Yes. there's a viewing party in Davie at the Hoops Sports Bar and Grill. It's west of Fort Lauderdale. If you are in the central part of the city, take I-595 west to University Drive. Then at the exit turn south. Drive a couple miles until you see Griffin Road. I think it might be on the west side of University. I've never been there, so I don't know for sure. Good luck.

I hope Hooley can't attend because he'll still be playing basketball for UA.

I honestly don't know which MAAC teams got post-season games. Do tonight's performances mean there are no more MAAC survivors?

It's really an insult to take UA out of the city that is hosting a women's round to put in the backyard of the third seed.

So what kind of seed do you think the women will draw this year?

According to the Times Union, eighteen number 14 seeds have beaten their first-round opponents since the NCAA went to the 64- or more-team format in 1985. By my way of thinking, that's almost two teams every three years. http://blog.timesunion.com/collegesports/can-ualbany-basketball-win-friday-these-no-14-seeds-did/20213/ Is it our time on Friday?

Thanks for the info, gentlemen!

Wow! I didn't even know that Singletary had fouled out. How much time was left in the game when that happened? I was aware that SBU had several players in foul trouble and was hoping one or more of them would have to leave before the end of regulation. Things worked out!

Yahoo has a story on the Oklahoma team right now. Here's the link: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaab-the-dagger/bracket-flames--boomer-sooner--oklahoma-one-of-six-tourney-sleepers-222451741.html Basically, the story cites the coach's strengths and how they translate into a team-building process. It also says that the Sooners could go very deeply into the tournament. Interestingly enough, UAlbany isn't mentioned at all in the article.

I am thinking I might create a contest to see who can design the best "LCC" emoji. For a prize I can have one of the MAAC referees come to the winner's home or job to give them a technical foul. That kind of emoji would fit Patsis to a "T."

Bob, Where are you?

I think they actually got a 12 seed.

They refuse to play us...they think they are to good to give an ae team a game. True story. In my opinion, maybe the people making the decisions might be thinking we would beat them. The last few years we played them the competition was fairly tight. In one game, the outcome was decided only after four overtimes.

If you were reading the same news source as I, the article also mentioned that the opponent had a strategy of hacking Cremo at almost every opportunity. He still made his points, many of them at the charity stripe. Sounds like a tough guy.

It was absolutely deafening...unlike anything I've ever heard... Great!! And today was without many students. Let's hear it for old people!

According to Inside Lacrosse, UA prevails against SBU 17-15. Great weekend to be a Great Dane!

UA up by four goals against SBU this afternoon in the third. After my record with the men's basketball team earlier today, I'm not making any predictions. Let's go for the sweep!

Wow!!! I turned off the TV in disgust. My wonderful wife then told me it was a 3-point game with a minute left.

Congrats, Stony Brook. You didn't choke this time.

Anyone know what the attendance was like at the women's game this afternoon? Were many students present?

UA increased lead again after 45-41 score to 55-44

My wife agrees. She said both Hartford injuries looked very painful. By the way, she was watching the game at the gym in Southeast Florida. Nice exposure for UA!

Any more news on extending the departure date out of the dorms this weekend?

Dane96, You were correct again. The Times Union reported the attendance at 4,122. It also reported that the Danes were led by Hooley's 21 points, followed by Singletary's 18.

With a little left In the first half, UA is ahead of UMBC in the women's game 35-8.
