WUPHF

No. 1 Washington University plays No. 2 Emory University today.  The game is online at 10:30 CST: http://www.brandeis.edu/streaming/athletics/

The Washington University Press Release has an interesting factoid on this match-up:

Washington University and Emory have combined to win the last three NCAA Division III national championships, with the defending national champion Bears winning the title in 2007 and 2009. Interestingly, the team winning the regular season match-up fell in the UAA Championship match, but still went on to win the national title in each of those years.

WUPHF

For the second time this season, Washington University defeats the No. 2 Division III team in the nation with a 3-2 come from behind win over Emory.  Good work ladies.

WUPHF

Washington University plays No. 23 New York University.  An upset could be brewing as the Bears will be playing without one of their best and possibly without two.

WUPHF

New York University with the 3-2 upset over No. 1 and previously undefeated Washington University.  The Bears won the first and third set without their superstar libero and superstar quarterback.

Here's one to put in the "Somethin's gotta give right away" department:

UW-Oshkosh and Carthage meet right away in the first round. Best of this poster's knowledge that's the only instance in which 2 Top 25 teams meat in this tournament's opening match.
