Portland St. up 8-3 in set 5. Not lookin good.

Portland St. takes set 4. It's going to a 5th set in Pocatello.

ISU wins game 2 to even it up the match with Portland St.

Portland State wins game 1 against Idaho St. Need the Bengals to come back and give us the top seed and put next years tourney in the Betty.

Are we afraid to get a goalie to move side to side on a power play? Always seem to be going for a blast from the point rather than trying to set up a one timer on a moving goalie.

Our signature win will come March 20 in Spokane, Washington. And it might not be the only one.

UND with the sweep. Now 11-1 in the Big Sky

I wonder if the Midco could work out such a deal with Root or Altitude, but then ensure that the games are blacked out on those channels by the satellite providers in say North and South Dakota. That would seem to be the optimal answer for UND and Midco.

I'd put out a feeler to Ray Purpur and see if there is a hungry young coach on the Stanford staff. Rather have someone connected to a winning program like Stanford (also nice that they are on the West Coast) than a sad sack program like Minnesota.

Depends on if they want to play right away. Looking at it from that perspective a kid might think he can come in and play right away, with not a lot of upper-classman talent blocking the path.

Not a banner Saturday for UND athletics.

Line of the day!

Wonder if Bartels will see the field today? Mollberg just seems to be lacking confidence right now. Defense isn't playing too bad.

Now we just need to get more men's basketball on Midco. It's disappointing that neither the Weber St. or Montana games will be covered.

Just goes to show how important non-conference wins are in all sports when you are looking for NCAA tourney bids.

Congrats to UND on its first Big Sky conference win 3-1 over Eastern Washington. They have had some tight losses and seem to be pretty young. Perhaps this team will also be able to turn the corner like Volleyball did. I got to speak with some of the players at the football game and came away impressed with their positive attitudes.

UND wins 3-0. 100th win at UND for Coach Hardee.

Yeah, Bream was a Pirate longer than he was a Brave, and I believe he is a coach in the Pirate's system today. Looks like Cinderella will need to beat Wainright to keep the season alive and meet the Dodgers.

what a rally to finish it off, 6 straight points. Way to go, UND!

That service error after the 3-0 start was costly. Hopefully they can get re-established and finish this off.

Great comeback thus far to send it to a fifth set. Mo is on our side.

Bucs are up 2-1. Raise the Jolly Roger, baby! Hopefully the curse of Sid Bream has been lifted.

For me the video was decent, but the audio was very hard to hear. I switched to the radio feed and that was fine, but the audio on the webcast was very soft. Hopefully won't be a problem for the men's games. The video loses a little bit when you go to full screen, not sure how it would look on TV since I was just watching on the laptop. Looking forward to see if the HD is a reality for the men, since the women's games aren't shot in HD for webcast. (Although I'd guess maybe the ones that air on Midco will be). I also have MLB.tv, so I know what the capabilities of my machine are, and I'm excited about HD webcast.

UND picked up the sweep with a 6-1 win. Susanna Tapani is the real deal. 6 point weekend and she looked very confident throughout. This team looks like it might do some damage this year, there is a lot of firepower offensively and the D seems improved.

I could envision the Big Ten inviting UND as an affiliate for Mens and Women's Hockey and inviting Syracuse as an affiliate for Women's Hockey. That would allow them to add a Big Ten Women's league. That would be a pretty attractive offer for UND to jump at.
