Elmira is 1 - 2 lifetime against Norwich, the last victory (5-4) coming in 1976 when the Cadets were part of the, you guessed it, ECAC/West

1-7 was the 03/04 T/A tourney. In 04/05 I made the trip during which EC lost in OT 3-4. Lake Fornax was the Western participant.

My wife's birthday is this weekend. Hmmmm .... completely destroy my marriage, and forego $** for the next two years, or attend a musical and smile alot? Unfortunately ... no trip for me :=[ (Darn compromises)

Will this game sell out? and are tickets available ahead of time?

Re: NCAA Quarterfinal: Elmira @ Norwich Saturday 3/13

standing room tickets are on sale on line, some seats may be available at the ticket booth, depending on how many Elmira fans make the trip. Our students are on break so we should be fine. I would get there early and get in line.

the game will be video streamed live by NSN at no charge compliments of Norwich University.

Elmira's win over Oswego and tie with Plattsburgh are very impressive. I consider these teams in the top 4 or 5 in the east. It is a long season and they did stumble a little toward the end but there overall record is very impressive. Darcy Vallencort, Rusty Masters, and Kevin Willer all have excellent stats. Norwich may be a slight favorite for the game but in these one game series anything can happen. I am also concerned how Elmira blitzed Curry in the first period of play last night. Elmira will be a very difficult game for Norwich.

Of all the quarterfinal games I thought Norwich has the toughest game after Plattsburgh/Middlebury which is a toss up in my book. I haven't seen Elmira play having only read what others have observed. The only thing I will predict is there will be a whole lot more people at this game then at the Curry game. If Elmira is anthing like the ECAC East teams the large crowd will get them more up for the game.

Agreed..

While Elmira was ranked lower than Bowdoin, which is the reason Norwich drew Elmira/Curry and Oswego drew Bowdoin, I'd much rather see Bowdoin invade the Campus Center at Oswego than Elmira.

No disrespect intended for Bowdoin...

Elmira usually averages 1500 or so and can get to the 2000's or near it for bigger games.

Wednesday night was a tough draw against a no name team like Curry. Granted it was an NCAA game but people still A. probably didn't know about it since Elmira lost to Manhattanville B. It wasn't a recognizable team. C. It was a weekday game.

Still elbo reported 1100 being there...I guesstimated 800ish from the webcast. It was a pretty loud crowd so Elmira is definitely used to playing in front of large crowds.

Norwich has won the last two games in this series. They were expected to play each other last year but EC lost to Gustavus in the first round of the Times Argus.

That was one of the worst games I watched in the 4 years that Albert was there.

I remember being at the Plattsburgh game, which was a 4pm game. Paid attendance, per collegehockeystats, was 1006... but I estimated that crowd to be 600 max.

It's all in the scheduling of the games. If it's consistent with the normal scheduling, people will show up. Anomalies like a Saturday afternoon or a weekday, not so much. I remember seeing people pulling into the Domes as we were leaving, as if they were there for a 7pm game.
