Game 32: A-10 Tournament Opening Round, Saint Louis University, Wednesday, March 9th, 6:30 PM, ASN

[Washingtonian]

As of when I am starting this, I am not seeing where the game is televised in DC. I have Xfinity, and maybe the guide isn't updated yet, but usually, ASN games end up being on MASN.

St. Louis comes in with a 10-20 record/5-13 in the Atlantic 10.

The box scores from both games with St. Louis can be found here:

Feb 17 in Fairfax: http://www.gomason.com//ViewContent.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=25200&CONTENT_ID=1664463 (79-77 loss in OT)

Discuss.

This team has been wildly unpredictable. You would think there's no way St. Lou beats us twice this season,but who knows. My hope is that, other than the recent GW game, this team has been able to get up for bigger games. They had a let down against St. Louis earlier, but now that it's a tournament game they should be at their absolute best. It sure would be nice to finally win an A-10 tournament game, and would help to continue to build the confidence of our young guys. It's gonna be rough next year without 2/3 of our inside presence; the more cocky our guards can get, the better.

I will say this - it's the first year I'll be following the A-10 tournament with any interest whatsoever. I like that. I also like that there's no way any team wants to face us in the tournament. We've proven that we can beat anyone and cannot be counted on for an easy win. Not bad for a 12th place team.

I have given up making predictions about the outcome of our games. I will say this, I think it's critical to the program to win at least one in the A10 tournament.

I like our chances against St. Louis. Got to pound them on the inside, clean up the glass, and guard the freakin three point line.

One game at a time. Focus .....focus....focus. The team has absolutely nothing to lose- play like every second means something. Break their hearts and then crush their spirits. Leave everything on the floor including your opponents blood.

Hopefully this game ends up on MASN and as an out of towner I can hit a local bar to catch it. I'm not seeing it offered for streaming over the A-10 site, but I think they've streamed the opening round in the past.

78-74 Mason. Just win one!

This will be my first trip to Barclay's. Excited for this one.

I checked on ASN's Web site for the channel offering the game in NoVA. No dice. The query returned "Not available in your area." WTF?!?

 

[MasonFanatic]

MASN does not have a live event scheduled for Wednesday night. They show a replay of a classic basketball game in their listings. So, there is hope.

ASN games sometimes end up on CSN or CSN+ as well.

I would be shocked if there is no A10 Network stream. It also looks like ASN will be offering the stream on their own website: http://americansportsnet.com/630-p-m-atlantic-10-mens-first-round/

I checked my comcast channel guide last night and the game will in fact be on CSN Wednesday evening.

Us - 75
Them - 65

Would that be Comcast Mid-Atlantic? I'm probably looking in the wrong place, but I'm seeing Rice vs. Charlotte listed at 6:30 on Wednesday for both CSN-MA and CSN-Baltimore. I am seeing the La Salle vs. Duquesne game on at 9 on CSN +.

That's what I'm seeing as well (FIOS-Fairfax County-Ch.576). However, CSNMA+ (578) is listed for "Sign Off" in that same time block, so maybe there's some hope. Is there an email address to bombard them with?

In Alexandria, it's going to be on Comcast channel 846 (CSN).

 

[Vurbel]

Does anybody know if it's online?

See MasonFanatic's post above - appears to be a stream offered on ASN's site.

There will be an A10 network stream according to this: http://www.nmnathletics.com/ViewArt...e&utm_campaign=trafficpattern&DB_OEM_ID=31600

I signed in and neither opening round game was listed under "live event." I imagine links will appear as the games get closer.
