AndOne-

Thanks for your reply.  While I don't know all the details, I can assure you that conditions 1 and 2 of your suggested punishments have been met. I can't say about #3.
I did look at the "Exceptional..." statement and I read it as stating that teams and individuals that perform well on the field will be supported and afforded the opportunity for postseason play.

I admit to ignorance in this case and am really only talking about it philosophically.   I have no idea what, if any, mitigating circumstances there might be or who was responsible for what.   Thanks to those who have given more insight into this unfortunate situation.

Whatever happens to those young men I hope they learn a valuable life lesson in all of this and are able to rebound from it better people.  Everyone deserves a second chance.  If it isn't at CLU, hopefully they don't have to give up their dreams on the hardwood and someone else will give them a chance.

Just wondering if anyone has noticed that none of the 3 are on the roster that is posted on the CLU web-page......

This might lay this whole topic to rest....

What's the possibility of Cal Who keeping the kids names off the roster until the season starts and when all of this controversy has melted down?

Btw, don't forget to catch Quantum Hoops, staring the one and only 06-07 beavs. Special guest appearances by the SCIAC teams and of course Scandii, O-bob, the tooth and others who can be seen going wild and cheering for the beaves opposing teams.

Sweet. I'm gonna have to get one of those "License to Sin Boldly" cards for my wallet, just in case one of the old ladies from my church ever gets wind of the fact that I've been known to keep a six-pack or two of Goose Island Honker's Ale in my fridge.

Illinois Wesleyan plays at Oxy and CMS this year.  I'm wondering if any SCIAC fans can fill me in on what each team returns, etc. this year.

Much appreciated.

Illinois Wesleyan plays at Oxy and CMS this year.  I'm wondering if any SCIAC fans can fill me in on what each team returns, etc. this year.

Last season Oxy started 4 seniors and a junior. The Tigers graduated their 1, 3, 4 and 5, including center Sam Betty, the SCIAC Player of the Year, power forward Nick Mills, who was 2nd team all-SCIAC, and their floor leader and inspiration to the team Justin Zebb. Oxy returns guard Connor Whitman, who was 1st team all-SCIAC and was ranked 7th in D-III in 3-pt. FG%. Other stand-out players for Oxy are guards Huston Conti and Jordan Schultz, and forwards Henry Meier and Chris Pitcher. I'm not sure what transfers and freshmen head coach Brian Newhall is bringing in.

Thank you, OxyBob.

Regarding CMS, per their site, junior Mani Maceira (19.5 ppg, 5.3 rpg) was a 1st Team All-SCIAC selection in 2007.  I don't see him on the 2007-08 roster though...

Anyone know the deal there?

Any La Verne posters in here?  The Leopards are heading up the Pacific Northwest to play the Loggers on opening weekend...Nov 17th.  I was hoping to get a little info on them for the upcoming year.  It seemed like they gave the Logs quite a scare last year at their place.

If no La Verne posters, can anyone else give an update?

[Browneagle64]

Logs:

One thing for sure, The Leo's have a new coach this year. Not too sure how the team will be this year, as they ended their year on a bad note in SCIAC play.

Just FYI here's some info about ULV and first year Leo H.C .Reed being invited to the the 1st ever legends classic in Nor. Cal

ULV To Meet UC Davis In Legends Classic (09-30-2007)


The University of La Verne has learned that it will take part in this year's inaugural Legends Classic tournament and will meet Division I member UC Davis on the road on November 11.

La Verne is one of just two Division III schools in the Legends Classic along with UC Santa Cruz.

"We are excited for the opportunity to participate in such a prestigious event," said first-year Leopard head coach Rich Reed. "Our program is committed to playing top-notch talent and we look forward to the challenge."

UC Davis is coached by ULV alum and former Leopard coach Gary Stewart. Stewart graduated from La Verne in 1984 following a highly distinguished playing career. He remains the only ULV men's basketball coach in school history to lead his team to a conference title or a berth in the NCAA Division III Championships.

"UC Davis is a well-run program," added Reed. "We have tremendous respect for Coach Stewart, his program and for all that he's accomplished."

The contest is officially an exhibition game for the Leopards while it serves as a regular-season outing for the Aggies. ULV officially begins its regular season at the Puget Sound Tip-Off Classic November 16-17 in Tacoma, WA. The Leopards face Warner Pacific in the tournament opener on November 16 before facing Puget Sound the following day on November 17.

To everyone on the Quantum Hoops email list:

The moment has arrived.  Quantum Hoops will be
premiering today at the Laemmle One Colorado Theater
in Pasadena and running for at least one week.

I'm also excited to announce that our new narrator is
none other than David Duchovny of "X-Files" fame. 

We have had some great articles and reviews this week
and you may have heard the coach or I on the radio a
few times as well.  I'm hoping for as big a turn-out
as possible, so please feel free to forward this info
to anybody you think would be interested - especially
to the other members of SCIAC who may not know.

Show times are daily: 1:10 3:15 5:20 7:40 9:55

FYI - Oxy opens with an exhibition tilt against DI USD in San Diego Sunday afternoon. In addition to OB's roster synopsis, look for contributions this campaign from Gyan Alexander, returning guard who sat out last year due to injury, and Chris Hunt, who has worked his way up the roster in this, his senior year. 

[Howlinwolf]

Oxy held its own in today's exhibition affair against DI U of San Diego, falling 71-62 at USD. Connor Whitman scorched the nets for 24 points. Oxy was done by four at the half.

OB,

The slim margin of victory (or loss) could be because the game was played at the Jenny Craig Pavilion.
