MBB: Northwest Conference

[nwhoops1903]

Everybody have fun tonight.  Hopefully Linfield will Wang Chung tonight.

My little comment stirred up quite the ruckus  .  Point is that conference is what its about. 3 games 4 games 5....don't matter.  WW is good at home this year and has the wins to prove it.  UPS can't say the same..thats all.  Do I think UPS is good?  Absolutely!  Do I like WW more? Absolutely.  Had we lost in Tacoma I would have my mouth shut.  Go Pirates.

Haven't seen the box but looks like UPS handled Pacific well.  Good game.  My Pirates controlled the game and defeated Linfield by 9.  PLU wins and Whitman loses.

UPS looked strong tonight...a bit sloppy but they handled their business.  Way to get it done!

The loggers forced 34 TOs last night...pretty impressive.  They also held Howe to only  12 points.  I'd say thats a pretty good defensive effort.

Here are tonight games:

Linfield at Whitman

Lewis & Clark at Pacific Lutheran

Willamette at Whitworth

George Fox at Puget Sound

For those of you logger fans headed to Memorial Fieldhouse tonight, I'd encourage you to put your manly hood on hold and wear pink in support the "Think Pink" where the Loggers will be supporting Breast Cancer Awareness.  (http://www.ups.edu/x26028.xml)

If not, just come ready to cheer on our men & women!  Should be some good basketball!

Well Done!  UPS needs efforts like that to impress voters.  It would be cool to see UPS in top 5 by the time they come to Spokane.  This, of course, would make our victory even more impressive.

It will be interesting to see how the LC v PLU game goes.  Is LC serious?  Willamette will be gunning for us but I think we will hold them off.  Symes is really playing well and presents many matchup problems.  WW 81-65

My predictions:

Linfield 81 Whitman 69

Lewis & Clark 67 Pacific Lutheran 60

Whitworth 71 Willamette 66 

Puget Sound 89 George Fox 80

Pios have Rivera back for PLU this time. Huge game for both teams. Big difference between 6-4 and 5-5. I'm road tripping up to Tacoma to see the game! Never been to PLU's court. Go Pios!

we will see about that one!  WW still needs to get through Willamette tonight, and then LC and Pacific next week on the road...then UPS comes to town.  WW has some tough games coming up.  If they can make it through the next 3 it will be a huge weekend in Spokane against the Loggers!

"WW has some tough games coming up."

Logshow - no gimmes for UPS next week either - at PLU and at Linfield.

Very true, very true . The one @ Linfield is a scarey one

[LogShow]

Good luck tonight Logs! Get after those Bruins.

Logshow, were you at the game last night?  Did it look as bad as it did in the box score

[nwhoops1903]

WW plays poorly and have lost.  Willamette's Cameron Mitchell played very well as did the rest of his team.
No excuses other than Pirates never got on track.  Hats off to WIL.

Looks like a full moon.  GF is leading UPS with :15 to play.

Yes Fox wins, Krauel at the line with 3 seconds to go down 1 and CHOKES - misses both, Fox wins 78-77, what a conference
