With the ITA Rankings coming out today, we decided to hold Power Rankings until after, so we could compare what we really thought about those ITA Rankings. Kidding, I just didn’t get around to this yesterday when I was making my NCAA Bracket (Go Kansas!) and decided to wait until now to post, as I…
Tuesday, March 15 #5 Amherst @ #10 Pomona-Pitzer 1pm NEVER, bury the lead. Although the Trinity Ct vs. Sewanee has an earlier start time, this match gets top-billing for a reason. Amherst has played 4 matches in the past two days and have dropped a total of 0 points. Yup, they’re 36-0 on the year. Something…
It’s bracket time again people. This week’s POTW is March Madness themed with Wooden Award Candidate nicknames given to some of our sport’s very best. This week featured a heck of a lot of excellent tennis, from Stag-Hen to teams on spring break, and even a couple of season debuts. Congrats to this week’s winners,…
Hello again, boys and girls! It’s just about March Madness time, which is cause for celebration. Now, you might initially think of Cinderellas, busted brackets and crying piccolo players, but that’s not actually the madness to which i’m referring. Right about Selection Sunday, a bunch of NE schools make their annual pilgrimage to the tennis Mecca…
Wow, the Stag-Hen may have started off with a little bit of a fizzle, but it finished with a bang. The other writers are sure to chip in with their thoughts, but here are a few of my observations since the tournament included my three top teams and another one of my top 7: Emory…
The rain delay and my timely getting off of work has allowed me to do a quick preview of Stag-Hen round two. I’m playing tennis myself soon and have to leave in 15 minutes, so let’s see how many words I can fire off. My guess is about 500. I’m hoping they will be getting…
STAG HEN: X-Factors Happy Friday, boys and girls. The Stag Hen is the 2nd big tournament of the year without any NE teams, but I wasn’t going to let the other writers have all the fun. They think they’re so cool with their fancy tournaments and their match-by-match previews. Who needs them? I decided that…
This is going to be a long post as we’re going Match by Match for the Stag-Hen, so buckle up. Play begins tomorrow at check the CMS website time. I believe it’s at 12 noon Eastern Time though. Heh. Let’s get to it. #1 CMS vs. #8 UT-Tyler D3West: This is obviously my match to…
As some of you may or may not know, a huge tournament otherwise known as the Stag-Hen is going to start tomorrow. This tournament features the two main teams from California, CMS and Pomona, hosting a ton of great teams on their home courts. This tournament always seems to have a different feel than Indoors,…
We are back with another set of Power Rankings! Now, not much happened this past week in terms of matches, as we saw a lot of chalk performances such as Bates def. MIT, UWW over GAC, and Pomona over UMW. However, Redlands did pull the upset over the UMW Eagles and they are now benefiting…
