More of an inside joke ... the West for years and years was famous for having games played in the 50s.

Great lineup of games tonight. Several I'd love to watch. Unfortunately, they all start at the same time.
Seton Hill (0-5) at East Stroudsburg (0-3) - Something has to give here. The Griffins were playing competitive basketball prior to getting walloped by Salem in their last outing. ESU's press should make the difference. Seton Hill isn't deep at guard. Warriors by double digits.
Gannon (3-1) at Shepherd (4-1) - Rams are 2 points away from being undefeated. Gannon is tough, although banged up. With a few key players' statuses up in the air ... call this one a PICK 'EM
UPJ (4-2) at West Chester (5-0) - The Rams come in undefeated, but UPJ will be by far their biggest test of the season. The Mountain Cats have been in a few tussles already this year. It's tough to win at WCU, but UPJ is more battle-tested at this point. It will be tight, but UPJ pulls it out. Mountain Cats by 3.
Mercyhurst (5-0) at Shippensburg (2-2) - The Lakers are cruising -- and punishing teams. The most points Mercyhurst has given up so far this year is just 63. They've also played a couple (D3) cupcakes. Tonight will be an opponent who can hit back. If Jake Biss plays, it will be a huge boost. Without him, not sure the Raiders have enough to keep up for 40 minutes. The Lakers should leave town with a win. Tough to project a margin with player unknowns (Biss).
Clarion (4-1) at Millersville (5-0) - The Golden Eagles have ravaged two D3 teams. They've also beat two pretty bad D2 teams. Against their only legit opponent (Lake Erie) they got blown out. So, logic says tonight probably won't be a good night. Clarion has some nice players, but not nearly enough to stay in this game. Marauders turn this in to a tune-up for UPJ's visit tomorrow. Millersville by 15+
Slippery Rock (3-2) at Mansfield (1-5) - The Rock seems to be better than many thought. Single digit losses to Notre Dame (OH) and Charleston and a win over East Stroudsburg have shown they are legit. Mansfield is off to a lethargic 1-5 start. Things will get worse for the Mounties tonight. SRU wins by double digits.
Edinboro (2-2) at Lock Haven (3-0) - Interesting game here. The Bald Eagles enter tonight 3-0, but the Fighting Scots will be their biggest test to date. Tough one to pick. Edinboro has not looked good in its two losses. Lock Haven by 1.
IUP (5-0) at Kutztown (2-3) - The Golden Bears enter with a disappointing -- and very odd -- 2-3 record. The roster is talented and deep. Sooner or later, things will click. IUP is hoping that 'click' just isn't tonight. Tough place to play, but IUP will be favored until they are knocked off. Crimson Hawks get the W, but it will be closer than many think. IUP by single digits.
California (4-1) at Bloomsburg (1-3) - This is likely the mismatch of the night. The Huskies defense hasn't looked too hot. That's a bad recipe for playing this run-n-gun Vulcan team. Cal by 15+

Simpson got T'd with 3 minutes to go after essentially dragging a guy down to the floor after they trapped him.
End of OT, Boro trey to tie misses and clock expires. Kid from LH (who avoided an obvious tech at end of regulation for slamming the ball) gets up in Simpson's face and claps 5-6 times inches from his nose. Simpson pushed him. Then got pushed. Then the officials and coaches stepped in. Cleary was fired up and neither team shook hands.
Quite the ending.
LH is 4-0 but neither team is too hot. Mercyhurst will smoke them today.
LH had a large student group sit right under the basket. They rode Simpson hard. As we've seen, he can bring some of it on.
Interesting item was the LH broadcast has no announcers. I actually liked it better.
And, of course, they at least have a video. Which, naturally, is better than the only school in the league without one.
