2013 Division III NCAA Tournament

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

The good news is at this slow pace of the tournament, Pat Coleman can fly from Atlanta directly to Appleton, Wisconsin for the D-III World Series.

LOL and I am half tempted to fly straight to Philly for the lacrosse championship weekend

I'd be pretty confident going up against any state with the best from Massachusetts.  Tremendous balance with stars at center (Mayer/Kaasila/Tashman), point (Toomey / Kates / Berthiaume) and wing scorers (Epley / Jones / Coppola / Workman). 

Aaron Toomey, Amherst
Willy Workman, Amherst
Michael Mayer, Williams
Taylor Epley, Williams
Alex Berthiaume, Springfield
Mitchell Kates, MIT
Will Tashman, MIT
Sedale Jones, Curry
Marco Coppola, WPI
Peter Kaasila, Amherst

Gabriel Moton of Brandeis, Ryan Kolb of WPI, Nate Robertson of Williams, Ben Ferris of Tufts all could make a solid case as well.

That's definitely a who's who of fantasy leaguers!

So is the game start delayed or is the live feed just not working?

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

Live stats are running... not sure why the video from Cortland State is down.

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

Williams feed isn't working either.

Williams feed isn't working either.

None of them are

Middlebury wins 67-64 to be the first team moving on to the Sweet Sixteen.

Williams over Catholic by 3 (41-38) at the half.  Amherst over Plattsburgh 50-37 (also at the half).

Williams-Catholic feed now working.

Amherst over Plattsburgh 89-72.

Williams over Catholic.

Ohio Wesleyan has a really high quality video feed - also the commentators are very good.  I'm pretty sure they're students, but they know what they're doing.  No graphics, but the scoreboard is very clear on one side of the court.

Great game, as well.  These teams are very similar.  Both have a lot of scorers, led by a very talented guard.  The OWU big men are more complete players, which I think will be the difference.  It's great seeing Cabrini's aggressiveness going against Wesleyan's discipline.  Fun game.

OWU 39, Cabrini 37 at the half.  Crazy end.

OWU fouls Fran Rafferty on a three with three seconds to go.  He hits them all to cut it to two.  Then OWU launches a three quarter court prayer which looked to be going off the front rim when Cabrini's Goran Dulac jumped up, hand through the net, to knock it away.  The refs let it go, but it could have easily been called a goaltend.

Wooster all over Dickinson: 47-23 at the half.  All other games in progress are reasonably close.

RMC is up 9 at the half over WPI, but I'd call that 'reasonably close'.

Wooster and Amherst might be the only blowouts we get today.
