moving class to the freeman only sounds logical and rational.  think of it as an attention to detail and focus exercise.  The students will be responsible for both the info taught in class and the game.  I would call it real world immersion.
I really hope they win this game!!!

I only caught last 13 minutes of game against Hampton U. CNU looked good to me. Meredith seemed quicker and drove the lane well. I remember first time I saw himin a CNU uniform, I thought that maybe the college game was too quick for him. But he has progressed nicely and really impressed last night. Cherry, Biberaj, Benefield....all impressed me. A few new guys also seemed like they are poised to make an impact. But then again, I only saw the last 13 minutes. At one point CNU pulled ot 58-50. The real test is against RMC on the 15th!

Christopher Newport seems to be ready to have a good year. They looked good vs Hampton. Averett, Greensboro, Piedmont and NC Wesleyan lost their Div I games by large amounts. Our Pride looked well at times but the Division I athleticism got to us. Looking forward to playing our level of competition.

Don't think any of the other USA South teams played against Div I teams. Spoke to a friend who son attends Transylvania and he said they lost vs Maryvillle in the scrimmage they had against them. He said Maryville looks to have a lot of depth and talent. MattGrubb any truth to this??

Can't wait for the season to start! It is here.

I'd never dare speak for the Grubby One, but the answer to JRitt's question is yes.

narch

mu falls 87-51 to d1 east carolina - hockaday goes for 15/10 in 26 minutes - the pirates played 5 guys more than 20 minutes, including 3 starters who played 25+ while mu gave 9 players double digit minutes and experience playing a d1 foe...13 monarchs played and all got 7 minutes or more - no other monarch reached double figures scoring or rebounding - freshman tabias hilliard was the only newcomer in the starting lineup and had a 4 assist, 0 turnover night with 2 steals and he was 1-1 from the floor...looks like a true pg per the stat line

yea maryville is deep with talent, but talent and experience or results.  MC is tough, physical, and deep but they have one senior, one junior and a bunch of underclassmen.  They have a lot of work to do and a lot of potential.  hopefully we aren't talking potential in march

Here's a great blog post from the CNU coaches about getting ready for the season:

I'm excited for the season opener tonight against R-MC, it should be a good game.

CNU85

Nice win for Captains tonight over #24 RMC. Gotta love it!! 77-70.

Maryville wins opener vs. Centre, 60-50.  Coach Lambert had said in the newspaper that the young Scots had figured out how to play defense but not so much offense.  He was right.  Tough defensive game.  Nice start.

narch

good wins for m'ville and cnu...bad loss for mu (91-74) to lynchburg...could be a long season for the green & gold...

William Peace got its first men's victory tonight.  The Pacers beat the Johnson & Wales (NC) Wildcats 77-74 in a tournament at Guilford after trailing 42-27 at the half.  WPU will face GCQ tomorrow and J&W will face Southern Virginia after the Knights dropped a 71-67 game to the Quakers in the nightcap.

CNU85

Interesting Hasanova....keep us posted. Shouldn't J&W be called the Chefs?

I've discovered film of Narch playing hoops. He was a rebounding MACHINE!!!!
