March madness!

No, I'm not talking about basketball. For me, March is all about NCAA Hockey, and in particular, Clarkson University Hockey. I'm currently listening to a (poor quality) internet audio feed of the ECAC Tournament Semi-final game between my Golden Knights and Dartmouth University. The second period is drawing to a close, and Clarkson has just taken a 3-1 lead. If they hold on to win, they face Quinnipiac University (which upset No. 1 seed St. Lawrence University earlier this evening) tomorrow night for the ECAC Championship.

Clarkson finished the regular season ranked fifth in the nation, and is virtually guaranteed a slot in the NCAA tournament. However, winning the ECAC tournament would probably improve their placement in the NCAA bracket, though I don't know how much faith I have in their ability to bring home a national title. I'd be happy with a final four appearance, and estatic if they could make it to the championship game.

Now if there was only some way I could actually watch these games...
