UM Duluth won the rubber game with Concordia St. Paul in four games and they did it on CSP's home floor in the North Central region. The all region team is in the CSP link above. UMDuluth will play UC San Diego at noon on November 16 at West Florida University in Pensacola, FL in the final 8 D2 tournament .

Defending national champion UW Whitewater beat UW Eau Claire in four on the UWEC floor in the Midwest Regional. It was Whitewater's third victory over Eau Claire this season. They now move on in the bracket to the D3 final 8 at the Salem, VA Civic Center to face California Lutheran. It is unclear to me when they play. Maybe you can figure out from this site.

Now what?
It is not over. It never is. Their will be more all this and all that lists coming out in the next few weeks. Also JO season will be cranking up. I will need help in getting that information up. I will be linking JO sites soon.
I also took a bazillion pictures at the state. I hope most are clear enough to post.
Of course the Gophers are still playing and we will be covering that activity to be sure.

Next up: tomorrow morning. Of course I need to retro fit yesterdays games too.
