Ferris takes on another in-state D-1 rival tonight, at CMU, where Hope's new big man was enrolled last year.

Maybe they can steal one in Mount Pleasant.

They came close, falling 65-60 and contesting hard in the second half after CMU built an early 16-point lead right after halftime.

Ferrris got within 61-59 with 26 ticks left before the Chips salted the game away at the free throw line.

Calvin volleyball loses to Wittenberg.  Men and women cross country teams win regional and move on to nationals. Men's soccer wins 4-0.

Sounds like they were pretty close to getting away with larceny at CMU

Hope mens soccer also in the sweet 16.  Nice showing by the MIAA so far.

Interesting thing the Men’s soccer committee did, they put Calvin and Hope on opposite sides of the bracket. Could you imagine a Calvin-Hope National Championship game (in any sport)?

Also, Calvin's sectional contains a team from MI, CA, VA, and TX. Would that ever happen in men's basketball?

Looks like the Calvin men are headed to Redlands, CA.  And Hope's men are headed to Ohio Wesleyan.

That part of the bracket has been dubbed the "Transcontinental Quadrant" on d3soccer: http://www.d3soccer.com/ncaatournament/2011/men/2011-mens-bracket

With perennial power and #1 ranked Messiah getting the boot in the first round, anything is possible in men's soccer this year!

Hope's advancement in the soccer tournament means they will be 2 more players short for at least this week  (Rochester, Spring Arbor).  Both Logan and Grant Neil are on the soccer team.   Logan was the league MVP for the 2nd straight year.

I'm not sure if the injured players will be available this week or not  (Ray, Overway).  Could be a small roster for the Dutchmen this week.

Massey predicts several close games tomorrow:

Northwestern Ohio over Adrian by 1
Northwestern is 2-2, including a loss at DI Toledo.

Defiance over Kalamazoo by 1
Defiance returns all 5 starters.

Anderson, IN over Calvin by 4
Anderson returns 3 starters.

Olivet over Aquinas by 2
Aquinas and Olivet both have very different looking teams.

Hope over Rochester, MI by 8
Rochester is 8-0 against small Canadian colleges (for the most part).

Lake Superior State over Alma by 23
LSS is a DII program, currently 3-0. They beat Grace Bible 90-68.

Tomorrow's results will give us some indication of who's up and who's down this year.
