How about them Beloit College Buccanneers!!!

[Thedatch]

You may not care, but I do. Two div. 3 schools played on ESPN 2 yesterday: Beloit College and Grinnell University. Grinnell is known for its crazy gameplan (they only shoot threes, and play defense only on the oposing team's courts...)

and Beloit, who wasnt even supposed to compete in this game, won by one point.


yay school spirit :)

I watched the second half, but didnt really understand their plan.

So they just allow the other team to hit buckets the entire game, hoping that their own 3-point shooting will carry them?

i saw somethin on ESPN about it, how one of the teams only plays their guys for 30-55 seconds at a time so everyone ends up playin a bunch and therefore they have to recruit a balanced team, not just one standout.

yeah, thats Grinnell...they have the weirdest gameplan I have ever seen. I mean...I don't watch a lot of Basketball, but i know that is just weird ass.

and vince, yeah thats pretty much what they do :) it kind works for them too...then again they are div. 3...:D
