I can't get a real read on the AMCC, but I think Point Park could fit in fairly well.

I do think the PAC wants football schools as well. That's why they reached for Thomas More.

Bethany beats d2 Wheeling Jesuit 71-70 tonight to improve to 3-3.  Wheeling Jesuit won their conference last year and made it to the d2 ncaa tourny.  What a rollar coaster ride for this team early in the year.

[Coach C]

Well at this point, I would have to say that Lincoln looks a lot like a top 25 team.

Agreed Coach C!!

Coach C:

Thanks for your endorsement for Lincoln's top 25 bid    .

Thanks to Mark Simon from dehoops on an excellent article on the Lincoln Lions on the "Around The Nation" section.  Coach Yuille has done a marvelous job in two years taking over for previous coach Robert Byars.  It's also great that Coach Yuille is an alum, and has that extra Lincoln pride to exhort the troops on.

Mark, thanks for the info on the two transfers.  Many people may not realize that Temple's John Chaney started his collegiate coaching at Cheyney before moving on to Temple.  Chaney and C. Vivian Stringer (Rutgers Women BB) were at Cheyney at the same time.  During those days Cheyney use to beat up on Lincoln all the time.  It's good to see Chaney helping out the Lions  .

It was also good to see the attendance of approximately 1500 at the R-MC game.  Hopefully the Coach Yuille will start a Basketball tradition akin to Coach Jones Track & Field program, where the Lion "Tracksters" (Men & Women) have won 16 DIII championships.

Good Lions, and keep the momentum up for the season.

Lion, I don't know how LU stacks up with the rest of the nation in hoops this year, but their track program is off the charts, tops in the country in my opinion.  Especially, with there T PHI T track fraternity.  That was a nice article by Mark.

Thanks for your comments on Lincoln's Track Legacy, It is something the we are very proud of, and hopefully, Coach Yuille has the Basketball team moving in that direction.  So far the Lions are 7-1, including today's win.

I just found out that Lincoln has won the Roger Taylor Tournament at NC Wesleyan in Rocky Mount, NC.  The Lions beat DII Chowan last night 102-92 in the first round.  Chowan is the third DII program this year that Lincoln has beaten.  Kyle Myrick had 35 pts. and Darryl White had 17 pts. & 11 boards.

Today Lincon beat host NC Wesleyan 113-76 in the championship game.  Kyle Myrick finished with 41 pts. on 16 of 32 shots.  Sami Wylie had 27 pts., and Darryl White had 11 rebs.  Lincoln as a team shot 56 percent from the floor.

Lion, it's good to see LU basketball doing so well.  I believe your next challenge will be against Christopher Newport.  They're usually good year in and year out.  Are you sure Chowan is DII?  Cause, we played them last year in a tournament in Myrtle Beach, SC.  I could've sworn they were a DIII school.  Good Luck on the rest of the season, and finding teams to play.  Looks like DIII's on the east coast are scared to play you guys at your place.  Myrick seems to be one hell of a player!  Is he running the point?

I think Chowan's in the transition phase from D3 to D2.

[hopefan]

The question about Chowan came up earlier so I double checked  - They are definitely listed as a Pool B entrant in the 2006 DIII Men's Basketball Championship Handbook.

Thanks for the information on Chowan's divisional status.  I got the DII information from Chowan's website that referenced DII Football and Basketball.

[Pat Coleman]

They have scholarship athletes this year. Although the NCAA considers them D-III until they are eligible for the D-II playoffs, we don't consider them Division III or cover them on the Web sites.

[Coach C]

Pat -

You are to be commended for taking a stand hwere the NCAA is gutless.
