MBB: Colonial States Athletic Conference

mailsy · December 08, 2011, 10:48:41 AM

Was at last nights game. The game wasn't as close as the score. For as bad as they seemed to play at times they were up by 18 at the half and their biggest lead was 23 with 6 to go. Cavs seemed to come out 'disinterested' for the second half and GMC closed to 8 with a 15-2 run. Than Cabrini seemed to get interested again and then it was over. It seemed to take forever to get to that century mark. 4-0 in conference. Great job Cavs!!

BBC up next 0-9 overall.

"Senior Dan DelConte scored a game-high 28 points, including the 1,000th of his career to help lead Gwynedd-Mercy to an 88-78 non-league win over Rowan Tuesday evening." Congrats Dan

Welcome to the board msm1107. That's great for Dan, Congratulations to him. I just read that in the recap. Thank you for pointing it out. Hopefully we'll hear from you again.

We're going to work with Cabrini tomorrow night to do a videocast of the Scranton/Cabrini game. I'll post a link off the front page later tonight.

Gordon,

It was good to see you again. The game must have been amazing to call. Wish I could have heard it. But it was better to see it live.
Congrats to the Cavs on the victory. Defended home court again. Next up Johns Hopkins at the Centre Tourney in KY.

GO CAVS!!!

Good to see you, too. I've a feeling it won't be the last Cabrini game I see this year.

Maybe next time we'll get a little bit more time to chat. I'm not sure what game(s) you'll do, but I'm sure I'll be there if it is during the week.

By the way Merry Christmas!!!

Cavs a top 10 team! Wow, that's a first! Coach Kahn and his staff are doing a great job and the players are making everything work(it helps that you have a pre-season AA as the point guard

). It still is a long season, but I'm sure they can maintain this. A good tourney coming up and then a return home to weather the CSAC.

Congrats again to the Cavs!

The Scranton gang asked me what I thought about Saturday's game. Here's what I said about the Cavs.

"Scranton also lost to a good team. Cabrini's coach has really done a great job building a solid roster around Lemons, who is an excellent player. Rafferty is a great shooter. Knowles could be All-Region. Dulac and Boyd are nice pieces (though both struggled Saturday). There's good depth off the bench with Rogers and Miller. Who knows where Cabrini will finish the season, but this squad is comparable in talent to the best teams to come out of this region the past few years, even if the CSAC isn't a deep conference. So losing to Cabrini on their floor isn't a bad loss, even if it's a frustrating one."

In my opinion, this team is comparable in talent and depth to the recent Ursinus and Franklin & Marshall Final Four squads. Cabrini has come a long way in the past four years.

Absolutely. I remember those few lean years between John Dzik and Marcus Kahn. Marcus and his staff do a great job of recruiting to a school that is over $40,000(including room and board). I like Marcus. I hope he is around for a long time and gets the opportunity to break some more records. If they can get this team to the elite 8(or beyond). He'll go where no one else in Cabrini coaching lore has been.

GO CAVS!!

Merry Christmas to all. May you and your families have a safe and joyous holyday!

So much for trying to follow a game at work. I go online to see Cavs take the lead and I see 0.0 on the clock. Cavs win game over. Come back to D3 to read the boards and I see they lost in OT. Wow! What happened. Did the home team have the home 'ref' advantage?

Have a safe and HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone

I'm back from a nice long and well needed vacation.

See that the Cavs have been taking it to the CSAC while I was gone. Tomorrow night against GMC will be the first game back in a while. Curious to see the new and improved team.

mailsy · January 22, 2012, 02:38:08 PM

Trying to get back to reality. Cavs had a good win agaianst a GMC team that promised to bring the heat. But Cabrini doused their hopes. GMC then loses to Rosemont. RC much better in their third year. Cavs win easily after being down early against BBC. Keystone wins 2x this weekend. Cavs still have road games against Marywood, Centenary, Neumann (teams who always seem to give them fits) and Keystone(last game). Keystone has GMC next on the road and sees them later at home. Right now Cabrini and Keystone will host the semis. Could the last game of the season be the deciding factor in who hosts the CSAC final? We'll see.

Cavs now ranked 8th!! Highest ranking in school history!! Marcus and the boys are doing a fantastic job.
