Carnegie Mellon was once two or three institutions if I remember right.

They should do something similar.

I don't think the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research ever had a basketball team.

In the early part of the 20th century, well...

They could go with one throwback day and wear a Carnegie Tech "Scots" jersey.

Earlier this week, Emory University was named as NABC DIII Men's Basketball Team of the Week for games played Jan. 27 to Feb. 2.  Congrats on the honor.

Chicago upsets Emory! Holy cow!

One of the crazier finishes I have seen.

Chicago was up 80-71 before fouling a perimeter shooter who proceeded to make three.  Then Emory blocked the inbounds pass which landed on the foot of the Chicago inbounder.  Emory gets the ball back.  Then Chicago fouled the perimeter shoot again who proceeded to make three shots.

Chicago would finish the game 84-76.

Chicago Beats Emory....

NYU gets their first conference win of the season, defeating Carnegie Mellon 80-79.

Eric D'Aguanno has just set the Brandeis program record for most 3's made with the 232nd made 3 of his career with 3:10 remaining in regulation.
