Boo hiss!! recount!! Recount!!!

Well, that's a kick in the ___ .

Looks like ODU is the lone CUSA team in the CBI. Time for us to represent by winning this thing!

We didn't deserve to win this one. We got away many times where we should have lost during the season but won. Not any more. We sucked. I apologize for my team since they can't do it. :(

I think the wisdom is that the top 2 in the MWC are a step or two ahead of the top teams in CUSA, but the middle of the pack might be the opposite. UTEP and Fresno both came in fifth, so it might be a decent measuring stick to see where we are.

If this is a sign, it's not a very good one.

Radford beat Oregon State 96 - 92

So next up for ODU is Radford in Norfolk at the TED.

Aim High * Go Monarchs

It's a sign that UTEP needs to get a lot better at guard play, depth would help, and we need to give credit to our opponents when they beat us. In this case, congrats to Fresno St for going on the road and winning. Fresno St had a decent 2nd half of the season vs UTEP having a less than stellar 2nd half of the season. Good for them.

Ouch!

Congras to ODU. Hoping your game will be one of those on CBSSN. Keep it going.

The smoke and mirrors season has come to an end.

Final.

Tulane's season ends at 17-17. Princeton is probably the highest-rated team that didn't blow us out of the water.

And our leading scorer didn't play. Certainly one of our better efforts of the year.

Ok, Monarchs keep it going......

Aim High * Our Pride is Showing

One game away from ODU / Texas A&M (assuming the Aggies do their part). Let's go Monarchs!

I agree. It's been a disaster.

Pretty sure Stan and UTEPDallas don't consider the season a disaster...

The loss of players pushed us towards disaster. The outcome of the season as a result of the kids' heart, averted it.

No one would have expected the record and season we had when it all came down.
