I went into my room last night to go to sleep but couldn’t manage to get to sleep so I turned on the television. I was just flipping right through the channels when I hit MSG. Normally, I only stop here if there is hockey on but tonight it was MAAC basketball from the Arena at Harbor Yard in Fairfield, Connecticut. Better than just MAAC round ball, it was overtime between Marist and Fairfield.
My oldest daughter attends Niagara University which is a MAAC school and I have attended several games, including a sell out at the TAPS Gallagher Center in January. I have been to Fairfield University, though not for basketball for soccer.
The Fairfield-Marist game was important because Siena and Rider had been upset on Saturday so there was a four-way tie for first place, leaving the winner of this game in sole possession of second place until the log jam at first is resolved. The game went into double overtime and was really a pretty good college game!
