FB: Middle Atlantic Conference

[splik]

youu have a point bill
if you mean joining a conference and ending the football program, I doubt that would happen.  Moravian and Susquehanna have been competitive too recently to ever do that.  Juniata has enough football alumni (aka Chuck Knox, who donated $1 million recently) to prevent that from happening, hopefully.  I think it helps that there is a conference claiming "academic superiority" in close geographic proximity, especially in the case of Moravian whose biggest rival is in the CC. 

You're also right, we'll all just wait and see in 2007 and beyond.

From what I hear (from a person who's close to the scene), further defections from the MAC can't be ruled out.

The audio highlight reel of last weekend's Delaware Valley-Susquehanna game is posted for those who are interested.

Also, don't forget that Del Val will have a BIG test with King's in town tomorrow.  The Monarchs have some very impressive numbers and are a desparation pass loss to Albright away from being right in the hunt for the title.

The game will be at www.sportsjuice.com starting at 1 PM.

Ok it's true...I plan on defecting from the MAC

[Warren Thompson]

bman:

Aha! Defecting from the MAC, are you? Doubtless to form an all-Amish athletic conference (likely name: "The Horse-and-Buggy League") ....

[bman]

That would be an interesting game to call...

Stoltzfus back to pass...he connects with...well um...Stoltzfus, and he goes for 4 yards before being tackled by ...Stoltzfus...and I think Lapp got an assist there....

bman:

And the leading coach in such a league likely would be named Othmar Huehnerschuetz ....

lycoming score?

[gordonmann]

Lyco up 7-3 in first half

[Lyco80]

Lycoming up 10-6 at the half.  Lycoming dominating play with 22 minutes of possession to Moravian's 8.  Moravian has only thirteen yards rushing in the first half.

C'mon Lyco - post some points - make the time count.

All the best.

[maninyellowhat]

Wow.  It's frustrating to control possession that much but keep the other team in the game.

[Lyco80]

Lycoming roughing the passer wipes out an INT and Moravian keeps the ball.

[Lyco80]

Moravian up 13-10, drive sustained by roughing the passer penalty and pass interference totaling 30 yards for the Greyhounds.

Ball to Lycoming . . .

[Lyco80]

3rd and 15 and big pass play to Brown for a first down . . .

[Lyco80]

Lycoming punt to the Moravian 8 yd line.

Let's Go Defense - turnover time.
