Hoopsville Podcast: March 2, Tournament Special

Posted on by

The brackets are announced for both the men and women’s Division III Basketball Championship Tournaments and despite plans, they were done simultaneously! That doesn’t mean we weren’t ready to get those brackets to you and get reaction from the Championship Committee Chairs! If you missed any of the show (or all of it)… take some time to listen to why some teams didn’t make the tourney, where the surprises where, and why some hosting decisions were made accordingly.

Guests included:
– Men’s Committee Chair Jim Dafler
– Women’s Committee Chair Karen Tessmer

Hoopsville Podcast: March 1, Selection Sunday

Posted on by

Well… it all came down to the games leading up until we hit the air on whether schools made the tournament or not. For some, too many upsets will leave them on the outside looking in. For others, the fact there is at-large bids will help keep their seasons alive.

So, to get everyone ready for the NCAA Tournament, Hoopsville doubled up and brought in extra help to help you. Gordon Mann and Brett Adams (Stevenson Univ. AD & Coach) came in studio as we previewed what we think will happen when the NCAA announces who is in and who is playing who on Monday.

Guests included:
– Mary Washington Women’s Coach Deana Applebury
– ODAC Commissioner Brad Bankston
– Gettysburg Coach Jeff Petrie
– Brandeis Coach Brian Meehan
