11/18 Games:

[CSC Spartan]

Castleton add to SIZE in this season.
Some solid 6-7,6-8 kids recruited by Coach Culpo．
Last season,6-1ft Mike Knight played on 5 ,though CSC advanced the NAC championship game．

Coach Culpo named Conference Coach of the Year at 1st season he came CSC.
His basketball philosophy will infiltrate to Team further.

We lost All Conference 1st team player(Derick Faragon), who left Sage college.
but, We have remaining 4 starters,some key role players.

I confidence CSC won the NAC title in 10-11 season.

Ken Wright Memorial Invitational @Amherst games might be good test for CSC Spartans．

Farmington 67 vs. Wells 60 - Eric Taylor scores 24 before fouling out.  This was a grinder for the Beavers.

Baruch 80 vs. Thomas 77 - Isaiah Brathwaite knocks down five 3's en route to a team-best 19 but a 50-32 disadvantage on the glass dooms the Terriers.

Mount Ida 95 vs. Green Mountain 39 - GMC plays only five again led by Aaron Ashton's 20.  Not sure if they only have five guys but, wow, tough start.

leelowlang,

Here's a post from Hoops Fan that was on the Undefeated and Winless Board yesterday regarding Green Mountain College only playing 5 guys.


Quote:
They've got six players listed on the basketball roster; none over 6'2".  Two Seniors, two Sophomores, and two Freshmen.  Sophomore guard Kenneth Williams must be injured or otherwise predisposed. 

They lost all five starters from last year's squad.  One of the players listed in their pre-season summary is not on the roster - he's evidently been replaced by a local kid.

This could be a long year for Green Mountain. 

[leelowlang]

Husson 74 vs. UNE 51 - Jay Uhrin knocks down 4-of-5 3-pt FG en route to 21 points and Marc Zaharchuk goes for 19 & 10.

10/22 Games:
Lyndon at Springfield

[CSC Spartan]

CSC Spartans falls to Plymouth St 66-76.
CSC lead by 13 pts at the half time.

ugly game......lack of size.....
5 out ZERO inside style kill for us.

I have good potential freshman on frontcourt.
but They played only sevral minute per game so far(Coaches decision).
