Daydreaming about SLU and Clarkson both hosting NCAA regionals is wonderful.
(Maybe we should set our sights on something more reasonal...like both making
the tourney this season. ;) OK, so there won't be enough hotels rooms but I do
think we could get the fans. Remember, Appleton isn't some huge place. Many
years ago I drove from the Boston area to Canton to attend an NCAA regional
series (we lost the series - I believe his name was Curtis Joseph). I am sure
that there are other folks, like me, who would make the trek up to the North
Country to see an NCAA series. The hotel room I stayed it wasn't exactly top
of the line. If I make that trip again, I want a better room.
