We follow UMaine hoops and have a two-part dream: That one day the Black Bears will play in the NCAA Tournament and have a first-class, on-campus facility of their own ... a home for Black Bears basketball.

There is no more important event during the mid-major basketball season than the league tournament, so how a player performs on the biggest stage can make a huge impact on my personal ballot.<br /><br />The selection for Player of the Year is Albany's <span style="font-weight: bold;">Gerardo Suero</span>, a 6-3 guard. He was spectacular at times during the tournament and led America East in scoring. He scores easily in a league where buckets sometimes feel like a root canal. He slashes, he spins and he's got a knack for getting to the spot for rebounds. He's the best talent in the league.<br /><br />Rookie of the Year goes to Hartford's <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mark Nwakamma</span>. The 6-6 forward used the tournament as a springboard. He's been a key player during the Hawks' recovery from an abysmal non-conference record, but his performance during the tournament served notice to the rest of the league. He can rebound, he can defend and he's not afraid to take a big shot.<br /><br />Stony Brook's <span style="font-weight: bold;">Steve Pikiell</span> earns the Coach of the Year selection. He's got the Seawolves back in the title game after winning the regular season title. After a look at his roster and its performance last weekend, Stony Brook has the feel of a consistent contender.<br /><br />For the rest of the Black Bears Pit honor roll, check out the sidebar to the right.<br /><br />When perusing the Black Bears Pit honors, there's a name conspicuous by its absence: Gerald McLemore.<br /><br />McLemore, a senior captain and UMaine's leading scorer, came down with an illness early in the week and was unable to play. He didn't make the trip to Hartford. In all the years of following America East (and many of those in attendance were buzzing about it), nobody could remember a player who, despite injury or illness, did not at least attend the conference tournament. There are always exceptions, of course. Evidently, this was one.Dan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5986722791720029993.post-38360636033602328282012-03-08T12:00:00.002-05:002012-03-08T12:12:06.105-05:00Long timeOn our drive back from the America East tournament, the topic of who was the last link to a Black Bears' win in the postseason was a topic of conversation.<br /><br />As a trivia question, it would read: In what year did UMaine last have a player on its roster who was part of the 2005 quarterfinal win over Boston University and who was the player or players?<br /><br />According to our research, it came down to a single player who was on the 2008 roster. Drum roll please ............... Jason Hight, the versatile former walk-on guard from Westbrook.<br /><br />Another research topic? What school holds the America East record for consecutive tournament losses? Not sure I want to know.Dan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5986722791720029993.post-53317914977411304452012-03-01T23:08:00.002-05:002012-03-01T23:10:46.598-05:00Tournament picks<strong>Quarterfinals</strong><br />Stony Brook over Binghamton<br />New Hampshire over Albany<br />Vermont over UMaine<br />Boston U. over Hartford<br /><br /><strong>Seminfinals</strong><br />New Hampshire over Stony Brook<br />Boston U. over Vermont<br /><br /><strong>Finals</strong><br />Boston U. over New HampshireDan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5986722791720029993.post-44787760612691137912012-02-26T17:15:00.002-05:002012-02-26T17:18:08.061-05:00Game time setAmerica East has released the bracket and game times for the upcoming conference tournament.

The Catamounts own the tie-breaker and would be the No. 1 seed. ... A Stony Brook win gives the Seawolves the outright regular season title, the No. 1 seed and most likely puts the Black Bears into the No. 7 slot against No. 2 Vermont. Either way, the Black Bears open with a team that swept them during the regular season.<br /><strong>The pick:</strong> Black Bears shock the world - well, at least Long Island - and go into the tournament on a two-game roll.<br /><br /><strong>Black Bears summary</strong><br />Win or New Hampshire loss: No. 6 seed vs. Boston University<br />Lose and New Hampshire win: No. 7 seed vs. Vermont.<br /><br /><strong>Binghamton at New Hampshire</strong><br />UNH would move up to the No. 5 slot (moving Hartford to No. 6) with a victory and a UMaine loss. If the Wildcats and Black Bears both win, the 5-6-7 slots would read: Hartford, UMaine and UNH.<br /><strong>The pick:</strong> For UNH, the payoff is huge in this one. A win gets them a date with Albany in the 4-5 game or a matchup with Stony Brook or Vermont in the 2-7. Wildcats win this one.Dan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5986722791720029993.post-65070038920947961012012-02-25T17:10:00.000-05:002012-02-25T17:11:26.245-05:00Saturday, Feb. 25 resultsVermont 80, UMBC 49<br />Boston U. 64, Hartford 55Dan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5986722791720029993.post-36968233612900532472012-02-23T21:46:00.000-05:002012-02-23T21:47:37.101-05:00Thursday, Feb. 23 result<strong>Albany 74, Binghamton 63</strong>Dan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5986722791720029993.post-6299917997934240362012-02-23T09:10:00.002-05:002012-02-23T10:08:08.634-05:00Tonight in America East<span style="font-weight: bold;">Albany at Binghamton</span><br />Bearcats host their rivals coming off first win of the season.

Although I was there, I had no recollection of him.<br /><br />What I did remember was Harvard shooting a lot of free throws in a close game.<br /><br />Sure enough, Lin came off the bench and played 25 minutes for the Crimson. He scored two points on 1-for-6 shooting, had six rebounds, two assists and four steals.<br /><br />As for the foul shots? Harvard made 28 of 37 to the Black Bears' 10 of 15 and won the game, 75-71.<br /><br />So, there you go. The Black Bears held Jeremy Lin to two points.<br /><br />Two years later, however, Lin and Harvard visited Orono and posted a 76-63 victory and Lin did what he's doing now in the NBA, filled the stat sheet.<br /><br />In the December 2008 game, Lin led the Crimson with 18 points. He also had seven rebounds, six assists, two steals and a blocked shot.Dan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5986722791720029993.post-42970462656664193152012-02-12T14:38:00.002-05:002012-02-12T15:57:34.927-05:00Sunday, Feb. 12 ResultsVermont 68, Stony Brook 49<br />Hartford 62, Binghamton 60<br />New Hampshire 66, UMBC 60 ...

The status of guard Logan Aronhalt (15 points per game) and forward Luke Devlin for today's game is uncertain.<br />UMaine must maintain the defensive focus displayed in the Vermont and Boston U. losses and smooth out some rough edges on the offensive end.<br /><strong>The pick:</strong> Black Bears.Dan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5986722791720029993.post-66122537774353363282012-02-10T13:17:00.014-05:002012-02-10T14:13:27.150-05:00Keep it simple and get a shotBill Parcells said he refused to complain or make issue of injuries, experience and other peripheral items because what he found, is that when players hear or read that, it gives them an excuse for poor performance or losing.<br /><br />So, that said, I hope the Black Bears didn't read Pete Warner's recent "analysis" of the ballclub.<br /><br />Basically, what Warner wrote was: The Black Bears don't have enough experience, chemistry, talent and have too many injuries to contend in America East.<br /><br />It read like a menu of excuses should the Black Bears care to dine at his whine and cheese factory.<br /><br />I've seen enough America East games to not only believe the Black Bears are capable of contending, but to say, they should be contending. This America East, like each of the past couple of years, is there to be had. UMaine is not in contention, but that's not the point.<br /><br />The point is continuing to fight and get better. Capitulate? Never, ever. You do that and a team will never improve.<br /><br />I went down to Boston U. last night and watched as the Black Bears, minus Ali Fraser, fought back several times against a Terriers team contending for first place. I didn't see a juggernaut at Case Gym.<br /><br />Of UMaine's top eight in the rotation, five of them (Gerald McLemore, Mike Allison, Andrew Rogers, Raheem Singleton and Fraser) are all players with plenty of America East battle scars.<br /><br />Freshmen Justin Edwards is going through some customary first-year adjustments, but he's been an impact player and is the odds-on rookie of the year in America East. Freshman Xavier Pollard is providing some good minutes and plays with strength.<br /><br />Jon McAllian is a veteran of the program and played what would have to be considered his best game as a Black Bear at Boston U. last night. Travon Wilcher and Kilian Cato have supplied some minutes in the frontcourt, too.<br /><br />To say this team doesn't have enough experience is flat out baseless. Chemistry? Injuries? Those are excuses. Every team has injuries to deal with. Chemistry is a cop out.<br /><br />Back to Parcells. You give people a reason to fail and, most likely, you know what's going to happen?<br /><br />So don't listen, Black Bears. The doughnut-munching media want to give you an out. Don't take the bait.<br /><br />Keep playing hard, play together (make simple plays and protect the ball on offense; that's my not-so-expert analysis) and dig in on defense every trip.<br /><br />Keep it simple and get a shot.Dan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5986722791720029993.post-39278544252284963012012-02-10T09:16:00.002-05:002012-02-10T09:29:55.901-05:00Great middle classRecent results in America East have thrown the Nos. 4 through 7 slots in America East up for grabs.<br /><br />A week ago, Albany appeared to be a lock for the No. 4 spot and Hartford and UMaine would make up the 5-6 places. Not so fast.<br /><br />Albany is now just a game ahead of UMaine and Hartford in the loss column (the Great Danes visit Orono Saturday) for fourth place while New Hampshire is two back in the loss column and breathing down the necks of the Black Bears and Hawks.<br /><br />Last night's loss at Boston U. leaves UMaine tied with Hartford for No. 5, but the Hawks own the tiebreaker right now with their win in Orono.<br /><br />Those four teams will fight to avoid a quarterfinal matchup with Stony Brook, Vermont or Boston U.<br /><br />Remaining schedules:<br />Albany (7-6): at Black Bears, Vermont, at Binghamton.<br />Hartford (5-7): Binghamton, Black Bears, Stony Brook, at Boston U.<br />Black Bears (5-7): Albany, at Hartford, New Hampshire, at Stony Brook.<br />New Hampshire (4-8): at UMBC, at Boston U., at Black Bears, Binghamton.Dan Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10071418475939619944noreply@blogger.com0
