NCAA action continued yesterday for both men and women. In men's action, Ohio Wesleyan hosted a bracket, with Carnegie Mellon, Calvin, and Susquehanna. Wheaton (Ill.) hosted a bracket as well with Wittenberg, Carroll, and Ohio Northern. In Dubuque, Iowa, Loras hosted Greenville, Dominican, and Rose-Hulman. And in New Jersey, Richard Stockton hosted St. Joseph's, Christopher Newport, and Drew.
At Ohio Wesleyan, UAA's at-large participant Carnegie Mellon was a 3-0 winner over MIAA champ Calvin. In the 60th minute, junior Ryan Browne opened the scoring for the Tartans, followed by a goal by junior Ricky Griffin two minutes later to make it 2-0. Griffin added a third goal late in the match. "The score is not an indication of how close this game was," said Carnegie Mellon coach Arron Lujan. "I think it was an evenly played game. The difference is we finished the chances we had and Calvin didn't." The Tartans will meet Ohio Wesleyan, who needed overtime to defeat Pool B pick Susquehana 1-0.
