In the interest of sportsmanship, I want to congratulate our Brew Town brothers. Your team had a great run through the tournament and represented the Horizon League well last night against a very good opponent. I also want to commend Rob Jeter for returning your program to prominence far sooner than I'm sure any of us expected. Best wishes for continued success!

Agree, they had a great run and made the rest of us look bad in doing so. The Horizon is now down to Wright State, who plays Ohio this Saturday. CSU and us lose by 2 in the first round, GB gets dumped in the first round as well, and Milwaukee makes it to the second round! Not really much on which to hangs ones hat.
Next year will be very interesting with the POY returning, Green Bay will be very tough. Milwaukee returns three of their top six guys so won't be any pushover and CSU is loaded. Oh, and there's us. I expect a much improved Out of Conference result, if, and it's a big if, our teams can actually be willing to play those games and of course, if "those teams" will be willing to take on top notch Horizon League teams.
