D3 championship weekend

[shelfit]

Adrian loses 10 seniors and besides Lupi, all their offense and goaltending. Will be very interesting to see how they do next year!

I dare say they won't do as well. This might have been their best shot at the title. Who knows when they'll be able to repeat this year's performance.

Clarkson University beat Wisconsin 3-0 for the D1 Championship today ! Two Northern New York Schools 90 miles apart win both Championships for Women's Hockey. Congrats to both.

Must be some sort of winning ingredient they put in the food in their respective dining halls.

Don't forget that they're both D3 schools, and the last time Clarkson won, the Union men did the same, sweeping all 4 titles for the D3 schools

Re: D3 championship weekend

Late to the party...but want to give my congratulations to Plattsburgh. Never thought I would see the end of Middlebury's dominance (men and women), which is what I remember from my Plattsburgh days. Things look so much better from our side of Lake Champlain! Hope the men will claim another title again soon. Do not understand why Plattsburgh did not host the tournament? Must be a simple explanation.

For the game, thought Adrian had the precision passing from the first whistle. Penalties were very undisciplined for the Cardinals, but Adrian was 0-10 against Gustavus Adolphus and it hurt them throughout the tournament. Perhaps the experience of having been here before made the difference for Plattsburgh. The highlight-reel ending in regulation and then OT winner left me speechless.

Interesting! I think by being D-III yet having D-I hockey as their crowned jewel, they are in a unique class all to themselves. Add RPI and St. Lawrence to that mix as well. Union has a new women's coach and finally won a few games this season...And congrats to Clarkson. Any ECAC team that wins a title against a power conference to help dispel that lingering EZAC monniker/image deserves a lot of credit!

Watched the game and I'm glad to see the west finally getting their act together and starting to challenge the east. Although not really sure I'd consider Michigan that far west...

The NCAA decided they wanted it hosted out West at least once every four years. This was the year since it had been in Plattsburgh for 3 straight years since Superior, WI in 2013.

I didn't think it was far West either, then I drove it!

Very true...but as long as I can remember...Clarkson has played D1 hockey and D3 in other sports. Not sure when Union went D1 in hockey, but I remember when the Plattsburgh men played them year after year in D3.

In our 1st 2 years (03-04 & 04-05), we played Plattsburgh.

IIRC the last time our men played Plattsburgh, we lost.

Are you talking Clarkson? I believe Plattsburgh lost the last men's meeting. Cheer had recently opened and Plattsburgh was leading or tied but then Clarkson took over.
