Rainbow Wahine Classic

[schooner2]

Well, noone seems capable of producing a full tourney bracket for the Rainbow Wahine Classic. So, after visiting all 8 athletic sites for each team in the Classic, this is what I've come up with (still very incomplete):

- All times have been converted to CST
Friday the 29th
1)North Carolina vs DePaul - 4:30 pm
2)Oklahoma vs Fordham - 6:40 pm
3)Hawaii vs Gonzaga 8:50 pm
4)UCONN vs Denver 11 pm

Saturday the 30th
Winners game 1 and 2 - 5 pm (guessing on the time)
Winners game 3 and 4 - 7:20 pm (very sure about this time)

I would assume losers of 1 and 2 square off and losers of 3 and 4 square off - who knows what time.

Sunday the 1st
Championship game - don't know what time

Three other games on Sunday between both 0-2 teams and two other games between 1-1 teams. Again no clue what the times would be.

Okay, I just found an August 27th article in the Honolulu Star-Bulletin with more info:

Already listed Friday games above.

Again all times are Central Standard Time
For Saturday:
5) Hawaii-Gonzaga winner vs. Connecticut-Denver winner, 3 p.m.
6) North Carolina-DePaul loser vs. Oklahoma-Fordham loser, 5:10 p.m.
7) Hawaii-Gonzaga loser vs. Connecticut-Denver loser, 7:20 p.m.
8) North Carolina-DePaul winner vs. Oklahoma-Fordham winner, 9:30 p.m.

For Sunday, Dec. 1:
Seventh place, 3 p.m. - Game 6 loser vs Game 7 loser
Fifth place, 5:10 p.m. - Game 6 winner vs Game 7 winner
Third place, 7:20 p.m. - Game 5 loser vs Game 8 loser
Championship, 9:30 p.m. - Game 5 winner vs Game 8 winner

Is it just me, or does the timing look sort of screwy?

You have the Uconn-Denver winner, playing at 8 pm local time rewarded for winning by playing the 12 pm game the very next day.
Yet the winner of the other 2 games gets off until the last game the next night. Just seems like a screwed up way to do it.
Provided Uconn wins their first game, I can't help but feel for those girls (being on EST clocks), playing that soon the next day. I don't care how high a level athlete they are, that's tough on the body!

I pulled a bracket off Hawaii's website last week........

it's a pdf file, with the link at the top of Hawaii's page....
Hawaii is 4 hours behind central time...

Hawaii has dibs on both the 11 am game Saturday and the 5:30 game Sunday. (Hawaii times) That is regardless of who wins/who loses. The championship is slated for the 5:30 timeslot, but if Hawaii is not in the championship, then it moves to the 3:20 timeslot.....I think.
