Hobart goes to Rochester and beats the undefeated # 6 NPI ranked Yellowjackets 97-88. Hobart shows their depth  as 10 players score in the first half. Although Hobart lost four starting Seniors, I think this team is much improved.

Quote from: Jonny Utah on November 23, 2025, 04:22:12 PMWe might need to go to the top on this one.  ESPN is run by a Cornell grad.  They are owned by Disney who is run by an Ithaca (d3) grad. I will write an email to the top and get back to the LL board with the response. I expect nothing but the best on this one.

Hobart Basketball wins their tournament by decisively beating SUNY Maritime and a 84-70 win over a very strong Hamilton team. If last night's win over Hamilton was an indication of what to expect for the LL season, I think this will be a great year for Hobart basketball. Hobart has a solid starting lineup and a deep bench that is already gelling. 

Quote from: unionpalooza on November 22, 2025, 04:09:28 PMPatch had some kind of stomach bug, and was puking all over the sideline to start the second half. 

Yikes valiant effort by the LL OPTY.

Union looks like they put up a good fight but the Mules are a very good team. Congrats to Union on a LL title and the close game today. RPI takes care of business and Hobart is rolling to a 42-7 lead in the fourth quarter in NYC. Cortland loss to Springfield kinda raps up a mediocre season for New York D3 football. Here's to improving our teams next year!

Good luck to Union tomorrow, although I'm also partial to Muhlenberg with Nate Milne(Hobart 2003) at the helm. I think Patch is a challenge for any defense.
Hoping RPI ans Hobart are both winners in their bowl games tomorrow.

William Smith has a nail biter against Lynchburg and comes back down 1-2 to win. Hopkins tonight, you never know. This team is hungry.

LL gets two teams in the ECAC Bowls, RPI and Hobart. RPI plays an improved St.John Fisher and Hobart plays Marine Maritime down in NYC. I'm hoping we can both get wins. At least the Seniors get one more game.

A fair assessment. Hobart struggled to score at times during the season, which is reflected in the 5 ties, but our goalie and defense were special.There is always next year.

In the old days, without the NPI, I think Ithaca would have made the tournament based on beating a strong OOC in Cortland and finishing second for the LL title. I don't think having Hilbert or Buffalo State would have mattered. But now, the entire league is scrutinized with the NPI algorithim and each member's rating is downgraded. I feel badly for Hilbert who is just trying to build a program, but it made no sense to let them in the LL until they spent a few years as an independent building their program.
Muhlenberg is a fair first opponent for Union and I wish them luck getting to experience playing in Alliance. It sucks for Ithaca after such a dramatic win.I noticed they did not apply for an ECAC bid, it might have been nice for the team to have a post season game. It looks like RPI will be selected for an ECAC Bowl game. Hobart and Rochester applied but I'm not seeing them getting selected, although I think they would compete well. 

Bad news for Calvin-Messiah game as lightning delays have halted game. Not sure lights are on the field, and Football game is also delayed , so field with lights unavailable. Not sure what the contingency is.

Congrats to the Bombers on the Jug win. Union is up two scores, but Bombers win is big for LL, and still might help the NPI rating enough. Even if you don't get in NCAA, it was a great ending to the season.

Congrats to Messiah on the OT win today. You broke the Statesmen's hearts ,but frankly looked like the better team from the opening of the second half. No dishonor in losing to any Messiah team, but it still hurts after a "no loss" regular season.

A disappointing game result, but Messiah had some very skilled and well conditioned athletes. Good luck to them in the tournament. We lose about six Seniors that will be hard to replace, but I'm sure the coaching staff has some new talent coming in. On to Hockey for tonight to see the 3 time D3 champs take on Skidmore
