Where we’ll be this week

Where will we be? Everywhere, for the first time.

The very first year of our existence we couldn’t even get to both Final Fours. That year, 1998, was the last year the women’s Final Four was not played at a predetermined site and we simply couldn’t get a team up to Maine on that short notice.

Things have certainly changed for the better for us over the past decade. This year, for the first time, we’ll have a crew at all eight sectional finals, so you can listen to D3hoops.com’s coverage of every Elite Eight game, thanks to Allinbroadcasting and NCAASports.com.

I’ll be at St. John Fisher for all three games. Seth Cantor and Eric Ren will call the final from Amherst on Saturday and video will be available. Dave McHugh will be at Virginia Wesleyan for all three games and Wayne Randazzo is making the trip to UW-Stevens Point for three as well.

Mark Simon will do all three games from Emmanuel. Gordon Mann is doing all three games at Luther. Lance Medow makes his network debut for us from NYU, with John Vukelj joining him on Friday. And Sugar Ray Martel will call the Elite Eight game from Scranton for us on Saturday.

And in true D-III penny-pinching fashion, we do all this with one flight. 🙂

Then we’ll have crews at both Final Fours. There will be live online video produced by the NCAA for both semifinals and the third-place game with our broadcasters calling the action and we’ll have an audio broadcast of the title game, including the announcements of our All-American teams in our pregame coverage.
