Washington University is struggling in Hyde Park as the Maroons lead 33-17. The Bears are shooting 23 percent from the floor and 0.0 percent from three point range. Palucki and Fatoki with two points a piece.

WUPHF · January 10, 2015, 04:50:55 PM

Historical note: the last time Washington University lost to Chicago in Hyde Park, the Bears trailed by a mere 5 points at the half before falling 68-60.

Brandeis wins a tough one at home vs NYU, 57-54.

WUPHF · January 10, 2015, 05:06:37 PM

Chicago still leads by 16 with 11 minutes left with the Maroons out hustling the Bears in every regard. The Bears are still shooting 0.0 percent from three point range (0-14).

WUPHF · January 10, 2015, 05:24:34 PM

Chicago just about ready to knock off Washington University as they lead 61-36. The Maroons played a good game...nothing positive for the Bears. Palucki and Fatoki finish with four points each. Only Styczynski finishes in double figures.

Emory and Case Western Reserve both score road wins today, with the most convincing win of the day coming from the Spartans as they blasted Carnegie Mellon 80-46. Emory over Rochester 84-69

ADL70 · January 10, 2015, 08:15:42 PM

Eric Black lead CWRU from the bench with 15 pts and 10 boards. The bench was cleared with just over five minutes left. Fifteen Spartans played and thirteen scored. 52 points from the bench.

Gee.

Maybe we're better than I thought.

CMU was 9-2 going into this game, and we just BLASTED them on their home court.

Maybe the Spartans are this year's "sleeper" team.

I believe they are a sleeper team and will be a factor in this season's UAA race.

The Spartans appear to be a deep team that gets consistent production off the bench. The Black twins are a very intriguing addition to the mix. And, if you can win big in a conference game with Dane McLoughlin providing minimal scoring--as was the case vs. Carnegie Mellon--then you have a dangerous team.

Emory moves to No. 5 in the latest D3hoops.com poll while Washington University drops to No. 6 after the debacle on Saturday. Chicago enters the poll at No. 23.

Massey sees the league a little differently with the current rankings:

No. 8 Washington University
No. 10 Emory
No. 32 Chicago
No. 36 Case Western Reserve
No. 78 New York
No. 119 Brandeis
No. 151 Carnegie Mellon
No. 190 Rochester

Emory hits the road this weekend to play at Washington University on Friday and at Chicago on Sunday. I think for the Chicago and Washington University fans, these are as close to must-wins as we have seen in the early season in some time.

That's actually barely different.

I said a little differently. If you look at the common use of the word little, it could be used to convey condescension, but not always. Little...slightly...barely...they all explain the difference adequately in my mind.

It is your website and you can do what you want, but I am sure I speak for many when I say your nitpicks, found frequently around the boards, are unnecessary.

CWRU got maybe its first vote ever.

This is not true. I don't know if this is the full list but here are a few polls in which Case received a vote -- and it's not all ancient history, either.
