Schweers hit her 3 pointer at the buzzer.
And Hoops2010 said she nailed it with 1.7 seconds remaining.  Could she have shot it at 1.7 and the buzzer went off before the ball went through the basket?  What's the difference?  It was a clutch shot.  No need to be argumentive.

Tell me what you think about the chances of the Captains getting that 3rd seed.

Actually, the distinction was important to me. Since it's a buzzer beater, it's eligible for inclusion on our Buzzer Beater page and I emailed CNU to request video of the shot based on 85's post.

Pat - I'd be interested to hear the response you received from CNU. Feel free to email.

The video was on the front page of D3hoops.com for a couple days last week.

Sweet. Thanks Pat. I found it in Buzzer Beaters. I'll make sure to tell the guy who jumped up and got his big head in the way to sit down next time since I know him. Looking for an exciting night tonight at CNU. LAdy Captains play first. Then the men play and a victory will give CJ Woolum #500!!!

SU97

I think the Hornets will edge the Monarchs tonight in overtime. I don't feel good about Friday, with SU missing 26 pts and 14 boards per game, it may be one and done at the Freeman. Last weekend is the prime example, with Kline and Dudley out SU loses both games and can't compete. The pressure sits with Robertson and Schreader to lead this team and do the impossible. Good luck Hornets!

25-31 ...56 ... Methodist Monarchs (3-23)
25-35 ...60 ... Shenandoah Hornets (11-15)

Congrats to CJ Woollum...win #500 in 26 seasons. Nice crowd. Very nice celebrations afterwards. Good to see Bruce Hornsby in the stands!

Had a scare in Winchester tonight...wasn't quite sure what the game plan was but at least the Hornets got away with a 60-56 victory.  Dudley played a decent amount with practically a club on his right hand..he really can't shoot but he did hit a jump shot in 25 minutes of play.  Kline was only put in for 8 minutes and I wasn't too sure why he wasn't in more, I know we want him 100% come friday but I mean come on..if we didn't win tonight - we dont get to Friday.  He was put in the final 3 minutes of the first half and scored right away then was finally put back in the final 5 minutes of the game when Methodist came back to tie it and just with Kline's presence..the crowd got back into it and he made crucial passes to Schrader who scored or got fouled...I tell ya what..Kline and dudley back to 100% by Friday...3 times to CNU is one season is tough but CNU did do it to them last year...this is going to be a TOUGH exciting game to watch

To me, the most unusual thing about the all conference awards this year is that the rookie of the year didn't even make the honorable mention team.  Some years we have had rookies who should have been POTY.  We have been so accustomed to incredible freshmen in this conference and this year there wasn't one.  Hmmmm... what could that mean?  That NO team in the conference can recruit the really good ones?  I hope that isn't it.

Kline and dudley back to 100% by Friday
50 - not gonna happen. Both guys are seriously injured, each may get 20 minutes at most. My respect for Dudley's heart and drive continues to rise. He was out there grabbing rebounds with one hand...

Let me get this straight.  SU's TWO best players are injured and you think they can beat CNU a 2nd time this year in Newport News?  And 3rd time overall?  I admire your dedication, but I'll make a wager with you.  The loser has to write a VERY complimentary post exalting the greatness of the winning team.  200 words mimimum.  Agreed?

Remember CaptJ, SU is a private school and I would expect no less than 400 words.

Or a 5 drink minimum.

I don't think there's any question that the POTY, ROTY and COTY picks were unanimous. Had the Hornets won both games over the past weekend I would have given Coach Harris the COTY (since CaptJ gave me the job of commish). I think they have done a great job with a team I was not expecting to win more than about 5 games this year. To finish second is something the SU staff should feel proud about, regardless of the outcome of this coming weekend.

I was quite surprised to see Kline as a first teammer. Not that he isn't that caliber of player, but he missed about 5 games in the conference. Am I correct assuming that conference awards are based mainly on conference stats? But I am pleased that the conference felt he was good enough to merit the selection. The only change I see is to switch Methodist's Carnes for AU's Malone. Carnes showed again Tuesday night that he belongs in the first team.  That guy is the complete player.

Schrader was a solid second team pick for SU. He still is a bit of a mystery to me. Shows up for a half, then disappears... but, in a major way for the Hornets, he showed up for the final 10 minutes against Methodist on Tuesday night and hit shots at the end of the game. He has the tools.

It's great to see SU's Dudley get some recognition. He's been a huge pick-up for the Hornets this year. His determination and will-to-win is something that doesn't come across in the boxscore, but is evident in the gym. I mean, the guy plays with, to quote 50, "a club" on his shooting hand and still grabs 8 boards Tuesday night....

It is a shame Robertson got overlooked. I had never been very impressed with him, in fact I figured he would be moved to a secondary position by the staff for PG Adams early in the season.

Boy, was I wrong.

Of all the players on SU's team Robertson has been the one guy who has carried this team to second place. It seems that when SU needed a key bucket, he would produce. When SU needs a rebound, he's underneath banging with the Bigs and coming up with a board. He's a tough kid and I was very impressed with his growth over this year. I think he was overlooked for all-conference. He turned out to be a great player and I hope he can find a way to win two more games. He will be the guy to do it.
