I was there, too. I was really looking forward to two good games with four teams that were all capable of winning the tournament. Miami spoiled that when they got pasted by OU in the second game. Then their coach left for Marquette and they fell off dramatically.

I thought a bit about going up on Friday but am not particularly keen on the 10 am start. I have enjoyed the Buffalo and CMU runs in recent years.

I think Dawson has played pretty well considering the lack of support for most of the season. She also was basically moved to point guard midseason because of lack of impact from the other point guards. She does try to do too much at times and it gets her into trouble which can be frustrating to watch. Hopefully now with others developing and some coaching she will cut back on her bad plays and take advantage of the others around her. She's an excellent passer and can improve others' games.

Nice to see you other guys picking up the slack with posts. 😉 Hopefully the recent wins are a sign of better things to come.

Another fine story by GT, especially the opening sentence. Too bad the game was on Friday, not Saturday. 🙄

Terrible by Maishe there

It would be an even better article if there was actually a doubleheader today. As Bugs Bunny would say "what a maroon." 🙄

Miami starts fast in the first half at Toledo and holds on to upset the Rockets 62-60. Look out Zips.

You should have seen the Zips women in dark grey vs Toledo in their navy blues last Saturday. ? Even got a mention on Twitter.

The gold numbers are more readable than many. I don't think many teams including the NBA pay much attention to readability these days.

Throwback to when?

78-132, 26-94 in 7 yrs. Had enough time. Tough place to win anyway.

Ugh. Zips lose at home 75-62 to previously 8-9 (4-8 MAC), Toledo - losers of 5 in a row. This was the kind of game you just can't lose if you are going to make a move to improve and finish the season on an upswing. The Zips even led by 1 at the half with Dawson on the bench most of the time in foul trouble. Toledo won the 3Q 26-13 to take over the game. The Zips next game as of now is not for 11 days. Hopefully they can find some answers. Next game is at last place Miami who has threatened to upset Can't, CMU and Ball State the last 3 games.

Zips women fall at Kalamazoo 74-66 in a Wednesday afternoon matinee game (why?). Zips had 25 turnovers vs 20 for WMU. If you have any intention of watching the replay, don't expect to see the final minute or so. The feed inexplicably switched to an overhead view of the Wofford men in early warmups. ? Not that the outcome was really in doubt.

Let's not ask for too much now. For the second week in a row they actually have a story in Saturday's paper about a Friday night game. ?

What are the chances there will even be an NIT? Do they have a plan?

On the schedule listing they should put an asterisk next to the name of the team having COVID issues. ?

C'mon, we wouldn't want to interrupt Dakich's stories would we? ?

Sorry, make that 21-12 3Q. My bad. Still good.

On a Saturday when coincidentally all bottom three MAC women's teams threatened upsets, only the Zips hold on pull out an 89-84 win in OT at Muncie. Key was a 29-12 3Q to take the lead. ?

With all the comings and goings and not really seeing the bench on tv, I'd pretty much forgotten about him. Good for him. He showed some loyalty still coming here after KD left.

Maishe averaged 3.5 ppg in 3 years at Iowa. Not sure what indicated he'd be a star in the MAC, especially after sitting out a year.
