Tonight's regular conference season game schedule, all games 5:00 p.m.:

Pomona (5-17, 1-12) @ Claremont (15-9, 6-7)
Cal Lutheran (18-6, 10-3) @ Whittier (13-11, 6-7)
Redlands (19-5, 11-2) @ Oxy (20-4, 12-1)
Caltech (6-18, 2-11) @ La Verne (11-13, 4-9)

Oxy has clinched the No. 1 seed in the 4-team SCIAC tournament and will play either Claremont or Whittier in the semifinals. If Redlands beats Oxy, the Bulldogs will get a share of the conference title, clinch the No. 2 seed, and get a home game against Cal Lutheran in the conference tournament semifinals.

Best wishes to Redlands in the postseason. Represent the S.C.I.A.C. well. Both Redlands and Occidental should contend next year, along with Cal Lutheran.

OxyBob,

Were you able to make the semifinals or finals? Firsthand impressions? Sounds like the young ladies on all the teams competed every second.

Fierce When Roused

Congratulations to Courtney Carroll of the University of Redlands for her selection to the 2010 D3 Women's Basketball All-American Third Team. I am well aware that the competition must have been fierce, but I believe the 2009 - 2010 S.C.I.A.C. season showcased at least one or two more players worthy of selection.

Early season action for the 2010-11 season has begun. Redlands, Cal Lutheran, and Occidental have to be considered the favorites. Redlands and Cal Lutheran have played some ranked opponents in the preseason and have kept pace.

Oxy women continue the fight . . . from the Oxy website, GO TIGERS:

Tigers shut down CMS


LOS ANGELES, Calif. – Led by Katelyn Rowe's double-double and a stellar defensive effort the Black and Orange rolled to a 20 point victory over Claremont-Mudd-Scripps in tonight's Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference game.

The Tigers smothering defense allowed only five baskets in the first half.  Holding CMS to just 12.1% (4-33) from the field while surrendering only 15 first half points en route to a 17 point lead at intermission.

Oxy was again efficient on the offensive end (handing out 17 dimes on 24 baskets), jumping out to a seven point lead over the first six minutes of the ball game before the Athenas scored their first basket.  CMS did make it interesting early, as they were able to cut the lead to four (13-9), but the Tigers responded with a 19-6 run to end the half.  Oxy led from start to finish tonight, while the Athenas never found there rhythm on the offensive end.  Improving in the second half slightly (28%) from the field but it wasn't nearly enough to turn the tide on this night.

The Black and Orange's 67-47 victory was fueled by the dominating interior play of Rowe (14 points and, a game high, 13 rebounds and three blocked shots) and Makenzie Brandon (19 points, a game high five assists and nine boards).  The Tigers dominated the glass, out rebounding CMS 52-33.

Laura Mohler chipped in with 10 points, one of 11 Tigers who scored at least one point tonight, as all 15 members of the squad saw action.

Frannie Hemmelgarn led CMS (15-5, 5-4) with 11 points while still recovering from a knee injury she suffered during a clash with the Whittier Poets.  Her squad is now tied for fourth with Cal Lutheran and Whittier for the final SCIAC playoff spot.

The Tigers (12-8, 7-2) kept pace with the University of Redlands (13-7, 7-2) who also won tonight, 68-31 over Caltech.  Both squads still sit atop the conference with identical 7-2 records, with the University of La Verne in third place at 6-3.

Oxy will travel this coming Thursday, February 10th, to face those third place Leopards with tip off scheduled for 7:30pm.

I watched Oxy's "YOUNG" Lady Tiger team control Chapman in Orange earlier this season. They are a very well coached team and did not succumb to Chapman's full court, high pressure defense. They are a young team that is blossoming quickly. If not this year, they will definitely be a team to reckon with in the future. I wish them the best of luck, and am following them closely now.

Oxy won the regular season SCIAC title. The No. 1-seeded Tigers (17-8, 12-2 SCIAC) will host No. 4 seed La Verne (12-13, 9-5) in one semifinal of the SCIAC tournament. In the other game, No. 2 seed Redlands (16-9, 10-4) will host No. 3 seed Claremont (19-6, 9-5). The winners play Saturday for the conference AQ; highest remaining seed will host the final.

The schedule on the SCIAC web site says that the semifinal games begin at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. How they expect fans to get to a game at 5:00 p.m. on a Friday evening is anyone's guess.

#149
D3 Indy Tourney at Dallas, no automatic bid:

Game 1 Nebraska Wes 83-47 over UDallas
Game 2 Chapman 70-51 over UCSC

Chapman vs Neb Wes Saturday for Championship.
Note: Neb Wes handed Chapman a loss earlier this season.
Neb Wes record is deceiving as they play several NAIA teams up in the midwest.
