Quote from: stlawus on March 05, 2024, 02:50:03 PMEasy for me to say now but I had a feeling Oswego wouldn't get past the first weekend. Despite their record they didn't look like the every day buzz saw they were last year. Most of that can probably be attributed to having that glacier sized target on their backs after their incredible run last season. Williams is a team that matched up against them as well as any top team in the field with their stifling defense and penchant for making clutch shots. Oswego almost out dueled them in that regard. Either way, that's a disappointing end to their season especially since they started 4 fifth year players and brought a 6th year off the bench.New to the board, proud Cortland Alumn!I would not count out the Cortland Red Dragons to compete for the chance to win the SUNYAC just yet! They have 2 1st team guys returning in 6'4 guard/forward Kendall Arucri & 6'7 forward Aaron Coston next year along side senior pg Jaylen Warmack who led the SUNYAC in assists. It sucks to have both Brockport & Geneseo leave the league but I also believe Morrisville will be able to compete right away if they can retain majority of their roster. We all know Oswego will reload and Keith has done an incredible job at New Paltz so they will be in the mix. If Kevin Tabb returns to Plattsburgh I think they will also be competitive. All of this makes for an interesting 2024-2025 season, is it November yet? hahaha
They will lose a ton of scoring, rebounding and experience. Their bench is better than a lot of teams and Leone recruits well but I would not be shocked to see them take a step back on the national stage next year. Looking at the rest of the SUNYAC I don't foresee them taking a step back in league play, especially since New Paltz loses several key 5th years as well. I imagine Oswego and Brockport will battle it out as usual but with Morrisville now added to the mix they could certainly have something to say.
edit: of course, forgot that Brockport moved conferences. Remembered the Morrsiville move right but not the Port
