The William Paterson significant victory over Scranton was a neutral(N) win @ DeSales, not an away(A).

Amazing start for George Fox. 16-0 to open the game.

Once again Stevens Point live stats are frozen...Third time in three games! Anyone there want to talk to them?

BlueZone,
Are you on campus watching the video? If so, what is the quality of the feed?

25-4 George Fox?? Really looks like this is Amherst's tournament to lose especially if the Titans go down.

Don't be too sure about that...Wash-U defeats Chicago 63-58 to return to the Final Four...stopping Chicago's 21-game winning streak...Wash-U defeated 4 teams in the Top 10 to return to Bloomington.

Amherst is a great team, but I don't think it needs to be handed the trophy just yet...

Bruin,

Very, very poor! Choppy. It looks like we are watching a stop-action broadcast. 8-(

Toughest game for Amherst will likely be in the final and I would not be so quick to call them the favorite.

IWU launches one of the greatest comebacks ever, and win 61-60!

They trailed 16-0 and 25-4.

What a comeback!!! They only led for the last five seconds on top of that!

Congrats to IWU as they never gave up, good luck in the Final 4. A tough loss for the Bruins, but did play some great basketball this weekend in Wisconsin.

I was trying to check this, but a lot of the archived info hasn't been moved to the new d3hoops.com yet. I found that Hope won the national title in 1990 on their home court, but since then will this be the first time a host school remembered to be a gracious host by showing up for their own party?!

Two and three years ago, Hope was expected to do so, but came up just short. Last year IWU was #1 much of the year but was ousted 'prematurely' by UWSP. This year they get to be on the court instead of in the stands for the "Shirk Invitational"!!

After watching IWU come back from a double-digit deficit on Kean's home court earlier in the year, I wasn't surprised that they had what it takes to do it on a neutral court.

Wow I can't believe it my shocker pick made it to the final four. Good job CNU. Either way Greensboro managed to beat a final 4 team once.

Honestly though, CNU in my mind had a pretty easy track to the Final Four, which is the reason I picked them to get there.

Of note teams that beat Greensboro are 1-4 in the following round. Teams are just better off letting them win.

We'll see Friday if it was bad thing that they drew the team that won last year's championship on their court and who plays on their court every third year. In their favor is that they've beat the Bears four years running and didn't play them the two prior. They haven't lost to the Bears since Manning and Beehler were juniors.
