Atlantic Central Football Conference/Independents

pawesleyfan and conrad, where do you find the tentative schedule for next year.  is it on the wesley website or somewhere else?  where else are they flying next year, ncwc?  are they still checking into playing cnu or ithaca as was mentioned earlier.  if they add any of those teams or umhb, they will certainly be playing one of if not the toughest schedule in the nation.  since they usually only do 2 year contracts, maybe umhb could come here next year and wesley go there the following year.  i for one would welcome another tough opponent.  wesley benefitted from the tough early schedule, and from a fan standpoint, despite the close games it is more fun to watch those type of games than a weekly blowout.

I am only going on the premise that they are playing  @Del Val, @ Montclair,
@ Salisbury and @ Frostburg. Widener and NNA at Home, plus the game Conrad mentioned. I don't have any other info to pass along. I mentioned NCW  but I don't know that they had a two year deal with them. I would think that would be a road game too. I am not even sure that Montclair was a two year deal. I know coach Drass will get a 10th game if at all possible. With all this league movement around DIII it's possible the schedule could change!!!

Looks like a couple more road trips next year....   I'm more than happy to take it on the road.  The Widener game was fun!

NCWC I would be amazed if it was a flight.  You'd be looking around a 6-6.5 hour ride. 
To give you a hint...it's only 2.5 from us to NCWC

Today let us remember our Soldiers and Sailors who lost their lives at Pearl Harbor and those who survived the attack in our prayers and thoughts.

[wesleydad]

amen to that.

Though i am done with playing for the wolverines, there are a couple of things that surpass football.  9/11, Pearl Harbor, 1st bombings of the world trade center, Oklahoma City bombings, these recent mall shootings, and many other events including our troops overseas.  I know that when i played i always thought about those who gave their lives, limbs, or even their family members so that we few young men would be able to experience something as grand as stepping onto a D3 football field not for a scholarship, nor to make the NFL no we did it because we loved it.  The saying "football is war", that isn't true Football is a great game played by extraordinary young men, who play this game because people gave their lives and their families for us as americans to enjoy the freedoms that we do.  I know that every opportunity that i have or had to take in a game at wesley or play, i always looked up at that flag and knew what it represented.  For all those remembering Pearl Harbor, and those mourning the deaths of the recent mall killings.  Remember this that this sat. and next sat are extremely special.  Its not only a chance to play a game that you love, no its also a chance to show that as a country we respect those who gave their lives, and that we will play on because thats what we do in D3 we play for love of the game. Case and point no one can argue that.  Thank you to everyone this year was great, nice to meet the Stone station, "always next year" damn those Dodgers were optomistic.  Good luck to all this weekend and next MUC looks like another Championship to add to the old collection.  See you around posters, and remember why we listen to the anthem and look at a flag, then you will understand a small part of why we play D3 football.

well, it is set.  muc and uww.  a couple of things i take away from watching today's game.  the gap between uww and umhb is close.  both of those teams are senior loaded.  wesley showed it has the ability to stay with umhb, maybe even better without the turnovers.  wesley is very close to the top teams in the country and next year i think they will take another step forward and make it to the finals.  the offense returns all but clarke and the defense, minus robinson will have to play better team d.  as a wesley fan i am really excited about the prospects of next year.  the schedule will be demanding or at least i think it will be, but wesley will be better.  is anyone going to the stagg, we will be heading down friday evening.

Weslydad,

Enjoy the Stagg Bowl. I look forward to meeting you next year, hopefully in Allentown, but, if necessary, down at "the ditch". We Mules got a taste of the playoffs this year and its like a fine wine, or a finer woman...it leaves you wanting just a little bit more........

Til then, God bless you, yours, and D3 football....the purest form of sport
in the world.....

[wesleydad]

muledaddy, we will meet somewhere.  i expect wesley to be very good next year so they will likely be playing home playoff games again.  bless you and your family and enjoy the offseason.
