August 22nd, 2024 - Zombie Richmond wins it all!
Proving that the Hardwood AI is superior to humans, the Richmond Spiders bot-lead team dispatched six human managed teams in the tournament to win their first title. In the final game against UNC-Asheville, the Spiders went out to a 55-31 halftime lead and finished the game up by 26 points. Marvin Wells was the game MVP with 27 points and six 3-pointers. Perhaps the Spiders were motivated by the attendance of Ted Lasso to cheer on his Richmond team - they sure played like it. Props to pschwartz for building the juggernaut before dropping in the month before March Madness. Also, congratulations to Gaelic Ale and the South Dakota State Jackrabbits (Division II tournament winners) and the Glenville State Pioneers (Division III tournament winners).
August 21st, 2024 - Final Four once more!
This season’s final four features some interesting matchups.

The second semi-final features the #3 seeded St. Josephs Hawks (III.3, 39-6, TPI 160.9) against the #3 seeded UNC-Asheville Bulldogs (IV.4, 35-10, TPI 148.4). Good luck to all!

September 8th, 2024 - Urbana continues to thrive under AD LoganBall - Urbana Blue Knights
Urbana enters their conference schedule 33rd in RPI for D3 play. Definitely the best position we've been in since I've taken over the team. TPI still says its going to be an uphill battle to be competitive for promotion this year in conference VI.6. With signing of Caleb Horn earlier this week, the future continues to look bright for Urbana basketball. - LoganBall

September 4th, 2024 - It's OK to be sad - Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts Trailblazers
After reeling off a string of five double digit wins, most team buses would be filled with back slaps and bonhomie, but not so in the 1997 Prevost H3-45 charged with lugging our beloved Trailblazers around the country. Sadly, the spectre of last month's horrific loss to Whitman has turned this team into a group of joyless automatons. Witness the lack of celebration yesterday, when after scoring 35 points Lanny Solberg headed back to the bench with nary a high five in sight. This may be the saddest time at MCLA since the Hot Dog Cannon Malfunction of '22. - sparky
