Long time reader, first time poster.  Just wanted to jump on here and give Gene Knight a shout out. All injuries are terrible, but to see a guy like him get carted off was tough to see. Here's hoping he has a quick and speedy recovery.

Well said!

Good to meet PA_Wesleyfan and Teamski Saturday.

Such a beautiful day Saturday I never saw a snowball in the forecast - but that snowball started quickly at the game (21 points on five offensive plays).

Best of luck this year - and speedy recovery to Gene Knight

It was a pleasure meeting you for once!  Good luck to the Builders for the rest of the year.

spent the weekend in bridgewater with stone station.  heard the score and was hoping that wesley did not run it up.  after seeing the box score it looks like they did what they could not to. only 13 passes with sottilaire only throwing 11 was good to see.  seeing what nnasid posted also gave me an idea of what happened.  i will finally get to see the team again this weekend for homecoming.  bridgewater folk said that south va is not very good so the game could be ugly.  i hope wesley keeps tightening things up as the playoffs near.  having only 3 games left may hurt for prep but will help keep players healthy.  the south will have to go through wesley this year unless they get shipped to the east.  hope not.  see you all on saturday.

Good to finally meet you too.  Hope you had a good trip back down 13.

There was no running up of the score. The second team played some of the second quarter and I would have to say that I don't ever remember seeing 4th and 5th team players getting so much time in a game.  There were actually more pts scored by the D because they gave the O the ball inside the ten twice...

[Hampton U SID]

was nothing near running it up as Sottilare didnt even finish the first half.

Far as your game this week - as I told Drass after the game - since we play SVU in 2 weeks we kinda hope for a Wesley wallop on homecoming

[wesleydad]

thanks for the points.  as i said, after i looked at the boxscore i could tell that wesley did not run it up.  i always worry when i see scores like that that maybe they could be avoided if the 2, 3 , 4, etc stringers get to play.  too many games throughout the country with scores that high could be changed by playing the subs and playcalliing.  after watching nna play for 5 years, i have the utmost respect for all those involved with the program.  good luck the rest of the year.

wesleydad, Teamski,

It sure looks like Wesley will run the table and be headed once again to the playoffs. What teams come to mind that could be a real dogfight for Wesley in the South region or possible imports from other regions?

[wesleydad]

raiders68, if they run the table.  there is only one in the south that i see and that is mary hardin baylor.  i dont know who would get shipped in, but wesley could get shipped east.  then del val who already played them tough would be a good game and the rep from both the njac and E8 could be tough.  based on what i have seen so far this year wesley will be tough for anyone but the big 2 to beat if they play up to thier ability.  until they take the next step, make it to the stagg then there will continue to be questions about the intangibles that are needed to get there.  they certainly put as much talent on the field as any team in d3.

I agree.  That is, if Wesley doesn't lose to the Wolverines first!

Well. I say lets finish the regular season. Still have to win 3 more to be in the regular season to get into the playoffs. And I think that they can only beat themselves. But we'll see how far they can stave off those injuries to McSweeny, McAndrew and others when we get into the playoffs. After the first round, we will have a pretty good idea.

[Teamski]

Well, one game to keep an eye on is the Salisbury game.  The Gulls always put up a big fight as this is the Highway 13 rivalry.  I expect a hard hitting game for sure especially with Salisbury's reliance on the running game.

Thanks wesleydad +k,


While it is early to look at the playoffs, I see these teams as undefeated and a top seed for each region. IMHO

UW-Whitewater
Mount Union
Wesley
Mary Hardin Baylor
St. Thomas

Their remaining games indicate they win out, barring an upset and one will be a #2 seed in a region. Where they go in terms of region is anyone's guess, except UMHB will stay in the South.

5 teams, 4 regions...one of those are going to get screwed at end up a number 2. my guess is MHB and Wesley will be grouped in the south. UMU east, UWW North, UST West.

[Teamski]

I agree, I think the South will remain the same with UMHB and Wesley sharing the spoils.... Boy how those regional rankings come into play here in the South!
