Road to the 2002 College Cup [R}

tomorrow afternoon, around 3:30 or 4:00 i think.

www.ncaachampionships.com will have coverage.

last year the draw was on tv.

 

Well I, for one, surely hope that the players of those teams that are on the bubble attend their classes tomorrow instead of watching the infernal television.

 

Don't worry Heywood, the selection show is always in the evening so most students wouldn't be missing classes anyway.

 

Does anyone know if one of the fox sports channels will carry the draw? Thanks.

 

I think it's on ESPN News.

 

Hey collegesoccerfan#1, you know who will have the best info on the tournament locally! Check out the 6:00 news LIVE from Chapel Hill.

 

ncaa show

The Ncaa selection is on espn news at 1:30 pm pst.

 

Hello? Is anyone watching ESPN News for the Div 1 selections? Please advise.

 

I am, I'll post stuff during the breaks.

 

Of particular importance - could you tell me who Loyola (Md) is playing? I am guessing UMd

 

Has it started yet?

 

Thanks Luv!

 

Fingers tapping on my desk as I await the selections....

Not to be a pain but which team is the home team? First or second

 

They didn't do it all nice and slow like last year. There were NO breaks and it went really really fast. I'll go through and put the locations in the draw in a second.

Thanks Jabo!

 

How in the world did Penn State get a first round bye? I mean, I know they won the Big 10 tourney, but before this weekend they were questionable about even getting into the NCAA's. And now they are given a first round bye? I don't mind much, though, because of any team for UNC to play if it gets to the 2nd round, Penn St. is fine with me.

They are good, but I'm not convinced they're in the top 16.

 

Wisconsin-Milwaukee sure didn't get much love from the powers that be. Not even a first round bye for the 9th ranked team?

 

I guess most of the battle for the Palmetto state will be decided with which team comes out of the Coastal/USC then winner vs. Clemson part of the bracket. I'm sure Furman will still feel like it's the best team in SC, but as usual their weak schedule has hurt them for tournament seeding.
