Game Scores and Details From
Thursday, 11/29/00--(Dec. 1, 2000)

These scores and game details are far from complete, but they're what we've managed to cobble together from what folks have sent us and from the data that's been published both in print and online from today's local papers.   We are missing some game details and we'll try to get them during the rest of the day.  Likewise, if you know of a game we've missed send it in to us either by e-mail or by posting it on the message board where we're sure to see it.

For those interested in just the scores, we've listed them first.  Where we have been able to get box scores and details, they are shown starting here (and by scrolling down from there).
