Todays 2pm matinee with the F'Hawks will be held at the Betty Engelstad Sioux Center. It was built in 2004 for under $10M in today's dollars. It only seats around 3300 but I think Ralph got one helluva good deal for his money.

I hope that spring-loaded floor puts a little pep in our step for a change.

Shooting very well today. Gilbeck with 2 fouls on the bench. Hughes looking farily good in his absence. I will go to my grave thinking Billy needs to go Twin Towers from the get-go. 3-2 zone on D and beat me from beyond the arc.

Tough call but I think you have to foul to extend the game when down by 3 with less than a minute to go. Did not happen today.

41 seconds to go, down 3. They let 25 seconds fly by before UND sinks the 3 point dagger with 14 seconds left. Why not quick foul and put them at the line. You give yourself two possessions to their one to end the game.

Cortez Seales' late 3-pointer lifts UND to a victory over Western Illinois.
