Here is a great video of Cabrini's "Road to the National Championship."  Hope you enjoy it!

Hope this championship run helps the credibility of the conference and the recruiting efforts of the Cavs.

Hope you don't mind a break in the action, as it were, but I want to share a story the D3 community should know about. You actually may have seen the story on the front page of D3hoops.com, but just in case:

A Goucher basketball player has been paralyzed in a freak accident. He was wrestling around with a friend one morning in his dorm building when he landed on his neck. The entire story is here.

He was released from the hospital to the Kennedy Krieger Institute for rehab shortly after that article was posted last week. However, over the weekend he was sent back to the hospital when he apparently had trouble breathing. Now he awaits a return to the rehab facility, probably any day if he hasn't been released already.

Please keep Damone Brooks, his family, the Goucher basketball team(s), and Goucher community in your thoughts, hearts, and prayers. The family certainly needs help with medical bills as well, so if you feel inclined, please consider them as well.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Hard to believe we are only 4 months 'til "official" practice starts and 5 'til the season starts.  Have a fun and safe summer everyone!

Thanks.  I should've 'googled' before asking.

No problem lefty2.  Thst's what this is for.  Did anyone see Immaculata has a new head coach. The article said they didn't even acknowledge Chadwin leaving. Very odd.    IU fans any ideas? I won't be able to google this one. 

BTW 3 months to practice. 4 til season starts.

Cabrini's schedule is out.

Interesting.  Battle of Eagle Road is early this year - November 20.

They're is a new school in the conference.    It's called Cairn University. Actually Philadelphia Bibilical Univ. changed their name. Trustees just approved it. Here is the article:

Also they are no longer the Crimson Eagles, but the Highlanders. The CA is going to throw people off.

Another new coach in the conference. This time Rosemont has hired Bob Hughes, a former assistant at Washington College.  Little bit more than 3 months 'til the season starts. 

[mailsy]

New coach. Centenary hires Brendan Twomey as BBall coach. He was an associate head coach at Stevens Institute of Technology previously. That's three new coaches!

In just 15 short days the start of practice begins and the defense of the CSAC crown begins anew.  It is hard to believe that just over 6 and a half months ago the Cavs were playing for the national championship. Let's see how far they go this year.  GO CAVS!!!
