PSAC WEST

[IUPbigINDIANS]

So I'm assuming thr 3&5 starts yesterday were due to travel. I'm sure PSAC never considered most people work until 5. So instead of doing 3&5 and then 1&3.. why couldn't they have done 530&730 both Friday and Saturday?

Hard to figure because when East comes West they are playing many night games.

As for attendance, this league could amazingly give two blanks.

Did you watch the last two minutes? The referee called a screening foul on a handoff (that should’ve been a foul on ESU if anything) that cancelled out a Planutis 3. Hurst would’ve been up 6 with 2 minutes to go. That kept it at 3. Then, the same referee called a phantom rebounding foul on an ESU miss that resulted in the game winning free throws with 1 second left.

Hurst got picked at halfcourt with 1:15 or so and gave up a wide open 3 after they went up 3 with 40 seconds, so they had plenty of chances to take the referees out of it. But, you shouldn’t be refereeing scholarship level college basketball games if those are the calls you make in a one possession game. Egregiously bad.

As a Gannon fan since I was very young and a Gannon graduate, I have a whole 'nother level of hatred for the Hurst. That said... I agree that Hurst suffered from some terrible calls and no calls in the waning moments of that game. To me ESU was definitely the better team, but Hurst hung with them tough. It was a little disheartening to see them lose with some help of the "neutrals".

Clearly a moving screen on that play. Said so on the call...

The ESU play by play guy? Lol. I’d stick to football if I were you. A handoff where the defender falls into the offensive player because he tried going under the handoff isn’t a moving screen.

Explain how Hurst got cheated, and don't bring up Reichert. My stats and ESU's live stats had 4 fouls on Reichert when the 5th whistle was blown. ESU fought just as hard as Mercyhurst did, and to say Mercyhurst got cheated doesn't do justice to the great play of both teams.

West is stronger from what I saw today. Good win for IUP. Good production from the guards.

Mercyhurst got cheated at ESU, but doesn’t surprise me based on some of the hack jobs refereeing in this league.

not a great day for PSAC West so far, with the exception of Boro over Kutz...

I hope so, since they're on Ship's schedule on the December western swing.

Ike Herster is a ticking time bomb!

I considered that, too. I just ended up putting Seton Hill at the bottom of that mix. I've watched a few Rock games now and I think it could end up being a long season for them. They have a load of talent, HOWEVER, they look just like Gannon did the past few years ... very individual-based and lazy. I'm not saying I think they'll get run over - but, as of now, I don't see them having what it takes to pull out the close victories.

I think Gannon, Seton Hill, and Slippery Rock might all be better than UPJ. UPJ had a good deal of trouble putting away Frostburg, which is not a very good squad this season. Of course we'll see before long.

I loved Dixon
... Rght up until the day the Golden Panthers thought he hit his peak. Remember that group called all the shots back then behind the scenes.

He didn’t “peak.” But it was pretty well documented that he did not want Pitt to move to the ACC. The move didn’t sit well with him and his coaching style didn’t necessarily work well initially in that league. Him losing the NYC recruiting pool hurt him too.
