Congratulations on a great career to the Oglethorpe seniors.  Everyone in Petrel Nation is so proud of all that you have accomplished!

Also of note, Coach Sattele was name Women's College Basketball Coach of the Year for the state of Georgia for all levels, and Katie Kulavic was named Georgia Women's College Basketball Player of the Year for all levels by the Atlanta Tipoff Club.
Congrats to all of the SCAC postseason award winners.

Oglethorpe holds a narrow 4 point at the half.  After shooting the ball extremely poorly in the opening 10-15 minutes, they finally started to get going in the last 5 minutes.

Congratulations to the new conference champions - Stormy Petrels!!! 
All-tournament team: Krista Prado-Matthews and Danielle Hubenak from TU and Katie Kulavic, Anna Findley, and Tina Grace from OU.
Great all-around effort from the Petrels with Grace pulling out a double-double (18pts, 10 rebounds).  Findley poured in 27 points, and Kulavic had 24.  Richmann pulled down 15 rebounds. 
For Trinity, Hubenak had 21 pts and 8 rebounds.  Marzella added 17 points.  KPM was held to 10 points and 5 rebounds.

I know that Coach Sattele is the last one to want personal recognition.  He is very much a team player, but seriously, what do you want from him???  How does he not deserve COTY at least once in the last 4 years.  The turnaround he made with OU when this group of girls were freshmen was easily as impressive if not more so than what the Centre coach has done this year.  I'm not trying to take anything away from her.  She has done a great job of turning that program back around, but Sattele has had more success turning a program around than she has.  Centre was a powerhouse in the conference several years ago.  OU never was before Sattele.  I'm sure he would much rather have a conference championship and a good run in the NCAAs, though!  Go petrels!

Should be an interesting night in the SCAC with the #1s and #2s matching up in each side of the division.  Good luck to the Petrels tonight at DePauw!

Kulavic passes Francouer as the all-time leading scorer in OU history tonight in Oglethorpe's win over Rhodes.  Congrats to Katie and all of the seniors on that team who have helped to make that happen.  What a great career that senior class has had.

Anyone know anything about Tina Grace for OU?  She hasn't played in a while.  I have heard that she is injured but nothing else.

When do the first regional rankings come out?

Looks like a rough start for Oglethorpe as Trinity has them down 39-25 at the half.  OU is shooting only 22% for the first half compared to 47% for Trinity.  Though Oglethorpe is leading the rebounding and turnover statistics, it is hard to win a game shooting 22%.  We'll see what the second half has to offer.

Did anyone see the Oglethorpe/Emory game tonight?  Would love to hear a recap.

Is the loss of Jenna Fernandez making that big of a difference, or is DePauw down some this year?  Maybe it is just early season fluke losses.  Still looking forward to the OU/DPU matchup next weekend.

Congrats to DePauw - SCAC champs. 
Sounds like it was a great game again.

And congrats to all of the all-tournament performers. 

Yeah, you're right.  He didn't do what Kris Huffman did this year, and he probably didn't deserve to win COTY this year.  I think the point everyone is making is that he did deserve to receive votes if the coaches of 4 other teams that didn't do what he did received  votes.

I have felt for 3 years now that Sattele has deserved to receive some kind of recognition for turning Oglethorpe around.  He took a sub-500 team and turned the program into what should be 3 straight NCAA tournament appearances, and he has not been mentioned as a potential coach of the year candidate.  Don't get me wrong, I understand that what Kris Huffman does at DePauw year-in and year-out is outstanding, but something should be said for being able to turn a program around in the fashion that Sattele did, whether you like the man or not.
