Boy, East Texas Baptist is not only breaking Northwestern's Cinderella slipper, it's grinding it into a fine powder.

With sixteen minutes left, ETBU is up by a 53-29 score.

Trinity pulling away. 65-52, 3:38 to go.

36-29 St. Olaf over Marietta at halftime.

I didn't want to say anything, but I did not think that Northwestern had the athletes to run with the ETBU/ASC style of play. Unless ETBU completely lays an egg for the last 9 minutes of the game, this one is over.

64-40 with 8:00 left

It's what typically happens to a Cinderella that makes it out of the first weekend. The sectionals are a very unforgiving place to be if you've been getting by thus far on a wing and a prayer.

So, I feel safe saying I know more about d3 basketball than 99.99% of people on earth - yet in the first four games tonight, I picked exactly one correctly.

St. John Fisher 57

Very exciting finish!

Anyone that thought Augie had a tough time last weekend! Babson woof, and Trinity will put them in the defensive grinder again tomorrow. First to 50 might win both games
