Tonight's CMU/WashU game holds some extra meaning for Tartan's head coach Tony Wingen. A win tonight will make him the winningest coach in CMU history.

Well if they needed any extra motivation...

Case's games today and Sunday will be held in Adelbert Gym for Throwback Weekend.  The gym was the home of Western Reserve University until the athletic teams at Case and WRU merged in 1972.

The Spartans will wear the maroon jerseys of Reserve tonight, and the blue jerseys of the Case Institute of Technology on Sunday.

Game times are 8PM tonight vs. NYU and 12 Noon on Sunday vs. Brandeis.  You can listen to them live at http://www.case.edu/athletics/varsity/broadcast/ on WHK 1420 AM.

The teams merged in '70.  In my day Reserve was more a bright red than maroon.  Will the throw back bring back Coach Simko's warm-ups to Duane Eddy's "Rebel Rouser"? 

The confusion seems to be succeeding; Mather only trails NYU by a point.

Thanks, cwru70.  The media guide I have has records only going back to '72-- I knew that Case and Reserve had separate athletic teams a few years after the federation, but I forgot how long it was.  But if we had a Throwback Weekend when I was a student there, maybe I'd have known that already.

I will grant you that possibly the bb tams didn't merge until '72, but I know football merged in '70.  In the days between 67 and merger of teams, the teams were known as Adelbert College of CWRU and Case Institute of Technology of CWRU. 

Listening to the broadcast, there are promos for Wackadoo's in Thwing.  The wackadoo was the name the old Commodore Deli gave to its subs.

BTW can you shed any light on what became of the freshman Rodriguez who had a lot of PT at forward early (maybe even some starts) but is no longer on the roster.

Glad to know there's still an R in the center circle in Adelbert Gym.

Great game in Pittsburgh right now. WashU leads by 7 CMU by with 4 mins. left in the 1st half. Both teams have made large runs in the first half and it seems to be the trend of the game so far.
