MBB: Midwest Conference

[scottie]

In a standard sub-par year for the MWC, yes I agree.  However, it has been shown that teams can escape the WIAC/CCIW trap and advance, or play well enough during the regular season to get that MWC or Nathcon team to come to you. The MWC is still better at basketball than it is in football where whatever team wins usually rolls over easily.

Very true, if you're Larry U.

I'd still say for all sports.  How many years has the MWC representative actually won a game in the Football playoffs.  3 times since 2003.

At least every other year or so a basketball team at least wins a game.

Cerroni will have to compete with the 18 freshman that Gresz will bring in this year.  Will he have to pay tuition?  SNC is not cheap.

[AppletonRocks]

So does anyone have any recruiting news that we don't have to pay to see?  Really wondering who is coming to the MWC schools for 2013/14.   

[AppletonRocks]

Who applies for this one?  Who gets it?  Ideas?

6-8 C Jeff Koch, Troy Athens HS  in Troy, MI to Lake Forest.

Typically they are incoming freshman and/or transfers. You're welcome. Thus sayeth The Roop

Any chance Steve Showalter of Germantown applies for the Carroll job?

Appleton Rocks - The use of 'Trading Places' in a recent post was an excellent touch.  Like your style.

Coach Showalter has applied for the CU job, as has former CU head coach Dave Schultz.

Lake Forest College adds two more recruits (from wissports).

Grant Zimmermann of Racine St. Catherine's and Nick Lemley of The Prairie School in Racine have decided to attend Lake Forest College in Illinois and play basketball for coach Chris Conger and the Foresters.

[RTF]

Green Bay Press-Gazette reported on Friday that UW-Green Bay coach Brian Wardle is keeping his job.

SNC fans your coach is safe.....for another year.

How many incoming freshman basketball players at St. Norbert this year?  10 is the over under in Vegas.
