Williams helped by lack of self-discipline on part of RIT's offense...I wouldn't want to be near Coon if they lose...

Williams for the victory in 2OT...great effort by both teams, although neither coach can be happy with the number of turnovers. RIT kept giving Williams opportunities to stay in the game and the Ephs hung tough. Tigers lacked the crisp passing and timely picking of previous Coon teams.

5-3 Sal leading Denison with 5:00 left in first...if Sal goes up by five or more, don't think Big Red have the horses to keep up.

Smashmouth game between York and Cabrini...2-1 spartans entering 2nd

From a NESCACer, it is Eefs, not Effs, he is saying it right. Tremendous win for Williams and the league, I don’t care who played sloppy. RIT is always a fantastic team that is just about as good or just a bit better than the top (usually) 2-3 NESCAC teams (this year 4-5). They could beat any of them but they are always so hyped as being such a favorite because they don’t have the top of league quality to have to contend with and thus always role in, virtually always at home, as the favorite when they should not be.

I think there is no way Williams beats Amherst 3x, early call of Jeffs 14-11

Nice comment. Timely too.
Reflects well on Williams, and all of NESCAC.

I stand corrected. Doesn't make sense as it's named after a gentleman named Ephraim but... I stand corrected.

As for your Part II, nonsense. Union lost 12-11 to Williams by 1 and beat Middlebury by 4. St. Lawrence beat Middlebury by 6 and Bowdoin by 8. The Liberty League is plenty competitive.

Middlebury and Bowdoin were 7th and 9th in the NESCAC.

Credit to Cabrini. They battled back from a big hole at half time and kept pouring it on. Their Coach did a great job and good for those young men to crack the final four...

Well-deserved wins by Ephs and Cavs. Both games reinforced that notion that Yogi Berra was indeed a genius ("It ain't over 'til it's over.").


Who's kicking themselves harder right now, RIT or York?


Seagulls looked awfully good against Denison.

D3 MEN: As expected, Salisbury beat Denision and, not as expected... Williams beat RIT, Cabrini beat York, and Amherst beat Tufts... and the Computer Rankings have been updated. And before people freak out, the rankings are based on each team's body of work this season.
