Wow, this is ridiculous for South Carolina vs Connecticut. The 3 referees should be fired out for never. It was for both teams and sad to see that the game was ugly.
What a great Player of the Year @kj_lamonte13! Now win the championship and then keep on going.

ALT Bold Player of the Year basketball graphic featuring an Indian Hills player in a white jersey celebrating at center. Large layered text reads “PLAYER OF the Year” across the middle, with ICCAC logo in the top left and NJCAA Basketball logo in the top right. The background uses a maroon and gold torn-paper design with smoky lighting effects, highlighting the athlete and creating a dramatic college basketball award poster. A stylized script signature at the bottom reads “KJ LaMonte.”
For @djillini1 and @KedPrince4 that was all about the head coach. You never lose a game after you are up 33-10. You don't go to the OT and throw 3-point shots on almost every Illini playing. You never allow a layup from 80 feet.

His influence was truly worldwide.
Isn't the idea to win the game. The Dodgers were leading 3-1 for 4 innings and the Cardinals were 4-0 and that won the game.

Congratulations @nolimitmarrr great thing!
I thought the MLB umps were bad last year, but it is way worse this year. Watching this Cardinals-Pirates game and watching it the game is so sickening with these umps. Between both teams I saw 20-25 pitches incredibly wrong. The players try to work, how about the umps to work.
Congratulations @nolimitmarrr!!!

What a great game. These guys got ahead and they never let it go. It was fun to watch, a full Carver Center and a loud crowd. Let's see the same thing on Tuesday for the CCIW Tournament.
