For your viewing convenience… New England. Summary. Singles: Amherst is winning. Doubles: Williams is winning. Cue Bates fans, “What about us?” Northeast. This website is really hard to read, but man, that singles draw couldn’t have gone more to form. And that doubles draw really couldn’t have not done that in any way at all.…
Singles 1. Adam Putterman was an absolute beast this weekend on the singles court. Winning the tournament without dropping a set? That’s incredibly impressive, especially when you consider that every single opponent he faced from the Round of 16 on was very good. Though his team underperformed compared to Kenyon, this is his second year…
I don’t really have a whole lot of time right now, so I’m just going to go with the easier of the two wrapups. Since this is essentially Whitman’s regional, they’re the only team that I have to talk about. Singles Things went about as you would have expected them to go for Whitman for…
Putterman vs. Burgin in single final tomorrow in central. Predictable. Heerboth/Turlington vs. Bartashevich/Ventura-Creusse (Earlham). Anyone have that one? singles draw doubles draw La Cava upset by Malesovas (who?) in Northwest. No Tolman for Whitman, but transfer Riggs doing well. Semifinals tomorrow. La Cava/Rivers vs. Tesmond/Riggs in final. singles draw doubles draw
This is an exciting moment. After this post, I will no longer only be posting about things that might happen in the future. I will be able to start analyzing things that actually happened, and we can all point and laugh at the futility of my doubles predictions. Anyways, welcome to the West region. If…
Can we please just be honest about what regional this is!!?? This is the Texas regional just like the “West” regional is the California regional!!!!! I hate to get that emotional this early in a post, but I just had to get that off my chest… or my fingertips if you’re a stickler for semantics.…
This region is basically the embodiment of the word “mediocre.” The region is far deeper than either the Texas or Northwest regions. As in, the best players from the “second tier” teams in the region have a reasonable chance of beating the lower players on Gustavus and Whitewater’s rosters, but at least with the NW…
There are two reasons to get excited for this tournament. One, after three years of the Goodwin/Pottish two-headed monster, the position of top Eagle is up for grabs, and they have 6 or 7 guys capable of taking it. Two, Coach Modise left NCW, and most of his best players left with him. What will…
Last year, this tournament was like the Hopkins’ freshman class’ coming out party. Most everyone in the DIII community was pretty curious what 6 4-stars would do when they were unleashed on the DIII community. Unfortunately, Hopkins couldn’t get all of them into the draw, but those that got in made an impact. Joachim won…
The fact that the regional tournaments get split up the way that they do is absolutely ridiculous. New England region: totally brutal. Northeast region: one of the worst in the country. How does that happen? Basically all of the teams in both regions are within driving distance of each other. But I live in a…
