Must win game tonight for Oglethorpe. Have played well. Even better than many have expected but need a win over a top quality opponent to gather momemtum for conference tournament.  Looking forward to being courtside tonight and hope for big crowd.

Avant plays at another level. Fun to watch her.

Oglethorpe named new assistant yesterday.  Alex Richey 2011 graduate.  One of Oglethorpes three 1000 point scores from that class.

All assistants are Oglethorpe graduates.

Oglethorpe gets a split ending an emotional weekend.  Hard to get a win on the road on a Sunday.  Centres struggles at the end mirrored the Petrels finish last Sunday in Birmingham.  Up by 7 with time winding down and could not finish.
Four good teams on the eastern side.

Oglethorpe wins on  the road by 11 at Rhodes. Hopefully a tough non conference schedule will help them during the coming weeks. Doubles doubles by Todd Ward  13 and 13 and Alex Richey 15 and 11.
Schedule gets tougher on Sunday.

Nice observation. I don't think Todd is all the way back. He had a little scare wi5th that ankle against Rhodes and then took a  shot to the face.  Not to worry.... he still has his explosive moments. 
Oglethorpe has a bit more depth this year and enough weapons that it has been someone different each night. As I said before, David Allison back at the point has changed the tone. This weekend is big. If you want to be considered an elite club, you have to beat the teams that have been the benchmarks.
I thought that Rhodes played effective interior defense.  They controlled tempo.
I won't be shocked at all if they knock off Birmingham Southern this coming weekend. I enjoy watching BSC. The substitution pattern works for me. Any time that Aaron Parr spends sitting down works for the opposition.

the rhodes-oglethorpe game was an excellent college basketball game. the rhodes synopsis... while entertaining,  left a couple of points out.
everyone knows that ogelthorpe plays a lot of zone. sometimes it seems that defense is an afterthought. it leads to not having the same number of fouls as a team that plays man to man.
while it is true that rhodes committed 13 fouls to oglethorpes 8.... four of those fouls were in the final 90 seconds. hence the wide disparity in free throws as we hit 8 in that time period.
more importantly... in a four guard offense, oglethorpe had 8 turnovers while rhodes had 16.   rhodes struggled from the field shooting 2 for 19 from outside the line. that happens on a sunday road game.
oglethorpe is playing pretty well now that david allison has returned. the win ovr birmingham southern was a lot of fun.  pinholster court was packed. bsc has a lot of atlanta connctions on its roster.

reports on the demise of oglethorpe after the graduation of so many stellar players might have been a bit premature. coach has had an excellent recruiting class and opened up with a nice win over emory to open the season. young teams have growing pains but the good news is that by february, they won't be rookies anymore.  riley cerrone is going to turn heads.

Good afternoon.  Berry has beautiful facilities and has always fielded solid athletic teams in a variety of sports.  Academically.. they fit the profile of an SCAC member.
If trhere travel budget permits... I see it as a natural fit. I have been hearing that they were interested in joining for a couple of years.  More power to them.  They would be a natural rival for Oglethorpe. 
I would appreciate any insight from posters as to how they think DePauw and Centre shape up for the upcoming season. Thanks.
