I believed it when I saw the bracket, and nothing happened in the first round to change my mind. I think the championship game will be played between the winners of the bottom brackets.

I just think each of those brackets have 2-3 teams that will prevail over any of the teams that come out of the upper brackets.


I give credit to Amherst for challenging WashU more than I thought they would. That being said, the bottom half of the bracket on each side did prevail as I thought would be the case when the tournament started.

Officials for today's national championship game are all from the Northeast Region:  Leslie Boucher, William Dugan, Maggie Tieman-Montefeltri.     These three officials have a lot of experience calling UAA and NESCAC games.

Halftime of title game--

Wash U 24, Hope 20

This is playing a lot like the low scoring game at Brandeis earlier this season.  I'm sure that the Bears would love to win this game by a similar score.

Looks good for Wash U at the moment-- Wash U is undefeated when leading at the half all of this season-- having won their previous 22 games when leading at the half.  (22-0 this season when leading at the break.)

Final--

Wash U 65, Hope 59

The UAA captures the women's basketball championship for the first time since 2001.

Wash U gets their fifth national championship after two unsuccessful attempts in 2007 and 2009-- the third try to get the fifth was the charm.

True.  To that effect, here's our game story.

1. I am glad that a DIII bball game was shown live on TV around the country. Even if it had to be at 3pm, a lot of my friends and family were able to check in and watch the game.
2. I had a great time in bloomington. I love that beer nuts are what paid for the arena. Very cool, although, I could have used a little more leg room.
3. I am choosing to ignore the jacka** making those posts earlier. I'm not sure you are a Hope fan...and I highly doubt you are, but if I know you, send me a message and perhaps you can better explain yourself, b/c right now you are just coming across as ignorant.
4. (Should have been 1)...congrats to coach MO and an amazing Hope program. We are all very lucky to enjoy this AMAZING run over the last 14 years.
5. I don't blame refs. They are doing the best they can in a thankless job....but for a championship game, the NCAA gave us 3 that were not up to the task. I don't know if this is a group, or 3 singles they put together, but they failed on may levels. I don't get as upset over missed calls and such...those happen. But the HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE decison to reset the shot clock as the end of 1st half is WRONG. tipped pass. timout Wash U. Should have been 6 seconds on the shot clock and 32 or so on the game clock....which is what both teams planned for during timeout and TV timeout...then 15 seconds before they put the ball in, one ref went over and had the shot clock reset. COACH MO LOST HIS MIND.....as did myself, fans....you can't do that! What are the rules for resetting a clock? Both teams planned for 6 left on shot clock during timeout and they changed it? Mo just wanted the refs to get together and talk about it...or explain to him the decision. BAD BAD BAD. That play did NOT decide the game, but just an example of refs a bit out of their league....and this is a CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!
6. Agian, CONGRATS TO WASH U ON A CHAMPIONSHIP. Congrats to hope on an amazing run....you gave us all a great treat  HOPEfully we can all be back there next year to enjoy another great run by the FLYING DUTCH!

I took the regional rankings and the conference leaders to "if the season ended today" determine the field of 64.  The east coast isn't too hard to figure out, but the further south and west you go gets hard, with that 500 mile rule, teams aren't that close together.  I told myself, forget it, let Pat Coleman and his team figure it out :)

Guy,

Are you gonna bless us with what you came up with? It would be great fodder for discussion (and to upset Troutman).
