Sac: I put up 10,000 posts.
Wooster Booster: Nobody can put up 10,000 posts.
Sac: I done it, right here.
Wooster Booster: My boy says he put up 10,000 posts, he put up 10,000 posts.
Scotsfan: Yeah, but in how long?
Sac: A hour.

:)

I'd have 12,000 but the refs suck.  :)

Damned straight. :)

We got stuff happening tonight!

Allegheny (3-7, 9-10) @ Oberlin (2-8, 4-15) - The Gators nipped the Yeomen by four in their first meeting, at Allegheny. Oberlin has played a lot better than their 4-15 record indicates, and this could be a tough one for Allegheny. Then, every game seems like a tough one for the Gators, since almost every game comes down right to the end.

Hiram (4-6, 10-9) @ Kenyon (4-6, 10-9) - A big game for conference standings and seedings, this contest is a rematch of a game where the Terriers took care of the Lords 74-63. Hiram's on a two game losing streak now, dropping a tough one to Allegheny last week before the requisite loss to Wooster but that was only by five. Kenyon beat the Gators Saturday and were blown out by Wooster earlier. So, this is a big ol' tossup I suppose with no clear trends either way to forecast who has the definitive advantage. It may be the most entertaining game of the night, though.

Denison (5-5, 7-12) @ Wooster (10-0, 17-2) - On paper, no contest. In reality, it should be, yet...Denison has won three in a row after their long losing streak. The Scots also survived a scare from Hiram Saturday. I still don't think Wooster will be challenged by the Big Red, but we'll just wait until the ball is in the air to really fin out.


DePauw (6-4, 13-6)
@ Wabash (3-7, 5-14) - News flash...these teams don't like each other. Prepare for a battle.

Wittenberg (6-4, 13-6) @ Ohio Wesleyan (7-3, 14-4) - This is a compelling matchup. An Old Tigers win means that second in the conference is going to be dragged into the muddled middle. A win by the Bishops gets their program back on the right course after hitting some doldrums. I think OWU needs this more since they're still a quite viable "C" and would have more to gain by being the #2 seed. Face it, neither team is playing well right now


Wabash Always Fights!

Wooster was up 19-2 after 5 minutes, and leads Denison 51-32 at the break.

OWU leads Witt, 36-33 at half.

Hiram is up 32-30 at the half.

DPU is ahead at Wabash 28-22 in a game that resembles a rugby scrum at times. Apt.

Wabash now up 48-42 with 4:37 to go!

WABASH ALWAYS FIGHTS! Down six at half, the Little Giants come back and win 52-48. Makes the rest of the season go down easier, for sure!

Kenyon surges ahead in the second half and beats Hiram 76-68.

Oberlin upends Allegheny 67-59. So some stability at the top and some further muddling of the middle.

Standings as of now:

Wooster 11-0
OWU 8-3
DePauw 6-5
Wittenberg 6-5
Denison 5-6
Kenyon 5-6
Hiram 4-7

I watched this one for about the first 10 minutes on the internet then had to leave the house. A very impressive start by the Scot's. They were very focused on both ends of the court.

Congratulations to coach Steve Moore on his 700th career win. The consistency of his accomplishment can be reflected on the list below:

First 100:    Feb  13, 1988  CWRU           100-74 (includes Muhlenberg)
2nd  100:    Jan  20, 1993  Denison         100-29
3rd   100:    Nov 29, 1997 Mount Union   100-27
4th   100:    Dec  8, 2001 Kenyon           100-17
5th   100:    Nov 18, 2005 Kalamazoo      100-17 (includes first Final Four)
6th   100:    Mar  6, 2009 Gettyburg        100-20 (tournament win, includes second Final Four)
7th   100:    Jan 30, 2013 Denison           100-17 (includes third Final Four)

Those last four sets are just about as consistent as can be...


In addition, for the 11th straight season we have a senior class with 100 wins (100-16)

Wooster's hot shooting continued in the second half tonight, as the Scots finish with five players in double figures, including De Vaughn Wingard, who scored 14 off the bench in just 14 minutes. Also, Wooster had only 4 turnovers tonight, but got out-rebounded 41-40.  The Scots' intensity was impressive throughout.

Wow.  Those numbers are ridiculous!  Congrats to Coach Moore on yet another milestone!

Also, I wonder if there is any sort of record keeping of how many consecutive senior classes to collect 100 wins. 

Consistent is definitely the word to describe Moore's tenure as head coach at Wooster!

Btw, Moore may not have the most wins among active coaches, but i heard it mentioned on the radio broadcast that he is #1 all time in winning percentage!   8-)

I believe that Wooster can now wrap up the #1 seed with a win next Wed at home vs OWU, no matter what happens in Saturday's games.

smedindy

I believe you are correct, since they'll be 12-0, and if they slip and go 12-4 only OWU can tie them. They'll have tiebreakers against OWU. So Wooster hosts again.

Now, as for the OTHER seven spots.... :o

The Scots final stretch is no easy schedule:
at Wabash
Ohio Wesleyan
Wittenberg
at Allegheny
at DePauw

Considering that three of those opponenets defeated Wooster last year and OWU is second in the standings.... 12-4 is not unbelievable.
