The 2013 Tournament Speculation Thread

Please someone explain why Oswego was ranked higher in all polls and they travel to Adrian? I do not know what the rink size is at Adrian, but we would have sold out tomorrow with 3000 plus.

Either the west made Adrian their 2, or Adrian wins the comparison with Oswego, but we'll never really know.

Re: The 2013 Tournament Speculation Thread

Ok hammer I couldn't t more the way all this is put together. The NCAA rankings had Oswego ranked third in the east. Where was Adrian ranked in the west?

3rd, according to the last rankings. But who knows what happened this week...
 
Sad that we won't get one more game out of WTOP. But OSUPBPMike does a phenomenal job. Does Adrian have live video for their home games?

Adrian has live video. I give it an average to a slightly above average grade. Be ready for commercials to cut in (sometimes at really bad times).
 
Re: The 2013 Tournament Speculation Thread

Either the west made Adrian their 2, or the east threw the west a bone for being in 2 play-in games. I guess there's also the possibility that Adrian wins te comparison with Oswego, but we'll never really know.

Or the East took another look at things and dropped Oswego to #4. *shrug*

I got nothing here, boys.

I think we do. But I make no assurances as to the quality of the feed.
But, IIRC, the feed is picture only. You will have to synch WNYO with the video and watch out for the UStream commercials every 20 mins or so. The game then picks up where it left off.

I don't think that will be an issue for me. :)

FYI ... 500 seats
 
Re: The 2013 Tournament Speculation Thread

This past weds the last NCAA rankings came out and Adrian was ranked 3rd. What changed over the weekend that would move them to 2nd?also this is a frustrated fan that even if we could get to Adrian, we probably would not be able to get tickets. We understand they have a small rink
 
Re: The 2013 Tournament Speculation Thread

With the field set, its time for .....Lake Placid speculation!

My early guess:
Norwich, Oswego, Bowdoin and UWEC.

That's a good question....are the host venues req'd to have tickets available for visiting fans? I'm not looking for me, I'm saving my shekels for Lake Placid if Oswego makes it, but just curious in any event.

A percentage of tickets must be reserved for the away team. Contact Oswego to find out how they will be distributed.
 
Re: The 2013 Tournament Speculation Thread

One thing is for sure. If Norwich should make it to the finals they will not have to go thru St Norbert. The last two years St Norbert has beaten Norwich in the semi's. :(The biggest problem for Norwich in the near future will be trying to figure out how to beat Babson and get the puck by Testa.:eek:
 
Re: The 2013 Tournament Speculation Thread

Per NCAA: For first and quarterfinal rounds of the Division III championship, the visiting team will be permitted to purchase a minimum of 200 tickets or 15 percent of the official capacity (whichever is greater) for each session. The Division III Men’s Ice Hockey Committee reserves the right to adjust the number of tickets and location allocated to each team.
