Does anyone (maybe an NYU fan) know what happened to Jimmy Janeczek of NYU?  I thought he was a junior last year but he doesn't appear to be on their roster this year.  Thanks.

Unfortunately, it looks like Carnegie Mellon will not be going into UAA play with an undefeated record, as they suffered their first loss of the season tonight.

According to the CMU men's basketball schedule and results score page, Bluffton of the Heartland Conference was able to do what Princeton could not do-- defeat the Tartans.

The final score tonight was Bluffton 96, Carnegie Mellon 83.

Box score and stats will hopefully follow sometime tonight or tomorrow-- they have not yet been posted on either school's website.

Bluffton moves to 10-1 on the season with a 4-0 in-region Midwest record.  Bluffton's only loss of the season was a 1 point loss to non DIII opponent Concordia (Mich.) on Nov. 29.

Carnegie Mellon drops to 10-1 on the season-- the Tartans next come to Auerbach Arena in Waltham, MA to resume UAA play against Brandeis on Friday.

Here's a link for the CMU box score: BU/CMU.  (In the box score, CMELM = "Carnegie Mellon Men".)

Briefly -- Barlow-Wilcox had a great game (27, 12/18 from the field), Straub had 15 (5/8 from outside the arc), and Maurer had 19 despite being hampered by foul trouble.  The Tartans put on some strong runs, but the Beavers were able to respond each time.

If you look at the stats, the thing that jumps out at you are the FTs, fouls, and turnovers.  Bluffton attempted 33 FTs to CMUs 12. CMU was also called for nearly twice as many fouls as Bluffton (26-14).  Makes you think that some Bluffton's 16 steals may have been off no calls.  It is tough when you lose a game shootong 54% from the field and outrebounding your opponent.  Bluffton seemed to play a pretty solid game shooting well from the outside but those fouls and FTs are tough to overcome.

PowerBall

In reviewing Bluffton's info they've outshot their opponrnt +100 times from the free throw line.  They must have great penetrating guards or have a great ref program in the Heartland conference?

CMU guards never went to the FT line.  Are we not driving the ball or did we not get any calls?

Bluffton also starts 4 players 6'2" or shorter.  Although the 26-5 second half free throw disparity was partly due in part to 8 of those being in the last 2.5 minutes, when CMU was fouling to try to get back in it, the foul shot difference was still pretty bad at 18-5 for the rest of the half.  I guess sometimes you just have those games.  I don't think CMU should worry too much though, I am sure they will rebound in conference play this Friday at Brandeis.

I was at the CMU-Bluffton game last night. The foul differental was partly the cause of the CMU loss but the real factor was the hot shooting of Bluffton and that CMU just did not show up. Theres really nothing else that can be said. Hopefully this loss snaps the Tartans back to reality for the upcoming UAA schedule.

This is a little late but perusing one of my other favorite college basketball websites, I saw this video clip from the Carnegie Mellon-Princeton game.

You'll need Quicktime to view it and good eyes because it's really small.  All you UAAers and DIII fans enjoy!

Brandeis took out Curry last night... not a huge win right now, but I think it may turn out to be a 14 pointer for them come the end of the year.

Just saw Rochester play on Tuesday.  Even with the loss of Hauben, they remain a tough, physical squad.  Unless you can matchup with them physically my guess is you will struggle.  I wish I was in town for the CMU/UR game. 

Onyurika is a beast and the other forward they start, a sophomore (Ndubizu), has talent.  Their guards hit open shots and play solid defense.  Pretty standard Neer team.
