hasanove,
Sorry for the misspelling, just had eye surgery and can't read the small type easily.
I'll have my wife check this one.

Just messing with you, Reserved Seat. Hope the eye surgery recovery goes well!

CNU's strength is getting buckets in transition, whether off of steals or defensive rebounds. Even though they're not big, they rebound well and play aggressive defense. Also, if they get hot from 3 point range, they can fill it up in bunches.

GO CAPS!

CNU had no answer for Brooks(Western Connecticut) who lit up the scoreboard for 45 points in the second half.

As always Coach Lambert and staff continue to recruit Georgia well.IMO this will have to be one of the first challenges the new Piedmont coach must address.Finding a way to keep more of these athletes in state.

Hope you don't mind a break in the action, as it were, but I want to share a story the D3 community should know about. You actually may have seen the story on the front page of D3hoops.com, but just in case:

A Goucher basketball player has been paralyzed in a freak accident. He was wrestling around with a friend one morning in his dorm building when he landed on his neck. The entire story is here.

He was released from the hospital to the Kennedy Krieger Institute for rehab shortly after that article was posted last week. However, over the weekend he was sent back to the hospital when he apparently had trouble breathing. Now he awaits a return to the rehab facility, probably any day if he hasn't been released already.

Please keep Damone Brooks, his family, the Goucher basketball team(s), and Goucher community in your thoughts, hearts, and prayers. The family certainly needs help with medical bills as well, so if you feel inclined, please consider them as well.

To follow his progress online, click here.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

I just saw the 12-13 bball schedules up for LaGrange men/women. No traditional dbl headers to speak of. I hope this USAS thing works out better than the first year schedules did....

Some of you may already know about this. I thought I would pass along the very sad news about former CNU coach and AD...CJ Woollum. I made sure I had permission from CNU before posting this. I am also posting a link for anyone who wishes to sign his guestbook. From the website Caringbridge.com I quote.....

"On July 23rd doctors found a tumor in CJ's brain. It was later identified as glioblastoma multiforme - an aggressive type of brain cancer. Surgery was completed on July 27th to remove the bulk of the tumor." A subsequent journal post indicates that CJ is now in rehab.

There is not enough room on this board to post all the accomplishments of Coach Woollum. Over 500 wins in 26 seasons. Numerous All-Americans. A player drafted by the NBA. Golf Coach. Mentor to the entire CNU Athletic department. CNU athletics grew to national recognition in just about every sport under his guidance.

Please take a moment to pray for Coach Woollum and his family!
