St. John Fisher could be an east region sleeper team.   They just dismantled Alfred who are a good defensive team with wins against Brockport and Ithaca.  SJF had 25 more shot attempts compared to AU.

I would start keeping an eye on Utica.  9-2 after beating SJF in Rochester tonight while only allowing 56 points.  SJF had scored 95+ points the last 3 games.

Not even 24 hours after I say to keep an eye on Utica they lose by 40 to Nazareth.  Naz quickly becoming strong E8 favorites.

the E8 is weirdly layered this year. Naz, Fisher and Utica are all good to excellent. Sage and Alfred are fine I guess. Then you have four of the worst teams in the country all concentrated at the bottom of the same league. Keuka, Houghton, Hartwick and Elmira are a combined 3-43 this season.

Elmira played Naz relatively close which was odd.   Alfred has a good team with some solid wins against Brockport, Ithaca and Geneseo but they have 4 starters out right now which cost them against Sage.

two final scores on two consecutive nights, presented without comment:

Alfred 106, Keuka 68

Keuka 74, Alfred 72

Alfred has had a very strange year.   Beat Ithaca and Brockport and now lost to Keuka.

    Conference tournaments are fully on. It is time for upsets and great games happening at all times. The results will not only be conference champions, but NCAA tourney dreams realized ... and dashed.



Thursday on Hoopsville, we catch up with a number of teams which realize they have to keep winning this week if they want to keep playing next week. "There is no more next game ..."

There are plenty of guests to talk to, so we are jamming them into a super-sized show. Some have quietly emerged on top, or near the top, of their conference races and hope to use home court advantage to win an automatic bid. Others knowing they have to win to make sure to keep playing this season. And one coach who shows that there is a lot of things that are important during basketball season.


Guests include (order subject to change):
  • Chad Dickman, Hood men's coach
  • Sean Coffey, Utica men's coach
  • Pat McKenzie, St. John's men's coach
  • Jacey Brooks, SUNY Cortland women's coach
  • Christine VanHook, PSU-Behrend women's coach
  • Stephany Dunmyer, Oberlin women's coach
  • Todd Kent, UC Santa Cruz women's coach

Ewing Theory in effect for St. John Fisher?  2 of their best players got dismissed from the team halfway through the season and the team goes on a tear winning the AQ.

I don't know anything about this, but were they actually dismissed from the team? Looks like they were both grad students. Studies come first and they quit? Just curious.
