This is not going to be your typical intro, so if you’re not in a reflective mood about things larger than DIII tennis, that’s ok. Feel free to move on down to the #WallOfBlurbs and the Amherst season preview below… 5 years ago I wrote a season preview with an intro about the passing of…
Hello again, and Happy Holidays, readers! As you finish up your last minute Christmas shopping, our gift to you is a few season previews to read while you’re watching holiday movie re-runs for the umpteenth time or sitting by the fireplace watching below average college football. Recently we’ve had previews for Bates, Hopkins, CMS and…
Seasons Greetings, everyone. Not sure who out there is thinking about D3 Tennis right now, but I hope you’re ready for what I am confident is the most confusing season preview of the year. Whether your team is directly involved in this or not, I recommend giving this post a skim, as there are potential…
We’re continuing the season of previews with a look at the unranked Bates Bobcats. That is not a sentence Bates fans (and we have some doozies going back to back-to-back infamous bracket reveals and even @ForehandFla) are used to reading, however after a couple 5-4 losses to UW-Whitewater and Babson last spring, the Bobcats find…
SEASON! PREVIEWS!! ARE!!! HERE!!!! What you’re about to read over the next few months may be some of the most insanely idiotic guesswork you’ve ever seen. At no point in our rambling, incoherent previews will we be even close to anything that could be considered rational thought. In fact, all of you readers may be…
We’re deep into our hot take series now, and we have yet another blogger spewing some hate at the fall season. We only have a few more of these and then we’ll see just how many season previews we can wring from the lifeless hands of the bloggers during their offseason. In case you missed…
We’re definitely into true offseason mode now as the responses to the hot takes get thinner and thinner. Luckily resident boomer AVZ is here and he majored in lightning rounds… AVZ TAKE/DEFENSE I am going to go with speed round because I have multiple takes. 1) Case Western is a top 10 team and will…
Our “hot” takes have been all over the place so far, and I know that’s partially my fault. I am not sorry. It will, however, disappoint our dear readers to know that The Analyst and NewD3Central are STILL not an item. I’m frustrated but I haven’t lost faith yet. Let’s take a break from Blogger…
FINALLY. This is where I was hoping we’d land upon starting this series. Something tennis related, inherently a mix of fun and ridiculous, and leading down the rabbit hole of farfetched rule changes. Behold, my favorite hot take yet (sorry ASW)… NewRegional TAKE/DEFENSE: The home team should choose whether singles or doubles is played first.…
Our next hot take comes from our newest writer, D3CentralWomens. Although, it’s not so much a hot take, as some sort of Title IX violation? If this is happening at your school, please reach out to any of us (I’m at D3Northeast@gmail.com or @D3Northeast) and let us know. D3CentralWomens TAKE/DEFENSE It’s just wrong that due…
