WBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

With ONU it sounds like they are going to hire their assistant to keep this style going.  They have a healthy following in the community that was not there before they started running this style.

That's always nice when a school gives an assistant a shot at the HC slot. Good Luck to him. ONU is only about 30 min from where I live.

I hope ONU keeps up that style of play, which is very entertaining and amazing =  the Grinnell of D3 women's hoops. 

We are celebbrating our National Champions tonight -- and our national semi-finalist men's team, too.  7 p.m. @The Shirk.  Should be smiles all round.  Good alot folks from the community can come celebrate as many many fans couldn't travel to Salem or Holland.

New babies are alway great news! Congrats to them.

Congrats to Tethnie and her family.  Hope to see her back next season, or whenever she's ready.

Hello everyone,

While I usually post in the Mid-Atlantic, Landmark Division Boards, I wanted to come here and congratulate Illinois Wesleyan on winning the National Championship.  I was at the University of Scranton in 2005 when the Lady Royals made it to the title game, but we unfortunately could not get to the mountain top.

I was looking at footage of the buzzer beater from the Sweet 16 and was curious as to something.  It seemed like the IWU head coach tried calling for a time out a few seconds before the shot was made when they didn't have any.  However, there was no call.  I was just wondering if 1) anyone noticed it; and 2) if anyone has any idea as to why it wasn't called.  I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade here, I am just curious.

Again, congrats to IWU!

My best guess is that no official saw it or could react to it before the shot was taken.

Mia Smith has said that she had just reminded every one "no time outs, no time outs!".  Almost immediately she found herself trying to call one and being called back by her assistants.  Yes, lucky for IWU that the refs didn't catch it.

I didn't notice it while watching the game live from home, but did see it afterwards.

Thanks for the congrats.

What coach hasn't done that at least once during their career. 

[D-3 watcher]

That wasn't the only break the Titans got in that game, they were not shooting free throws yet, so both coaches kinda of froze up. I believe they still had 2 fouls to give. Mount Union's going to think about those 2 things for a while.

Yes I do! It's somtimes hard NOT to get caught up in the excitement of a great game

It's also possible that the referee knew that IWU didn't have any timeouts and so the request was ignored. That's the correct thing for the official to do if the referee is aware of it. A technical foul for an excessive timeout is only called if the referee stops the game.

Thanks for the heads up.
