Competitiveness Series Part 4: Coaches Perspectives

So far in our competitiveness series we’ve taken a look at the rankings over the past 20 years, had a blogger roundtable, and made some sweet tables in an attempt to quantify the level of competitiveness this year versus previous years. This week we turn the microphone over to the coaches, who have a front…

D3RegionalNEC’s Conference Tournament Preview Extravaganza

Despite a busy week in both the Blog world with this dog stuff and in my real life world, I figured I should at least come out with some semblance of a preview for some of the notable conference tournaments here. I’m going to mainly focus on who can win the tournament and not get…

Bracketology Edition #2 – IMPT PLZ READ

I am admittedly slacking on Bracketology this year, but luckily I am not slacking as bad as the GoT writers, because the blog would be shut down at that point. Given that we had a lot of Pool C clarity this past weekend, but still don’t have FULL CLARITY, now seems like just the right…

RegionalNEC Hodge Podge

It’s UAA week, so before we get to the rest of the festivities, I’m going to give a little RegionalNEC-slanted preview, featuring everyone’s favorite bottom feeders NYU and Rochester.  These two are both solid teams but when the rest of your conference is in the top 15, it’s quite the uphill battle.

2019 Power Rankings, 4/23

D3NE: For the second consecutive week, D3AS has somebody else doing his dirty work and posting the Power Rankings. I guess when your the Blog’s Headmaster you think it’s ok to delegate a few things.

2019 Bracketology EDITION #1

AS: Your favorite blogger is here. I’ve done a lot of putting words on a page in the past few days and the buck does not stop there. We just finished March Madness which means I can actually focus instead of winning the blogger chat’s collective money. For you all, that means more writing. Since…

D3RegionalNEC’s One Shining Moment: The Week in Northeast and Central Action

The last few days the Blog group chat has gotten incredibly testy and I think it’s fair to say that tension between us is at an all time high. Watching this all go down has been kind of like watching your parents get in an argument—it’s very unsettling. So while we may be the second…

So, me and the rackets was talkin’ and here’s the rundown on the Central Act 1*

So, me and the rackets was talkin’ and here’s the rundown on the central region’s top 10 per the ITAs last regional rankings. I intend on giving a snapshot of each team’s season thus far and some predictions going forward. It’s been a minute since I’ve written something substantial but never forget: Central. Rules.
