A question for fcnews. I have been trying to locate Fontbonne's complete men's and women's schedules. You said in an earlier post that the men's schedule is out, and cited some of the games. However, the schedule does not seem to be posted on the Fontbonne website -- unless I just don't know how to navigate your new site, which is quite nice looking. Can you help me out? There is only a partial schedule on d3hoops.

I would just like to notify all the SLIAC Posters out there at PantherPride is back at it. I took a job at the College so I will be with you for another year. Preview of Men & Women here at Greenville is okay. Women: Strong and older squad back from last year. Added two decent players in Ciara Williams (Juco Transfer) and Hilary King (1,000 pt scorer.) On the mens side, Greenville standout Steven Groves will join the squad along with LaPhanzo Ellis and Todd West.

Glad to have you on board, pantherpride06! Always good to hear from Panther fans. Looking forward to reading your posts and following Greenville throughout the 2006-2007.

The start of the season is right around the corner and I can't wait!
Unfortunately their will be no more crazies this year at Blackburn College....

pantherpride - great to have you back - hope you will continue to do the fine job as in the past in keeping us informed of the game results over in G-ville ... per my writings of last April, Greenville needs a LaPhonso Ellis on the boards to go with all those good perimeter players they have - dang, I though LaPhonso graduated from Notre Dame a LONG time ago!!!

Dynasty22 - what do you mean no more crazies at Blackburn? You guys were the SLIAC's best fans by far, and I know enjoyed by ALL fans - hope it wasn't an administrative edict - if so, you will receive my personal support on these pages....

Maryville scrimmages Harris Stowe this Monday - I'm going to try to see it - unfortunately I have conflicts the first two weekends of the regular season, so will see little regular season hoops until December.

FC scrimmaged Concordia last nite. FC won all three halfs, as they better, pretty easily. Those players that really stood out were all freshmen. Was very impressed with Trevor White ( Salem, MO. ) he brings alot to the table and is a very poised young man. There was a reason why Josh Branch was POY last year, over Coach Soderberg's son, this kid can flat score. Cartez Parker (Laffayette) did a good job at the point and is very quick. Three players had classes that I wanted to see MCCoy, Fogerty and Almany.

This is still a very very young team. It will need the non - conference to mature before the beef of the schedule begins.

Hopefan - Nope, when away teams come to the Beaver Dome they will no longer have to fear the crazies.....but instead they will now have to fear THE DAM...

BC has now come out with THE DAM this year which will be better then ever. Everyone is always anticipating the start of the season and THE DAM will will be in full affect.

Hopefan, look forward to meetin up with you again this year!

LaPhanzo Ellis's son, named LaPhanzo, is playing for us this year. Very Ironic hopefan that you said that!

If it's the former NBA player from East St. Louis Lincoln via Notre Dame that you're talking about, his name is LaPhonso Ellis, not "LaPhanzo". Of course, for all I know his son might be called "LaPhanzo".

pantherpride06 · October 29, 2006, 01:24:59 AM

LaPhanso or LaPhanzo... either way. Yes, it's his son.

Heh. It's not either way that you think!

It's LaPhonso, with an 'o' instead of an 'a' in the middle, and an 's' instead of a 'z'!

Hey, announcers need to know this stuff!

MacMurray plays at Western Illinois Thursday night. Anyone else in the SLIAC scheduled to play this week? Looking forward to reports on how the teams played, perceived strengths and weaknesses, surprises, and predictions. Mac has been bitten a little bit by the injury bug with two or three key players being slowed by ankle and hamstring issues, but they should be ready to go Thursday night.

Mac Attack · October 30, 2006, 02:02:31 PM

If my memory is correct, don't the SLIAC coaches meet before the season begins and vote on how they think the conference teams will finish, pre-season player's to watch, etc. Seems like they've done this in the past - right or wrong?

Not as long as, regardless of spelling, the pronunciation is the same!
