One thing I didnt like was Cains pointing to the crowd early in the game when he made a 3, I didnt see him pointing when he missed.  Coleman was hamming it up also.  They dont really need to act like jackasses, their very good players,maybe they got a little to cocky.  One other thing thats not mentioned about Cain, he is a excellent defensive player

Sowers was outstanding and Blum helped out with some excellent 2nd half offense - CG size was the difference

there are way more than those 2 guys, guys playing there heart out for the love of the game,  Wheatons  DiGiovanna  playing on the bad knee, giving it all he had for a D3 game.  Prebeck is an outstanding player and they might not be able to beat WPI tomorrow but CG size can give WPI trouble, if any team can beat WPI Cg may be the team.  Plus where else can you watch 2 good games  a soda and piece of pizza for $8.

This could only happen at a D3 game - WPI vs. MIT - watching the game,  2 kids from WPI sit down next to me and one kid takes out a laptop computer and goes on the web while the game is going.  He is googleing heat retention for a steam turbine engine,  and looking at the diagram?? They left at half time.
Other than that,  watching the game was like watching teams in different speeds,  MIT came out and didn't do much, MIT coach look bewildered, on the first play which MIT threw away he buried his head in his hands, called 5 timeouts in the first half, and granted I know he has a short bench but left Bracht in with 3 fouls in the first half and of course Bracht gets his 4th after he runs over Cain trying to lead the fast break with 4 minutes to go in the first half.   A blow out. 

Having seen Bartolotta   and Cain play numerous times this year (not against each other 1st time today) its obvious Bartolotta and Cain are excellent players.  Cain has a much better team, but watching today's game you can see stats are for losers.  Bartolotta needed to step up, instead he misses 3 out 4 foul shots in the first half when MIT couldn't score and needed to stay in the game.  Cain is a leader and you cant stat that.   You probably to young to remember but Wilt had the stats and Russell has the rings.

I think Babson will run away with second place in the NEWMAC.  As far as having a chance to beat WPI, I can't really see WPI losing a game the rest of the season.  They are playing really well and they are a very well balanced team.  They have a very solid inside outside game going and they are on a long winning streak.  WPI could and should go undefeated for the first time in NEWMAC history which is really a big accomplishment but they are just a step above every other team in the league at the moment. 

AT BABSON

Springfield 64
Babson 58

I dont think Babson will make any kind of Run .  WPI is a entire step above everyone - they are a excelllent defensive team

Springfield finally got a big win  beating trinty, they have a few new freshman getting there legs under them and Brock is doing his usual thing of playing everybody early. Look for them to get better and make a few surprises during the season

WPI loses again?

whats up with WPi - did any one see that game - ya think CG can make a run during the tourney-   I think so - watch out for Springfield

Babson beat Coast guard!

Yvon starts as a 3b on the baseball team
