If my memory serves me correctly, I think Ryan Marks worked with/for Larry Greer's brother Andy when he was at Northern Illinois. (Ryan also dated a friend of mine, but that's another story). My timing may be off by a year or two, but I'm pretty sure they have a tie back there.

Williams is/has been a D-3 power for a long time. In the 1980s and early 1990s Colby had an excellent team and had a great 3 point shooter (his name escapes me) who, I think due to Karl Fogel's ties with Colby and the Celtics got to go to their Free Agent camp at one point.

If you go back to the mid 1980s, Clark was a power in D-3 hoops under Wally Halas. They went to 4 or 5 D-3 Final Fours and lost a couple of championship games.

D-3 hoops in New England will always be strong with the NESCAC schools.

Don't know about Clark now.

Wally Halas is a friend of the family, so that's how I knew they were very good back then. I don't follow D-3 hoops at Clark any more.

Wasn't meant as an attack on Clark's ability today, but I don't think they've been to the Final Four at the D-3 level since the mid 1980s.

Paul Phillips took Clark to the Elite 8 each of the last two years and lost.
