MBB: Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

I was told back in late March that the UWSP investigation report was going to be delayed until May (when the proper timing said April). I have asked several times why the delay and several more times when to expect it. No response. I will be trying again, but people who have been rather forthcoming with info have buttoned down recently - somewhat surprising.

Dominican 6'8" Forward, Will Jelacic, has added himself to the La Crosse Eagles recruiting class.

Update on UWSP investigation. I have been told basically the two sides are going back and forth on basically the details and such. I don't have a lot of details because these things are very much kept in a tight circle. At the same time, no need to worry about getting details because when the investigation comes out it is always rather detailed. However, I am starting to think this could be June before we hear anything, now.

Former McFarland standout, Ben Rounds, is transferring from Minnesota-Crookston after 1 season.  Former UWSP All Conference Player Bryan Beamish is an assistant at Crookston, could he help out his alma mater in this scenario??  Something to watch as a Pointer fan.

Evansville 6'3" wing, Hayden Reese, has committed to UW Stout.

He was briefly our coach, IIRC.  This looks like a career ender.

Nice story about a well-earned upcoming tribute to the voice of the Pointers, Scott Krueger...

Lake Mills 6'1" G, Brady Wagner, has committed to UWSP.  He averaged 17 points a game for a team that qualified for state.  Also got Honorable Mention All State honors.  Known as a great lefty long distance shooter.  High School coach was former Pointer Steve Hicklin.

The new, as yet incomplete, Bowen Court/Page Arena at UWRF will move RF from last to first in WIAC hoops facilities. Go to #Bowen Court, or #Crystal Lanning, or just google any of the above for pictures. Formal opening is in September.

The pictures are on Twitter, so if you don't have an accoundt, probably cant get em

UWW's Zach Knobloch has transferred to IWU, where he will be a sophomore.  I checked his game-by-game stats on the UWW website, and have a question for anyone who knows: he started most of the non-con games and had highly decent stats.  Come the WIAC season, he barely saw the floor (c. 6 mins a game).  What happened?  (Beaten out by a better player? problems with the coach? nagging injuries?)

Mid-season roster additions, most likely.
