Rivalries Galore! – CMU/Case/Kenyon Weekend

It’s been a slow week in terms of matches, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have a big weekend ahead.  There are plenty of marquee matchups this weekend, especially in the NE.  My region will not be overlooked, however, as we have two huge matches for Carnegie Mellon, who happens to be one of the…

D3Tennis Mid-Season Grades

ASouth here – We’ve decided to bring the one they call “The Guru” back for an article about all the top 20 teams and some grades on what they’ve done this year. For those of you who don’t know who “The Guru” is, he was the originator of the blog maybe 7 years ago (maybe…

#PoolCWeek – A Historical Look

It’s time for a history lesson!! As you see in the POTW article, mid-March is not only the time for March Madness (although the Madness is over for me) but also time for me to start writing crazy articles like Pool C and Bracketology.  I personally love both of those things especially because I only…

3/31 Power Rankings (M)

I’m tired of the old “Up on a Tuesday” cliche, so I’m just going to say this.  Power Rankings are now out, because it is a Tuesday. Fun fact: the bloggers were actually thinking about doing an April Fool’s Power Rankings for you guys, because for some reason D3West is obsessed with April Fools.  I…

Gustavus in California

Hey there tennis fans. I wanted to get a quick post out before Gustavus plays their first match out in California against three very good teams. On what I thought would be a relatively down year for the Gusties, they have proven they can compete with just about anyone. At Indoors, even though they placed…

Coach Bizot on the NCAA and Pool C

Happy Sunday, boys and girls! We at The Blog have strong feelings concerning the decrease of Pool-C teams for this year’s NCAA tournament. In order to help shed a little light on the situation, we have brought in an NCAA expert in every sense of the word. Chris Bizot is the head coach of the men’s…

Proposing a NEW Match Format – The “5+2” feat. Coach Settles

This past weekend, there were a couple of matches that featured the best team in the country in DIII and went way under the radar.  Now, the reason I’m talking to you about these matches is NOT because the best team in the country (CMS, by the way, if you have no idea what is…

3/24 Power Rankings (M)

What’s up, folks! It’s been exactly a week since our last edition of Power Rankings… which means that it’s time for some more Power Rankings! Repetitive, right?  Anyways, we’ve had some good discussion on Rankings in general the past few times out and some more people are joining in on the party.  Thanks to all…

This week in the Central: March 23rd-29th

Well in the spirit of plagiarism, I decided to steal West’s format for my article this week. There are many things to focus on in what has been a lull in the Central region action. That isn’t all that true, I just haven’t been covering the matches between teams that may or may not bore…
