Brian VanOchten Likes the Calvin Women's Chances of Getting Some NCAA Hardware

Just passing on an interesting link from MLive.com. GR Press sports writer Brian VanOchten listed the potential for a Calvin Women's run as his number one college basketball storyline to watch this season. Check it out:



Hope College is set to host the NCAA Division III Final Four in women’s basketball at spectacular DeVos Fieldhouse in Holland on March 16-17, 2012, and there’s a fighting chance a local team reaches the national semifinals. Except, it’s not the host school that has the best shot to get there.

Calvin College is poised to make a run at the national title.


In my opinion, one of the biggest roadblocks for Calvin as they attempt a deep tournament run is the University of Chicago. They knocked out the Knights last year in the second round, and they're bringing back the majority of their major contributors as well. With the two schools being relatively close in proximity, there's a decent to good chance that they'd meet before the Final Four.
