Having been to some Hope away contests, I expect a good contingent of blue and orange clad fans in Marietta that weekend.

If I'm not mistaken this will be the first time Hope and St. John Fisher have crossed paths in basketball since the women's "Miracle on 8th Street".  Not sure the men have ever played.

This will be the first meeting between Hope and St. John Fisher.

Marietta and Hope have played once before...a 84-76 Hope win in the Russ DeVette/Holland Sentinel Classic at DeVos.

Alma drops Finlandia and North Park, adds Illinois Wesleyan and WashU for next season.

Augustana, Elmhurst, North Central and Wheaton stay on the schedule. As does Ohio Northern.

Tournament weekend at Wooster is on the schedule, as is a tournament weekend in Daytona, FL.

I think it's safe to say the Scots' SOS will be very good once again.

That schedule is brutal. No home games in November not to mention 4 very difficult road contests. Back to back holiday tournaments on the road against probably strong competition...

Alma will be battle tested come MIAA play...but what will their record be?

Provided everyone returns and returns healthy, the Scots should be very good in 2018.  That schedule is great.



Schedule has WashU playing at Alma on Sunday Dec 3, might we see the Bears at Calvin the day before or at another MIAA foe?

Same for North Central on Fri Dec 15, maybe a Saturday at another MIAA foe?

Nope. It's a one-off for the Bears.

We could be awhile in finding out, unless the answer's yes and the MIAA foe in question posts it with some alacrity, because NCC has a habit of posting its sked fairly late.

I love the tough schedule. The Elite 8 team a few years ago went 7-6 in the non conference playing a very similar schedule. Lots of road games. Nationally ranked opponents every weekend. I think it sets them up so much better coming into league play than winning 12 games against soft opponents.

Not to mention the benefit of playing tough teams on the road. Even if Alma were set up to potentially host a pod, I'm not sure how easy it is getting teams to Alma (I'm not as educated on this process as many of the people here are, but I do think that the location would be challenging)

Calvin schedule for 2017-18 is up:

http://calvinknights.com/sports/mbkb/2017-18/schedule

Among the highlights:

At Augustana and IWU on back-to-back nights. Maybe that will be a lowlight.

A home game against Martin Luther on December 1. Can't ever remember playing that school but with this year being the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, maybe it's one way to settle the debate over consubstantiation .

Games at Whitworth and Puget Sound.

Martin Luther won 2 games last season.  They are a schedule filler.  I like the schedule except for this game.

Well I guess that means the Calvinist position on Holy Communion will be vindicated. Martin Luther may be a breather on the schedule but Calvin will need one as there's no Grace Bible nor Finlandia (thankfully).

The Knights will play two national finalists from 2017 on the schedule in Cornerstone (NAIA) and Augustana (D3), another team that made the NCAA III Final Four in 2017 (Whitworth), four teams that made the 2017 NCAA III Tournament in Augustana, Wisconsin-Oshkosh, Whitworth and Hope, plus Aquinas who made the NAIA tournament. Calvin will play 11 teams that made their respective conference tournaments in Augustana, Anderson, Illinois Wesleyan, Carthage, Cornerstone, Aquinas, Whitworth, Wisconsin-Oshkosh Hope, Trine and Alma.

Strongest 2016-17 teams (non-MIAA): Whitworth at 31-1 & Cornerstone at 34-4.

Weakest 2016-17 teams (non-MIAA): Martin Luther at 2-23.  Puget Sound (12-13) and Wheaton (12-13) are also non-conference opponents that had losing records in 2016-17.

It's a very challenging pre-conference schedule. I will consider Calvin will be doing well if above .500 entering MIAA competition.

Are they playing Whitman, who made the Final Four? Or Whitworth?

Whitworth. Thanks for the correction. Still a good team going 23-5 this past season.
