NCAA College Hoops

Tonight, in the Draddy Gymnasium, the Jaspers host the first place Fairfield Stags.  Fairfield escaped their home game with Manhattan with a 61-59 win.

Tonight, the Jaspers are looking for payback - and to knock off a solid team (18-5 overall) with their losses coming to Rutgers, Penn St., St. Joe's, Loyola (MD), and Rider.  They were supposed to travel to Florida in late December but the Post-Christmas Storm cancelled that trip.

The MAAC has a full slate tonight.  This one features the 11-2 Stags and the 2-11 Jaspers.  There's a whiteout here in the Draddy - they're handing out white t-shirts to whatever students decide to show up.  Free t-shirts typically bring out students in droves.

Whiteout City!!!

Honestly I'd like to find their game sometime on the net or cable TV. They were showing highlights of the Jaspers 2 weeks ago (ESPN) when they beat someone on the road at the buzzer, plus they did a feature on the young man who is missing a hand. He does plays for Manhattan, correct? Seems like a great kid...
I love college BBall, all levels. I used to live in Holland MI and one of the better D-3 college BBall programs is Hope College, they had incredible talent on their teams, both Men and Womans. Both teams play regularly in the D3 Final 4. Awesome to be in that field-house, you can hardly tell in small school ball...
