pick'ems:

Ursinus

Coast Guard - Rochester has a better lineup, but Coast Guard has won a couple of tough games as Old Ends indicated, so I go with Coast Guard for a mild upset.

Heh Pat Coleman:  is the Salem prize package mailed to me, or do I have to pick them up at the Call Window   :D ;)
