It’s an exciting weekend for us at D3hoops.com, as we’ll be staffing seven of the eight sectionals. (Unofficially, the best we can remember doing in previous years is five.) We’re getting it done in a very NCAA-like manner, paying for two flights and driving people to the rest.
For the second season, D3hoops.com is broadcasting NCAA Tournament games under contract with NCAAsports.com. You can find links there or on our Audio page.
Here’s who’s where for D3hoops.com:
At Amherst: Seth Cantor and Paul Schreel
At Lawrence: Pat Cummings. Hoopsville’s Bob Quillman will join on non-Illinois Wesleyan games.
At Virginia Wesleyan: Pat Coleman and Dave McHugh
At Wittenberg: Chris Condit and Jared Rosenbaum
At DePauw: Gordon Mann. He’ll be joined by WGRE’s Wes Anderson on non-DePauw games.
At Scranton: John McGraw.
At Southern Maine: Mark Simon.
Sorry, Pacific Lutheran sectional fans. Washington is too far from any of us at this point and we’re out of people! Maybe in the future we’ll be able to hit all eight.
Stop by and say hi, though we hope you’ll understand if we’re too busy to chat.
We now have audio previews of all eight sectionals posted on our Live Audio page:
http://www.d3hoops.com/audio/
Consider them podcasts, unofficially.
Just think if it was the Lawrence Sectional you guys weren’t able to make of the eight! Wow…there would be anarchy. :-)lol.
The link on the NCAA scoreboard pages right now is the local broadcasts of the participating teams(ie the Bridgewater-USM game is a link to Southern Maine radio) at least for the women. Do you have the links where we can listen to your broadcasts?
The NCAA should have them posted at some point today. Otherwise, you can get all of our broadcasts at Broadcastmonsters.com.
And I’ve been put in charge of updating live scores on the D3hoops.com scoreboard all evening and night, so you’ll be able to listen to one game and get live updates on the others.

can wittenberg finally get some respect after beating Hope
Wittenberg was ranked No. 3. If that isn’t respect I don’t know what is.
you guys give us no coverage we beat hope and it’s and oh by the way. yes we were ranked no. 3 but people on this site said we wouldn’t beat Baldwin Wallace, and most people gave us no chance of beating Hope. Our defense is the best in the country we held hope to 17 points in the first half and yes they made a run at us in the second half but we stood tall and won.
Oh, my. Another WittWhiner. 🙁
you can say what you want if your team is still playing if not then you are the whiner not me even if Witt loses tonight they still made it to the Elite 8.
What some are calling whining sounds more like observing to me. On this site, Witt. was picked to be the most likely to be a disappointment in their bracket and now the d3hoops reporting of the game makes it sound more like Hope lost the game rather than that Wittenberg won it, as if they had nothing to do with it. That discredits the efforts of both teams.
While I disagree that posting while your team is out of contention automatically make one a whiner, name-calling is not at all attractive and reflects poorly on your team of choice.
And… GO TIGERS! (I subbed as the basketball team’s school mascot for a few games).
Well, we’re glad that Wittenberg fans have finally discovered the site, but let’s see — I took a one-sentence blurb (which WittFan complained about) and put in some details (which you complain about).
Listen, just because we’re not Wittenberg homers doesn’t mean we’re biased against you either. This is what being impartial is about. It wasn’t the biggest story of the night in D-III, though it certainly was in Ohio.
I’ll still take the last unbeaten team losing, the hottest team winning its 25th in a row, etc., as the lead stories.
I can live with that
I don’t expect Wittenberg to be the headline every reporting session. Impartiality is fine. I was mostly talking about the tone of the blurb, which seemed a bit blase given the match-up, which I’d think would have been of interest to a lot of D3 hoop fans, even those outside of Ohio (I live in NC, btw). Glad you guys are here and that the overall coverage everywhere of division III seems to be on the upswing. It is the antidote to what ails the fans that are tired of the NBA, in my opinion.
