 UMHB chooses defend rather than foul in final seconds; survives despite a great look by St. Mary's

Thanks, GS!  I had to work all afternoon and did not get to see the game.

St Mary's loses to Mary Hardin-Baylor  69-66 in another barnburner. 2 great games so far today.

Yep. Small crowd in Salem thus far, but they're getting their money's worth.

Thats too bad. A chance to see SEVEN games in two days is hard to pass up. I was considering coming even with no WIAC team in the Elite 8, but alas, kitchen and bathroom renovations are needed.

After the statement I made about Cabrini's fearlessness, they (outside of Walton-Moss and Rafferty) really seemed scared in the first half against Amherst.  It cost them.  Once you're down to a team like Amherst, it's tough to come back.  Valiant effort in the second half, though, but Amherst is looking like a juggernaut.  I'd really like to see how they match up against North Central.

This should be a great Final Four.

Yes, go NCC!

At the half, NCC 40, Midd 37.  Vince Kmiec on fire with 17 points.

i'll be very curious to get the attendance numbers in salem.  i'm not sure this 75th anniversary change-up has been good for the teams or the fans.

I've been watching these in and out all day, North Central is easily the best defensive team among these 8 teams.

I couldn't believe how much space St. Thomas and Williams gave each other.

These numbers are fairly suspicious to me.

Salem doesn't tend to cook the books... but it is more of a paid attendance than at the gate.

I realize its a big place and the cameras haven't panned to the one side of the arena all day but its never looked like that many people were in there at any one time today.

NCC 77 Middlebury 65.  Quick start for Midd, but they got worn down in the end.

Those numbers can't be right...the crowds were awful all day (even more awful than those numbers).

Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)


It would make sense if those are paid attendance numbers, that they're rising with each game.  Perhaps some schools didn't return their unsold allotment?  Maybe a whole heap of people were planning to only come Saturday?  I have no idea.

We couldn't see one side of the court on the footage, but it didn't look like there were many people there at all.

I think its just difficult for people to commit both time and money to making two long trips within two weeks.

I doubt I could have a trip to both Salem and Atlanta.
