Ivy Madness MBB

And there's always the threat of a March snowstorm in Hanover to enhance the Madness.
I agree it is a small gym and there are not many hotel options,
but Hanover may be my favorite Ivy town to visit. The
Hanover Inn is great, and the area is beautiful.
Gonna be great in a few years when one school which expects to get both men’s and women’s teams in pre-books that whole place for its party of players, coaches, families, and big donors, while everyone else has to commute from Manchester.

I've been to every Ivy gym and the Pizz is by far the worst to watch a game in. Lines of sight are atrocious. Leede might be small but at least you can watch the game.

Google Lebanon NH hotels and you'll find there's actually plenty of hotel rooms, just not in Hanover itself.

I never understood why they built it when they had a 3000 seat arena in Marvel Gym. And I certainly don't understand why Harvard raised money for a 4500 seat arena and then didn't build it.

If I understand correctly, women were headed to 2bidIvy, until tonight! Announcers citing leading prognosticators in that Columbia & Princeton would both make the Dance - if they both made the championship. Ironically, our soirée just dashed that opportunity as Harvard upsets the Lions in OT. Our tournament scheme just backfired.

I hope this does not happen, Burt if Harvard wins today, Ivy
may get two bids.
