Mr. Ypsi

Probably everyone who cares is already watching the game, but just in case:  at the half, Amherst 29, Benedictine 25.

On the video link, was watching it before...took a shower and came back. All I'm getting is a frozen ad.  ???

I'm refreshing...

I would feature my Muskies in my signature if there was actually something to feature.

As previously mentioned on the NACC board, the only claim to fame the Muskies have is winning the NACC tournament as a 6th seed (all the road wins were in OT)...but during a year the conference tournament champion didn't receive the NCAA AQ!

I spent my childhood growing up at Pointer games as my dad was a professor at UWSP and led the pepband (this includes 3 trips to Kansas City as a member of the NAIA). I spent 3 years at Lakeland. If the Muskies ever do accomplish anything on the hardwood, I'll probably be the 2nd person to let you know. My personal claim to fame as a Muskie was being a member on the only conference championship in Lakeland history in soccer.

Well, there was Senator Ed Muskie of Maine.

Stop, you're making me cry.

Well, not sure if I was the only one with problems, but it would've been nice to see the 2nd half!  :'( Not sure what happened as the 1st half worked fine. Looked (by live stats) a great 2nd half.

No need to worry about the 2nd semifinal as the Wisconsin Badgers are on at 6 pm Central time and then my high school alma mater is playing in the State semifinals for boys basketball on TV around 8:30 pm.

I'm assuming the championship game is on CBS Sports again?

Benedictine 63
Amherst 60

Amherst's Connor Green missed a potential game-tying trey at the buzzer. Defensive-oriented contest, but neither team shot well even when they had open looks. As one would expect from a game in which both defenses were sharp, neither team enjoyed a double-digit lead at any point in the ballgame.

Benedictine outrebounded Amherst by 20, which was the most tell-tale stat of this contest.

I restarted my laptop and I'm watching the rest of the 2nd semifinal.

I was watching the Badgers so I wasn't on the laptop anyway.

St. Thomas defeats Christopher Newport 66-62. So the Bennies meet the Tommies for all the marbles.

Tomorrow it'll be suburban Chicagoland versus the Twin Cities, so yet again we're going to have a champion from the heartland.

This will be the first appearance by an undefeated team in the national championship game since UW-Platteville went 30-0 and won it all back in '98.

This will also be the first time that two Catholic schools have met in the D3 national championship game.

 CNU loses only 2 games this year, to the U of St. Thomas Tommies tonight and to Scranton, which, before it was taken over by the Jesuits in 1945, was the St. Thomas College Tommies.
