Not sure what to tell you but you can rewatch the game & see for yourself or go to Drew's b-ball website & read about it.
There were times in the first half that Drew was up by 12.
The difference maker (in hindsight), in my opinion, was letting E-town bring the ball up with 10 seconds in the 2nd. quarter with no pressure on the ball & E-town drained an open 3 at the buzzer.

Not sure where your info is coming from.
Both teams played Wednesday evening as scheduled.
E-town escaped the forest with a 60/59 win.
Coach O had his kids ready.

All wins are beautiful...even the ugly ones.  ;D

There's a great meme from Dumb & Dumber when Jim Carrey is getting shot down by Lauren Holly...
"You mean there's a chance"???  ;D

Ronk,
That would be Dr. Will Renkin you'd be referring to.
And, he was both AD & men's b-ball coach at Albright.
One chilly night in March 1976 the Rock & Roll Royals owned the Bollman Center & Reading, Pa.  ;)

Agree re. the Drew job.
I questioned the move last year when it was announced.
Not like Ithaca is chopped liver but Drew is smack dab right between Philly & NYC talent with a ton of home grown Jersey kids, a nice little campus & a recent history of winning under Kleckler right through to Ryan.

As for the Royals...fade to black.

Up or down?  ;D

It most certainly would be a big help.
Can they do it?
Massey says Drew by 4.
Will it be a big win on the road or another repeat of Wilkes?
#9

Of course there are multiple ways the last games can go...not arguing that point.
Just saying the rubber is about to meet the road in these final games.
Do they step up or step out of the way?
I would not trust an at large berth to a single win venture in the Landmark playoffs.
Body of work against really solid teams just isn't there.

If the Royals lose again to Drew tomorrow, their blip may be off the radar screen for another 8 years.
Contender or pretender??

Absolutely.
Thanks.

Not that I've done a deep dive into this topic, but I'm surprised Scranton isn't listed as both a pretty young team with an incredible winning % of 94.4 (101-6) over past 3.5 years.

They carry:
*3 Seniors
*4 Juniors
*5 Soph's
*5 First Years

Quote from: deiscanton on January 21, 2026, 11:37:25 AMI will be watching this weekend's action on FloCollege-- I may watch the NYU at WashU game live on the bedroom Roku TV, and put the Brandeis women at UChicago on the computer. 

Understood.
Sometimes I've got a few games going & a few on pause to get back to later.  ;)

Not sure anyone will slow down NYU during the regular season...maybe even beyond.
However, if there's a chance for someone to knock them off, it would probably be at Wash U.

You'll have the whole Goucher gym to yourself at 3:00.  ;D

Wow...
Other than all that, how did you enjoy the play Mrs. Lincoln?  ;)

Great comeback for Rochester but certainly appears Brandeis grabbed defeat from the jaws of victory.
