Tough loss for Hope - Olivet scored with 77 seconds left to tie the game 1-1, then won it 8 minutes into OT.

Actually, there were 137 seconds left when Olivet tied the game ... 2 minutes and 17 seconds were showing on the clock ... Even crazier was the kid who scored the tying goal had officially subbed in the game just 22 seconds earlier ... And the overtime goal was scored with 1 minute and 50 seconds left.

Hope's website had the time listed as 77 seconds, so that's probably where you got confused!  ;)

Calvin is back! After some bumps in the road, the real Calvin is coming forward. Look for them to be a force for the rest of the season.

Well.... At least they are still in 1st place.  :-[

Great goalkeeping performance by Graham Wallace in the 0-0 draw for Alma and Calvin....

The Knights are really stepping it up. It looks like they are showing that they are the class of the MIAA. Five straight conference titles. Great job Knights!

Yeah, the four goals Calvin scored against Trine match the four goals Trine allowed in total the whole rest of the MIAA season to date.

Massey now has the MIAA as

Calvin #23
Hope #57
Trine #70
Olivet #104
Albion #157
Adrian #213
Kzoo #217
Alma #230

The power range between top and bottom is 2.9 goals.

Olivet upsets Calvin in the first round of the MIAA tournament! Will play at Hope for the Championship and AQ

Not a great 1st experience for the Knights with the conference tournament.
Did anyone see the game?  By looking at the stats, it looks like Calvin had the better of the play. With four yellows it looks like it was probably a pretty chippy game as well. Of course any game involving Olivet will be chippy because of their hard nosed style of play.

Colago broke his tibia. That was really a "bad" break for the Knights, he was one of the leaders on the team. Hopefully, they will have done enough to get a pool C bid.

Nail biting game at the VanAndel this afternoon, right up to the last 5 minutes or so.  Congratulations to the Dutchmen on the exciting win, and to the Comets for a great game.

I got a text saying it was 1-1 with five minutes to go and assumed I'd be getting an OT text update in 15 minutes or so, but next thing I know, I get a text with a 4-1 regulation score...

What happened? Olivet make some mistakes? Hope pick up offensive intensity a lot?

Hope had really dominated the game, and in the last 5 minutes finally reaped the rewards of that.  After the first goal by Matt VZ, Olivet adjusted their play to try to really push forward (made sense being down 2-1 with under 5 to play).  Hope did a great job of counter-attacking, which lead to the other 2 goals (the last being a pnealty shot from a foul on a breakaway in the box).

Truth be told, the final score should actually have been 6-1.  Hope had goals in both halves that weren't given to them. No fouls, no offsides, in both cases the goalie was beaten, and a defender cleared the ball (which had fully crossed the line) from inside the goal.  Fotunately these misses by the officials did not affect the final outcome.
