MBB: Conference of New England

[Crusader3]

Well let the rebuilding phase begin again and again and again. When is ENC going to stop rebuilding and just start competing?

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

E,


I think they've got some decent young guys who played well at the end of the season.  They might have made the change at the right time.  A new system and some timely recruiting.  They aren't going to be competing for titles, but they should be competing for a playoff spot next year.

And thats the problem. ENC "just" competes to make the playoffs. Yeah its great that the young guys competed during the end of the season, but competiton begins first game of the year. It just feels like every year the basketball team is rebuilding. When I came in my freshman year the team was rebuilding after lossing some key players and competing in the conference championships in 2000. Then my sophmore year we were rebuilding again because we had a new coach. Then junior year Zink brought in his recruits, we were rebuilding again, then senior year we were rebuilding again.  Next year will be another rebuliding year. New coach, new style. Then the year after he will probably bring in some players from Indiana. The prgram seems like it is the "BIG DIG". All I'm saying is that its time that ENC becomes a stable program. They have the talent. Luc Jasmin is becoming a beast, chris corey is a pure shooter, JP is the most athletic kid in the league, Ricardo can do damage, and the point guard is pretty solid, Duda is a workhorse, Chrisos palys with the biggest heart. I mean cmon lets go ENC and get these W's. Its time folks. No more phrases "They are rebuilding" please.

Now only if they played defense, watch out

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

I hear you.  Technically ENC has been rebuilding since Ron Bradley left.  They got lucky a few years in there because there was a lot of talent coming in, but the coaching has never really been superb.

We'll see what happens.


Next up on the horizon:  Will the CCC actually be smaller next year?


We know WNEC is joining, but Anna Maria is up for admittance to the GNAC and Gordon has applied to the NEWMAC.  Even if GC gets in, I think they have one more year in the CCC, but AMC's acceptance means they are out this year.

First CCC recruiting news of the summer:

"Jon Chaloux, Chrispatrick Cox, and Justin Rouleau of Vermont's Spaulding HS will each attend Colby-Sawyer next season, according to the Times Argus of Barre, Vt."

Per Pat Coleman.

Chaloux was the player of the year in Vermont.  Chaloux and Cox both stated they expect to be the starting 3 and 4 respectively next year.  I wonder what Spanos and Trunciletto have to say about that?

Presumably Kenny, Dzelinga and Carter would be the other starters.  Interesting summer fodder, if anyone is still monitoring the boards.

AMC will not get into the GNAC.. dont worry about losing them.

AMC will not get into the GNAC.. dont worry about losing them.

What do you mean worry?  I was looking forward to them being in a more appropriate league.

[d3bballinboston]

I know a little on Clemmer from Windham, hes a big kid, somewhat agile, nothing spectacular athletically, if i remember correctly he comes from a successful athletic family as his dad was a big star somehwere...anyways hes a BIG kid, very soft touch all the way out to 15 feet, finishes well, is fine with banging, can def hold his own in the CCC.  It's too bad he misses st clair by a year as a a year under him would have been very good for him.  But yea CSC is getting themselves a potential diamond in the ruff.

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

Yeah,

I think Foti is reloading just fine.

[backboard]

Do you happen to know his height and weight?

[sully6827]

Good God, not the words you want to see at the top of a page first thing in the morning.  I almost threw up.
