York opened its new Grumbacher Sport and Fitness today.  It is simply amazing.  It puts York right at the top of facilities in the conference, and in the region.  It will be interesting to see if the basketball team has the same success in its new arena.

Right now I think York is a close second in most sports to Salisbury if not better in some.

Just because Catholic isnt very good at many other sports, there are boards for other sports.  I agree with Pat.  All he is trying to do is get more exposure for the spring athletes/sports.

Both York and Salisbury finished ranked in the top 25 this year in Mens soccer.  Salisbury loses a lot of players but York only loses 3-4 so they should be good again next year. 

York's Golf team is also very good, but not well known around campus.

Any word on the York score?

I'm shocked at the result tonight at York.  I was in attendance and York just needed to make free throws and they most likely win the game.  Unfortunate outcome but they need to refocus for the NCAA tourny because they can make a run.  They need to play better defense because Salisbury had way too many easy layups tonight.

I think it will be important to let the starters build an early lead and then rest them.  With the way Goucher has been playing as of late, it's important that the Spartans do not let them hang around because then it could be a long night.  Look forward to a good one tomorrow.  Hopefully the Spartans do cruise to a victory and let some of their bench guys get some playoff experience.  Goodluck to all teams tomorrow night.

Any predictions on the 1st round games set up for Tuesday?

Ok, maybe WVYC isnt weak, but Dayv4life is weak.  I actually listen to WVYC everytime I can get to the homes games.  Keep up the good work guys.

WVYC is weak.  Come on Dayvlife4 how am I suppose to listen to the game up here in York if you cant get your equipment to work.  Anyone have any updates from the game?

First things first before we start talking about York repeating.  They need to take care of business tonight on Senior night against Gally to secure homecourt for the CAC playoffs, then worry about the tournament.  If Gally comes in and beats them tonight they will need to win at Mary Washington where they havent won since 2001-2002 season.  Goodluck tonight boys!

I dont think its fair that to say that York is overated because of what happened at the Final four last year.  No one was beating Stevens point no matter what because they were that good.  As for the other teams Rochester (national runner up), practically needed a buzzer beating three pointer to get past Calvin.  Then York fell in the third place game (which are always hard to play in, at any level) to Calvin who made 13 three pointers.  Returning 5 of you tope 6 players is reason enough to be ranked highly in the preseaon polls, and they have not dissappointed yet, with their only 2 losses being on a made buzzer beater (Salisbury) and missed buzzer beater (Catholic).

And regarding their schedule they have played most of the top teams in the region.  They have beaten Ursinus (#3 in region), split with Catholic (#7) and beat Messiah (#8).  They beat Albright @ Albright (made the NCAA tourny last year) by 18 early in the year.  Since it is so hard to travel in division III they are trying to schedule the best teams in the region, and thus far been able to beat all but Catholic.  Its not their fault that they play in a somewhat weaker conference (depending on the year) compared to others accross the country.  They just play the schedule they were given and have been successful so far.

i like the idea of fouling when up by 3 at the end of the game.  sounds like all Mary Washington needed to do was grab one rebound and it would have worked.  I agree that if York gets to host it would be rowdy.  Very tough gym to come in and play at.  Hopefully York can get 2 wins this week against two very good teams in Gally and Mary Washington.  Good luck to all this week.

Want2B, how can you leave McGowen off of the first team.  He has been dominating this year so far, especially since Bushey was injured at the beginning of the year.

Huge game tonight in York, Spartans by 7 in the end.
