MBB: American Southwest Conference

[#1wildcatfan]

Congratulations to the Wildcats last night in their home win!! Unfortunately, they lost junior point guard Dustin Cole with an ankle injury. I don't know the complete details but I think he has sprained ankle. Backup point guard Troy Folse stepped up his game last night. Morey S. dominated the court on both ends. His presence will be greatly missed next season. I predict the Wildcats will go 2-1 this week. We usually don't win at Ozarks. It is a very tough place for us to play at.

Man, when I saw that HPU beat us at our place I knew we were having trouble.  That is the first time they have beaten us at home since the mid 90's.  Hpu had a good run during the mid 90's.

What else can we do to salvage the season?

Ralph HPU has players hurt and even had some kids not return but they are playing at a high level right now and playing well as a team.

McMurry just isn't the same pressing, running and gunning team they use to be.  They still played a lot of guys a lot of minutes but they just aren't as talented as in the years past.

Also Kimbrall Arena wasn't near as intimidating as it has been in the past.  The student section was a disappointment.  They are usually loud and in the players ear the whole game.  There was only one little section that was like that and they weren't making that much noise.

Bingo. Don't know what's happened to them this year. It's just a recent problem too. Last year, the group was great for most of the year. Something's missing!

The ASC men's standings at
http://www.d3hoops.com/conference/ASC/mens
show MC in the lead at 12-4.  Why is UTD at 11-5 shown next to the bottom instead of in second place?

[Pat Coleman]

Because some of the schools in the league decided to check-mark division games, which is not how the ASC calculates its conference record.

I thought I had gotten them all out. Hopefully it's not that someone is changing them.

Congratulations to the Cats on winning Saturday's game against ETBU!! We are back in the thick of things. We finally get a buzzer beater at home off to win. Dustin Cole the point guard is questionable for tonights game against MC. Should be a pretty good game since it is at LC and school is in session. Should be a decent turnout. Attendance is way up for this season at LC. Good luck Cats!!
