Oglethorpe Blows by Piedmont 91-67!!!
The two-line write-up of the game in the AJC this morning lists the final as 71-67. Typical crackerjack reporting by our local ragsheet.

Oglethorpe hangs tought with Georgia State and loses a nailbighter 85-80. The Petrels led at the half as well as most of the game to see it slip in the last minutes. Alex Richey was hot from 3 scoring a game high 32 points (8-13 from 3). The Petrel's gave 110% and are a much improved team from last year. I don't want to come out and predict that they'll win conference but they will definitely be in the mix!
Go Petrels!

I've been told no football in the works at Oglethorpe but lacrosse is a possibility.

The AJC does a terrible job covering any college in this state that is not Georgia Tech or the University of Georgia. The AJC seems to overlook the smaller schools. I don't know why. It's not as if they are a major news publication, they may want to be but they're not. High School athletics, especially football, gets more coverage than the smaller colleges in Georgia. It's a shame.This weekend's sectional games got no mention in the Saturday or Sunday papers - two lines were devoted to Saturday's win in this morning's AJC.
Anyhoo...
Congrats to the ladies - keep rolling in the Finals!

Ralph,
Kulavic is more of 3 in my opinion. Hannah Brooks would be considered Oglethorpe's point guard, Findley is definitley their 2 guard. Kulavic handles the ball a lot but is not their point guard. Additionally, there is Corbett in the starting line-up and she is somewhere between the 2 and 3 position as well. That's if you want to classify their guards in a classic sense, however, I just like to think they play with 4 guards. I don't know if that helps you at all.

Oglethorpe made the biggest gain in the Top 25 this week moving up 6 places to #19, the highest ranking in program history! With games against Methodist, Roanoke, and Wilmington on the horizon I see 2 victories leading up the matchup with Wilmington (a rematch of the first round of the NCAA tournament last year) Hopefully the results will be different.

On a side note... I'd like to say this was the worst reffed game ever... and it went both ways. Emory was whistled for 35 fouls while Oglethorpe only managed 28... 63 total fouls! It's amazing only 1 person fouled out. I know I haven't seen every game ever played... but this had both teams griping from the get go as both teams were in the double bonus at the 9:47 mark.

Oglethorpe destroyed a Piedmont team yesterday that made the national tournament last year, 86-67 I think. Oglethorpe was up by as many as 30 (74-44) before Piedmont went on a lil run with some bench players in. With the win OU improves to 3-0 and in the latest poll they moved up to a tie for 27th. The ladies are playing well but still are a ways away from playing up to their potential. Keep it up!

I noticed that you mentioned BSC being near a bad part of town. Isn't every good liberal arts school located near the ghetto? I'm pretty sure it's the measuring stick.

Ogelthorpe - Near College Park...
It just seems that since these schools are all so old, a majority of them were in once thriving communities that have now suffered since the Suburbanization of the past few decades. The one exception. Sewanee. Let's just face it, it's in the middle of nowhere.
