Top 25 talk

[John Gleich]

#1 UWSP beat Lawrence 79-59

[stag44]

Great win for the Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Stags:

They beat #1 NAIA D1 Azusa Pacific 81-79 tonight. Really nice win for them, and hopefully will give them some top 25 consideration.

They also play the #5 NAIA Concordia (Irvine) Eagles on Saturday night who have Taylor King (formerly from Duke and 'Nova) on their team. No let up on the schedule. A 2-0 week should put them in the mix for a top 15 look. A 1-1 week should not be penalized at all given their competition

Lets all not forget Rust, who beat Howard Payne tonight, 91-90.



Both NEWMAC schools (MIT, WPI) in the top 26 (thats right, 26), won comfortably by double digits also.

Home game for Rust.

HPU was picked to finish 6th in the 8-team ASC West this season.
That was a long road trip for HPU which beat Rhodes by 2 points the night before.  (Brownwood, TX to Holly springs MS is 666.0 miles.

A win's a win, I am sure they will take it.  The comment wasnt supposed to be completely serious either, although I do have a good friend who is an alum.

Yea it was a good win and rust won the game without 6'6 Larry Veasley so once he is back from bring hurt it will be very hard to Beat rust
