West Liberty Hilltopper Basketball

Funny how the IUP faithful let their true feeling be known when a fellow Regional team has a chance to win the NC before IUP does.

You can blame your boy Layton. Now he eats crow!

Butler was tough as nails. Played his a$$ off. He has always been a player. West Liberty had a heck of a season.

But that flagrant 2 and the two technicals came back to haunt them at the end. I don't agree with them calling the one Flagrant 1.

Hats off to Crutchfield. Guy is just at another level in Division 2. He has been since he took over in year 1 at West Liberty.

Funny thing, WL was never out of that game but certain individuals couldn’t handle the pressure. Bryce Butler is a class act!

For what? We just played for a natty

Thanks for showing up Hilltoppers!

You guys still got athletics down there?

While I enjoy West Liberty basketball and go to games every year they’re on my 4th tier of sports fandom so you won’t get under my skin

Correct. And one of the best, if not the best, D2 national championship to watch. They were in at till the end going against an undefeated team and against one of the best small college coaches of all time.

Drive home safely

Drive home safely

Didn’t go, knew at 2 am we were losing so I canceled

Also the weather has sucked all day

[Layton]

I was done as soon as Sarson made it about himself. I don’t waste my time with chicken **** stuff like that. Now the long wait until football season (except WL). Year 5 of boycotting them until they fire Walleye

Said yesterday you were driving back with the trophy.

Does Crutch ride off into the sunset now?

[PSACwatcher]

No way Crutch retires. He’s got the best gig going.

Does Crutch ride off into the sunset now?

No chance. Poach some more and keep rolling.

I believe both IUP and West Liberty got two shots at it and are now 0-4. Top to bottom I think the Atlantic is the best region in the country. For whatever reason, there always seems to be “that team” the region can’t get by. It’s too bad for the true regional format. There were years that IUP and WL could have made the Final 4. This year was probably one of them too. Unfortunately only one gets to go.
