To all Hampden-Sydney fans attending tomorrow night's game:

If you are on campus, I know you are probably tired of my emails and constant reminders, but I'd rather be safe than sorry! Tomorrow night's game is a "White Out," so make sure you wear a white shirt to the game! Also, the Hampden-Sydney Student-Athlete Advisory Committee will be on hand sellling $1 raffle tickets (with all proceeds benefitting their annual canned food drive) for chances to win some great prizes that include gift certificates to restaurants in town, the H-SC Bookstore, $50 to the bowling alley in town, free rounds of golf at The Manor Resort, four tickets to the Macon game, and more. If your number is drawn prior to halftime, you will have a chance to shoot from halfcourt for $100 cash.

The raffle tickets will be sold at the entrance from 6:15 pm until tip-off at 7:00 pm, and the drawings will begin at 6:30. So come out wearing white to support the Tigers!

(Guilford fans, feel free to participate in the raffle! Hopefully H-SC can pull it out, but if not, $100 bucks and a win in Fleet Gym isn't a bad night at the ball game )

Thanks all, sorry to interrupt on the board!

This isn't a problem. We welcome the occasional note from SIDs here, so thanks for registering.

You don't think a Guilford fan would get booed if he/she won the $100 do you? lol By the way, since all the HSC fans are wearing white, mind if we wear black to create a little needed contrast?

You wouldn't get booed too badly And I think in our staff meeting today I may introduce a policy of charging $15 to anyone wearing a black shirt!

Hope you all have safe travels and enjoy the game tonight.

Nice! We have a similar surcharge ... and we also close all restrooms to out-of-spec shirt colors. It can make for a long night.

Yeah, I've heard how fond Tigers are of those colors ... but it sounds like a Charles Bronson movie. What was it? Oh yeah, Death Wish!

Jeremybozz · February 04, 2009, 07:44:51 PM

Good half for BC.

Jeremybozz · February 04, 2009, 07:47:41 PM

Should be interesting to see how many at large bids the ODAC gets.

GC at HSC update:

I was unable to make the trip today, so I'm listening to GC's broadcast.

Halftime Guilford 32, Hampden-Sydney 20

Both teams led in the 1st half, but Guilford surged 15-2 from an 18-17 deficit with about 5 minutes to go. A couple of Henson threes, a Bonner three and a last-second Sanborn (13 points) dunk propelled the Quakers to a 12-point margin.

FG % favored GC 46-32. King with 4 points. GC 4 of 10 from three-point range while the Tigers were 2 of 15.

Yikes, 49-49 HSC - Guilford. Guilford shooting has cooled off greatly.

Jeremybozz · February 04, 2009, 08:30:53 PM

BC up by 11 with 7 minutes left. Trawick is 1 for 12 from the field though.

Jeremybozz · February 04, 2009, 08:37:41 PM

BC only up 61-56 with 5 minutes left.

Final GC 62 HSC 56

Good FT shooting at the end sealed it, sludge. Nice. GC improves to 16-4, 9-2. This game had me worried!

Some balance for the Quakers: Henson 19 (5 of 9 on threes), Sanborn 18/13 reb and Bonner 14. I think the late three by HSC's King gave him 16 and Mudd had 12.

algernon · February 04, 2009, 08:43:19 PM

Guilford wins over HSC, 62-56, after a very closely fought second half. Tigers fall to 4-8 in the conference.

The ODAC tournament runnerup might possibly go as a Pool C bid, but only if the runnerup is Randolph-Macon, Guilford, or Roanoke. I can't imagine that the ODAC will get more than 1 Pool C bid at most.
