I moved to Weatherford, TX from Georgia at the end of the season last year. My son played at LaGrange College. Now I'm looking forward to some Texas D-III football. I imagine I'll catch some of the games in Abilene and maybe make it down for a UHMB game as well.

Go LaGrange Panthers!

Won't be with you except in spirit, but y'all will always have a special place in my heart. It was a great four years watching the founding team develop, win a conference championship, and bond as friends.

Good job, Jason!

Huntingdon/LaGrange has the makings of a great rivalry!

No doubt.  I am really looking forward to seeing how this game plays out.

I believe the Panthers have had this game in the back of their minds all season. Hope it's a good one.

Congrats to HC and LC on their homecoming wins over a couple northern sliackers.

HC is sure having a great season. Hope our guys go into Montgomery ready to play. I'll see you there!

Saw a Rhodes College sweatshirt at the LaGrange--Eureka game on Saturday.

If you like basketball, there are some closer teams to watch.

Good thought. I should try to take in some basketball games. And I'll be there for this year's basketball season. Any recommendations?

Pumkinattack: My son is a senior at LaGrange--he's been with them for all four seasons. I am fairly certain they will find another conference, but the sliackers pulled a fast one late in the game and they had to scramble to even put together a full schedule, let alone get into a conference.

Still you can see some good football there--though not of Wesley's caliber, yet. Final home game is this Saturday. It's a nice stadium and plenty of parking with good tailgating.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. By the way, I'm a Tech fan too.

Come and take in the game.

Well, LaGrange finally looked more like last year's team than one from the 0-20 days. It was a sweet victory over a former sliac team. Now a long road trip to Peoria this weekend.

Sure wish the same team had shown up to play Wesley. Anybody know if LaGrange is going up to Wesley next year?

Good luck to all your teams.

Let me know if I missed any on the map and I'll add them.

Here's a map I made:

If you see somebody at a game with a LaGrange College cap or shirt at a game next year, it might be me 

LaGrange College beat DII Lincoln University (Jefferson City, MO) 20-7 yesterday.

OK. LC Got the DII monkey off their back. LC beat Lincoln University (Jefferson City, MO) 20-7 yesterday. That was a long trip

Blackburn just "stepped" in it" last spring.  They "zagged" when they should have "zigged".

Hate to be bitter, but I hope all of those sliac-kers who bailed on the conference get burned. They deserve sanctions for the incredibly unprofessional manner with which they handled the situation.

Ralph: That was pretty interesting. Thanks for sharing.

 Marcus Wilson's first half interception was absolutely incredible.  A LaGrange guy next to me said that it was the most athletic intereception he had seen at any level this year.  Marcus jumped right over the reciever to catch the ball on the other side.  Amazing. I wish you could of seen it.  He literally looked like superman there for a moment. ...

The LaGrange folks were really friendly down there, by the way.

That was an amazing pick. Surely would have been the play of the day if it had been televised. Glad to hear you were treated well here.

Our boys have a long bus ride to Jefferson City, MO to play DII Lincoln University. Hope they find a way to shake off whatever's ailing them. With 21 returning starters they should be playing a whole lot better.
