Rubio, with a career high 31 (and 4 other guys in double figures) ... way to go, Rubio.

Damn ... 60 free throws attempted ... that has to be some sort of record.

73 second half points ... not too shabby.

3 game win streak ... nice job, Lions.

old_lion, As you might have guessed, it was ugly. We will take it. Lampl,Haymore, & Chapman all had nice games off the bench.Also,Congrats to Jim Orr on his first College points.Hope he has many more.NCW up next.Keep it up Lions.

The fake scots didn't stand a chance last night against the MC scots.
I don't know why i wasted my time to go to the game.

GC on wed night, better be a better game if i am going to waste a hall pass to attend it

Its good to see that the fake scots will be of no competition in the league-if they don't improve they will be the wesleyan of the men's side. They were BAD!! It was good to see the REAL scots shoot the ball well

Lions equal last years win total ( 8 ) with a nice win over N.C. Wesleyan.

Good team win for the Lions last night to extend their win streak to 4.  I believe this is the longest win streak of the Lee Glenn Era.

I believe the previous best "streak" was 5 out of 6 by the 07-08 team.

It seems to me that PC's teams of recent years usually were operating with very little depth ... and therefore very small margins of error. I believe this year's team has the best depth since 05-06.

I am going to go ahead and predict a loss against Rust ... only because PC sometimes exhibits an annoying tendency to go against my expectations. 

Good Luck in Holly Springs Lions!

Rust is a difficult place to play ... it's a tough road trip.  It's long ... and the worst thing is, when you finally get there ... you are in Holly Springs, MS.

Old_Lion it is good to be reading posts from you and to be reminded that the Lions are doing better.  It will be good for all the GSAC if everybody gets better.  Rust is always a challenge at home.

[bballlover]

Yes but, have you ever seen Holly Springs with snow on the ground?

[coachwgh]

If you go to Holly Springs, MS and don't eat at Annie's Restuarant, you haven't been to Holly Springs.  We have baked chicken for pre-game and for post game I take 3 whole fried chickens.  That usually gets me back to GA.

The Scots win a good one against Greensboro yesterday.  The scots pulled away in the second half after being tied at 35's after the first 20 minutes.  Ben had a very good game, and Brandon McGill had 2 of the most explosive dunks I have seen at Boydson Baird Gymnasium.  A good game for the scots as they continue to shoot well from beyond the arc.

I have seen those dunks you speak of on youtube and while they are nice, they are not Josh Tummelesque in anyway shape form or fashion.

good win against a team with a losing record.  facts are facts.  hopefully they will continue to cruise thru.  its never easy to play at rust.  the next test on the schedule is Transy.

Its about time i have seen something like this from the scots this season

[Spencer Beaty]

The videos do not give them justice.  These were very different from Tummy Time!

[bballlover]

Well Old_Lion you were right again.Lions lose a tough one at Rust.It was back and forth the whole afternoon.Lions need to find a way to get that big loose ball and/or rebound in crunch time.Not a bad effort overall.Also,I can't remember the last time,home or away,a PC team has been outscored by such a large margin on the free throw line.If these guys keep working they will be alright.

[GSAC Killer]

I am not going to lie that was pretty nice!! Keep it up young scots..
