Fisher looked good again this weekend winning two games in the Stevenson Hoopsville College Classic. Wins over DeSales and Dickenson. Dickenson was ranked 21, so a good showing by the Cardinals. I think know this team could be pretty good.

I got a chance to sit down with St. John Fisher coach Rob Kornaker at the Hoopsville National Invitational Classic this past weekend. Check out his interview and the rest of the Hoopsville Coach's Corner (which substituted for this Sunday's show) here: http://www.d3hoops.com/hoopsville/archives/2015-16/coachs-corner

I hope that they slow down by Dec 12th!!

Speaking of E8 basketball.... I expect St John Fisher to move up considerably in today's top 25 ranking (D3Hoops). I'd be surprised if they aren't top 10!!

They did. Played horrible in allowing Fredonia State to get its first win last night. Had a 38-30 halftime lead then got outhustled and outmuscled in the second half. Saxons are young and it's early. Just hoping they learn as they go...which is how it panned out last year.

On Saxon Warriors!

St John Fisher's top ten ranking in serious jeopardy as the Cardinals trailed RIT by 20 points 52-32 with 14 minutes left to play.

Cardinals have since made a push and now have narrowed that gap to a four point deficit at 56-52 with 7 minutes left to play.

magicman · December 02, 2015, 07:32:03 PM

St John Fisher who trailed RIT by 20 points at 52-32 has regained the lead with a 28-6 run and are now ahead by a 60-58 score with under 4 minutes left to play.

magicman · December 02, 2015, 07:44:17 PM

Cardinals down 67-64 with 21 seconds to play. They come down and miss a game tying 3 pointer and RIT gets the rebound and is fouled. Tigers make both free throws and this game will be history. RIT wins 69-64.

Wow Wendy's #1 seed (SJF) loses to the #8 (RIT) seed AND 4th seed (Brockport) loses to 5th seed (U of R)!!. If anyone would have told me that Fisher AND Brockport would both lose today, I would have bet them lunch that they were wrong!! Kudos to RIT and U of R!
