Men's Basketball

(9–14, 7–11 MIAC)— As of Wednesday, Feb 19. Please check tonight's result.
 

The Scots lost a tough 81–73 game against Hamline Wednesday night, dashing any hopes of a place in the MIAC playoffs. Had they won, they had a slim chance of a spot in the playoffs, provided they won again in the regular season finale Saturday. Sadly, Hamline will be battling for the empty berth instead.

The Scots also suffered a heartbreaking 70–69 loss against St. Olaf last Saturday, which made Wednesday's game all the more important. In happier news, Patrick Russell '03, set a new point record, beating the 1,529 points set by Gerald Dreier '57 and securing his place in Macalester men's basketball history.

Mac plays their last game of the season tomorrow, Feb 22, at St. John's. This will be the last collegiate game for Seniors Patrick Russell, Luke Friedrich, Greg Klancher and Kevin Varpness.
