Just a few notes before tomorrow's NCAA Tournament quarterfinal between No. 2 Penn and Boston University.

*Read my preview here and a feature on the senior class here.

*Tomorrow's 1 p.m. game will be played at Drexel's Vidas Field due to graduation setup at Franklin Field. However, Vidas does not have any internet connections, so I won't be able to do my live blog updates (I'm sure the NCAA won't mind, though). So what I'll do is type up game notes offline, and then as soon as I get a chance, I'll post them. So while you won't get live updates, you will get a rough goal-by-goal account later Saturday.

Then sometime Sunday, maybe Monday, I'll post a full recap with quotes.

*With only eight teams left in the tournament, clearly every game is important. But looking at the NCAA bracket, two of the three other games should interest Quaker fans.

The first one of course is the game in Penn's half of the bracket: Duke at No. 3 Maryland. Duke might be unseeded, but the Blue Devils did give the Terrapins one of their two losses on the season. First draw is at 1pm.

The other is at the top of the bracket. While the winner of game wouldn't face Penn until the finals, it does pit two of Penn's most familiar -- and disliked -- opponents: Northwestern and Princeton. The No. 8 Tigers will travel to the Wildcats, who are the top seed in the tournament. The game is slated to start at 2pm ET.

The third matchup, while not as interesting for Quaker fans as the others, sees No. 5 Syracuse hosting unseeded North Carolina. The Tar Heels upset No. 4 Virginia in the first round. The game also will start at 1pm.
