Yep, I get it. I have zero expectation that George Fox will host a sectional should they get that far. Sad for the the Northwest Conference to have to live with the reality of it being a freak rare occurrence. To me it makes it all the more impressive that the NWC has had a representative in the national championship game in 4 of the last 7 years.

Yep - very impressive since the men's side can't get to Salem it seems.

How They Fared (Complete)

Live stats on the Trinity/Schreiner game seem to be stalled with 2:16 remaining, so that entry in the report assumes that Trinity was able to protect their 14-point lead in the last two minutes. (edit: final score now entered below)

Respectfully,

1) I think that the men's game has more parity.  I think that the NWC women are as fine a hoops conference as there is in the country. 
2) The men have to go thru the toughest regions in the country to get to Salem (Central and West).
3) Plane flights are a real challenge at the D-3 level.

Dave 'd-mac' McHugh

Agreed on that to be sure, Ralph... but it isn't like the NWC doesn't see some of the toughest opponents on the women's side when they get to the second weekend. At that point, the cream of the crop is only left in women's basketball. There certainly is more parity in men's basketball, but the top of women's basketball is far more difficult based on the fact it is the same programs getting it done most years. So that last weekends can be pretty brutal.

And plane flights are challenge period.

How They Fared (So Far)

My first trial run for the new season; I did not bother to look up missing scores as I usually would. I assume there will be a new poll on Monday, 11/28; I will post a complete report next Sunday (no midweek report this week).

[removed remainder of post; superseded by the complete report]

How They Fared -- final report before the first in-season poll.

A few games are still in progress (or have not yet started); I will edit those in when available.

How They Fared (So Far)

One missing score for tonight (Evergreen St. @ Puget Sound), but I looked into my crystal ball and gave the win to PS, who lead by 31 late in the 3rd quarter as I write this.

Dave 'd-mac' McHugh

The season has started fast and for some teams they still haven't lost. Not unexpected for some, maybe completely unexpected for others.

And there is a big battle between #1 and #2 in Division III men's basketball on tap!

On Thursday's edition of Hoopsville, Dave is back in studio and talking to some of the teams who find themselves without a loss, but probably still with plenty of questions that remain unanswered. Many of the teams are nationally ranked, but one of the teams tonight finds itself undefeated and receiving narry a point in any of the Division III polls.

Also on Thursday's edition, Dave will talk LIVE with either #1 Amherst or #2 Babson. The two men's programs face off in a rare #1 v #2 regular season battle. We chat with the winning coach after the game.

You can watch Hoopsville below staring at 7:00 pm ET. We are also experimenting with simulcasting the show on Facebook Live! More info here: http://www.d3hoops.com/hoopsville/archives/2016-17/dec8

Guests included (in order):
- Bob Amsberry, No. 8 Wartburg women's coach
- Amy Reed, Rochester Tech women's coach
- Landry Kosmalski, No. 22 Swarthmore men's coach
- Jon VanderWal, No. 3 Marietta men's coach
- Either Dave Hixon (No. 1 Amherst) or Stephen Brennan (No. 2 Banson) men's coach

This is most likley the last Thursday edition of Hoopsville before the holiday break (due to D3football.com coverage of Gagliardi Trophy and Stagg Bowl next week and proximity of Christmas the following week). The Thursday edition of the show will return January 5, 2017 - but stay tuned if we change our minds in two weeks.

How They Fared (Nearly Complete)

My schedule later this afternoon is a bit uncertain, and there's only one game today among teams on the list (York @ CNU, 2pm), so I will post the report now, and edit that score in later if my schedule allows.

How They Fared (So Far)

A light week of action leading up to the final poll of 2016, with 17 of the 38 vote-receiving teams idle.

I discovered late last night that the file format for each team's schedule had changed slightly, so I had to do a little recoding this morning. The good news is that, because of the format change, future reports should now show when a game went to overtime. (The aggregated score reports have always included this information, but individual team pages had not.)

(EDIT - deleted because the complete report follows)
