Corporal Hicks makes a good point in that the Mules should absolutely have a second representative on the all conference squad. I cant help but to figure the wreckless reporting of crazed centennial fan Hank Mardukas may have effected Mules senior PG matt gnias getting rewarded. While it was widely disputed and eventually proven false id assume the sour taste of a juul suspension (not true, grrr Hank) resignated in voters heads.
Also as noted in the past Im as big of a McClary (didnt know his middle name was fitzgerald though) advocate as you can find but I just cant see him roaming the side lines in the Tarble Pavilion of Swarthmore. I cant help but to be inspired by Jim Calhouns ability to take an all girls school and turn it into a successful mens program within 3 years. McClary is a builder not a manager. The only way he comes back to the D3 ranks in my eyes is if he takes the helm at Bryn Mawr, a predominately all girls school sans a few guys. With the proper resources and backing McClary can give the Cent another run from an underdog position, one he has thrived in. Now I know what youre gonna say "Oh Hopkinsnest7 youre insane for comparing McClary to a guy who won 3 titles in Division 1." and you may have a point, probably not, but if Kemba Walker walked through the doors and played in the Mule barn in 2011 they probably would have won the title too. Its a circumstantial result really.
My girlfriend asked me to stop blogging this season so we could raise our son (not a girl dad) so I admit I am a little behind on my Centennial personnel this year. But upon looking through the stats listed on the Centennial website (good job Dave assuming you designed it, looks great and easy to navigate) here are my favorite players.
1. Avery Close- really cool name 11.6 ppg.
2. Nick Lord- really cool name
3. R. Hughes (ursinus)- efficient 18.2 ppg must have had a good year
4. Dallas Hoffman (Mules)- anyone name after a city make this list in my book (9 steals in conference play this season)
Good to be back and looking forward to a Swarthmore run this season, Landry has those guys focused id assume.
