ASouth: Here I am with another famous introduction for an article. I get to cover my favorite team in the world, the Emory Eagles. I also get to cover another one of my favorite teams in the world, the Kenyon Lords. Regional bias be damned. These two teams have a long history with each other…
NCAA Quarterfinal Preview: #6 Wash U vs #3 Middlebury D3NE: I continually underestimate Wash U. D3Central continually underestimates Wash U. Almost everybody in the world underestimates Wash U except for The Guru, Coach Follmer, and probably D3Dad. They have had one of the more remarkable in-season turnarounds in program history, and have made yet another…
I give the people what they want. While we are all gearing up for the Elite 8 Matches and sending out preview after preview, I wanted to take a look back at all the different things that happened in the NCAA Regional this past weekend. About 50 teams participated this weekend, so it would make…
NCAA Quarterfinal Preview: Johns Hopkins vs #4 Bowdoin AS: I’ve started to incorporate the tank and tree formula into my life recently. I wake up at 8:55 AM to get to work at 9AM and so far it has (not) really worked out for me. For some people, it works a bit better – I’m…
NCAA Quarterfinal Preview: #7 Chicago vs #2 CMS D3West: to everyone who is now doubting CMS because they got swept in doubles by Tyler, I’m going to leave this here. People are also talking about Chicago as if they discovered the secret ingredient to Chik-fil-A sauce when they beat GAC 5-2, but they haven’t had…
We’re a day late on this, mostly because my colleagues have working behind the scenes to get some Elite 8 Previews for you all and I have been working at a Regional Recap (that sounds weird) for all of those small teams out there. Additionally, we’ve been trying to come together for our annual “Superlatives…
It’s Elite 8 week here at the blog, and that means more articles from us! Each writer will be bringing you in-depth previews of the specific matches, but today, I wanted to once again channel my inner-underdog self. We have four great matches on 5/23, and for each match, I will take a look at…
West region DIII men’s tennis fans, we’ve had ourselves a week. UT-Tyler went 6-0 in doubles over the weekend, scored the mini-upset over Whitman, and nearly made DIII tennis history by being the lowest ranked team ever to make it to the Elite Eight. CMS proved their mettle. Trinity wasn’t able to take advantage of…
The 2016 Quarterfinals–A brief history by the numbers “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” -D3TennisGuy (RIP). Today I thought we could continue our NCAA coverage with a look at each of the Elite 8’s past five years, and what (if anything) we can learn from the past. Turns out, not…
ASouth: I’m going to write this introduction for the Guru because I simply excel at introductions and conclusions. The rest of the stuff, I’m not so good at, which is a good thing because I’m not writing this article by myself. We’ve decided to come together for a Weekend Recap Roundtable, mostly focused on the…
