<"This was a true community effort, said Marinatto.  "Everything ran so
smoothly.  The only complaint that got back to me was the long lines for
the men's rooms between periods.">
 
Perhaps Mr. Marinatto should be told of the many many disappointed fans who
couldn't get tickets because there were so few available to the schools.
Yes, the actual running of the tournament apparently went well, but the small
size of the facility stands in the way of a sport which is striving to expand
it's support base.  I sincerely hope the NCAA does not consider Providence
until the rink's seating is expanded.
