well coach ag i say u make a good point but i really cant see csi win the championship this maybe they would it the next two yr in a row but this i have to give to york they look like they are turning the coner now by playoffs they are gonna be very hard to stop.

Coach AG · January 14, 2007, 05:42:37 PM

York is the favorite with two of the top players in the region on their team in Echols and Boone. However things change come tournament time. For example last year Baruch breezed through the league last year and looked untouchable heading into the CUNYs. But young teams come together at the end of the year as John Jay beat CSI and York snuck up on people and eventually took the crown. With that being said dont be so confident that York is a clear cut favorite.

coach ag look last yr york beat baruch in the chip with a young team but this yr york team is better than last yr team they are deeper and stronger at every postion do u agree with me? if york win monday we will see where they stand as of the region i like york this yr team i think they have the right piece for somthing special this yr and i cant wait to see how far they would go. and i have to admit they do have two of the best player in the region in boone and echols and wilson is coming on as a somp and mike is turning around into the point guard we all expected to be and york is flying high right now and i think they can beat rampo on monday and get past the frist round of the NCAA tournment

I figured I would let you all know that the Hunter/NYU game is being broadcasted on WNYU.Org. If you are in the city you should be able to catch the station on 89.1 FM.

NYU thoroughly dominated Hunter tonight and won easily, 94-59. I wasn't expecting a Hunter victory, but I did think the game would be more competitive. Hunter was simply never in this one. The Hawks had no answer for Jason Boone and Mike DeCorso, both of whom made it look easy against the overmatched Hawks. It was the poorest game I've seen Chris Bernard play. He never got on track and finished with 12 points.

i dont see what you saw in hunter to have any belief that they would have a chance at keeping it close against NYU.

I wasn't expecting a nailbiter. I thought Hunter would lose by 15-20 points, not 35. I knew Hunter was going to get killed inside, but I thought Bernard would have a better game and make it a bit more respectable. Hunter played tight the whole game, and NYU did a good job defending against the Hawks. NYU's size--and bulk--completely nullified Hunter's quickness. Every time someone penetrated for Hunter he ran into an NYU big man and the Hunter player was unable to do anything positive.

its thursday and am bac well york beat ccny by 15 thye had balance scoring again they are 12-7 three wins away from there mark last yr and they are goin to past this yr. csi lose 5 str8 games and baurch is 5-2 in cuny they are coming around now.

Coach AG · January 18, 2007, 11:21:08 PM

Just to give everyone a heads up, the sleeper team to win the conference is Medgar Evers. They are the deepest team in the league now that they added Kennedy and Wilkes from last years team. These two guys were their best players last year and all of a sudden they magically appear on their roster way after midseason. Can anyone tell me how this happens? Medger Evers has always been guilty of wierd team actions, one day a player plays and the next game he's not even on the bench. With all this said if they keep the team together that just played Hunter in their last game LOOK OUT. They are definetly the deepest team from 1 to 10 in the league.

xalva66 · January 19, 2007, 09:19:45 AM

Coach,

Completely agreed. They are definitely a sleeper team. Gave Hunter a big run in the game Wednesday night. Hunter now has Lehman at Lehman in another big CUNY game.

TheBeast · January 19, 2007, 11:53:17 AM

so medger finally got there stars bac buit it wasnt enough to beat hunter. anyway i know alot of ppl are say that the courgars are a sleeper but they have to go through york in there divison if they can go punch for punc with york when they play in brooklyn then i would belive they are what they are sounding like untill then my fav is still york because they are also deep and like i keep saying they have size they can kill u in the post and alos by the outside wut other them can honestly do that?

Rhodes Scholar · January 19, 2007, 11:55:13 PM

John Jay dealt York their first CUNYAC defeat tonight, 75-72. Hunter, which squeeked by both CSI and Medgar Evers, is the only undefeated team in conference play with a 6-0 record. The Hawks take on Lehman tomorrow afternoon in the Bronx.

xalva66 · January 20, 2007, 12:23:03 AM

Wow. I bet no one expected that. Rhodes, I read the article on the John Jay website. It seemed to me Echols didnt have the game he normally has. But again, thats not looking at a stat sheet but just by reading the article thats on the website. But again, the game was not a low scoring game, John Jay probably played very well.

mully · January 20, 2007, 02:06:44 AM

Baruch still seems to be in the hunt. Beat Medgar Evers tonight. Anyone see game? Who's getting it done for them?
