New for the 2011-2012 seasons, the America East Daily Word, a collaboration between AmericaEast.com and AExtra, will recap the previous day's games and on goings on our nine campuses and provide links to previews, recaps, features and exclusive coverage.
No
NBA?
No
problem.
As
disappointing as the prospect of a winter without pro hoops is, we’ve still got
college basketball galore. The 24-hour College Hoops Tip-Off Marathon today
provides us with some great early season matchups and plenty of basketball to
satisfy our craving for the hardwood.
Perhaps
you recall the adventures of two of last year’s interns – Max Mandel and Keith Arsenault
– who ventured to New Jersey for the Stony Brook-Monmouth game that tipped at 6
a.m. It was part of the 24-hour marathon but naturally the story of the day was
seeing Max struggle to wake up at 4:30. Head over to the AExtra Blog to check
out that video.
UMBC
is doing its part to feed the basketball monster by going all access with its
women’s basketball team. Led by Phil Stern, the lady Retrievers have started
the season 2-0 and are certainly happy about that. At least that’s the sense we
get from the first installment of our all-access tour with the Retrievers. That
video is also available on AExtra.
Make sure to check
out the first players of the week video of the season, as well.
The complete Daily Word is available on the AExtra Blog.
