Good win for the Royals, I believe it is their first win against a team with a winning record and on the road in Jersey, no less. Great night for Hawk and Farrell. Kean did a great job with the live video as well. I think the Royals would love to have a Johnathon Jones type player on their team. Kid was having his way on the board and is a real inside presence.

Cabrini tomorrow for the 3rd game in 5 days...still rather see Wilkes coming into the Long Center.

Yeah what is going on with foul shooting this year?  It seems like everybody's been terrible. 

Dave 'd-mac' McHugh

I have yet to be at a game this year where I remember a team actually shooting well.

I know it has happened... but it has been brutal this year so far.

Been gone a while but return to see the same type of posts. Scranton people flaming their own team, Matt L being Matt L and Dave being the voice of reason.
SHH, give me a yell, I got the list of kids, finally.

Merry Christmas to everyone on the board. In the spirit of the holiday's I thought I would share this:

All I want for Christmas is a College of Charleston transfer!

 I think the Scranton men have their own version of "Silent Night"...nobody goes to their games anymore.
All I want for Christmas is for crowds of Long Center's past! Oh, and a post player from Charleston...or anywhere for that matter, a point guard in both name & ability, and a real non conference schedule.
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to all as well.

I've barely said anything this season!

But fine, since I'm going to get labeled anyway, I did go to the Catholic-Stevenson game last weekend and they played a nice game in a 79-50 win.  Pretty much everyone got into the game.  It was one of the best performances I've seen from Dixon...18 points on 7-10 shooting.  Jason had another double-double with 18 and 12.  So Catholic goes into the winter break at 8-2--they lost a heartbreaker at home against Stockton (had a chance to tie with a free throw...seems to be a recurring theme...)--against Stevenson they were 17-21 so finally there's a good performance!

  The Royals' Las Vegas games are scheduled to be videocast this week. Monday, Ramapo(#20) plays defending champion UW-SP(#4). Then Tuesday they play Scranton @ 8(opposite the Eagles' postponed game). What will be the difference between the Royals and the defending champs on consecutive days? Wednesday, the Royals play Ripon(#33) @ 10.
  Almost went to Vegas to see the games(well, really to see the new casino-hotels since we were last there), but my wife is recuperating from arthroscopic knee surgery a few days ago,so we decided against.

Ronk,

I think the videocasts are for a fee...believe it is 8 bucks a game or something similar. I wonder if Ramapo and Scranton were able to get out West with all this snow?   Would like to see the Royals go 1-1 on this trip.


Eagles-Vikings is competition for Scranton-Ramapo? I think not.

 got an email from Scranton SID that their participation has been cancelled for weather reasons.

saratoga

Ronk, you are right...it's official...the Royals can not get out to Vegas & have canceled their 2 games. From what I've heard, most NY airports are starting flights this afternoon so I'm not 100% sure why they can't head out later since they don't even play until tomorrow. However, it is what it is.
I feel bad for a group of fans that I know that already went out to Vegas a few days ago & now won't even be able to see the Royals against some real teams.
I'm wondering if Ramapo & Amherst are stuck at home as well or if they left prior to the snow?
This is what happens when you play a team 3,000 miles from home that is less than 2 hours away. It will be interesting to see if Scranton & Ramapo find an open date & reschedule.
Perhaps a massive storm will hit us again next week & spare us from Scranton's dynamic tournament & watching those basketball powers of  Cazenovia & Eastern try to take out the Royals & provide another opening round loss.
The Royals schedule maker has just announced that the 2 Vegas games lost will be replaced by games against Valley Forge Bible College & Ceder Crest. Any future games lost to inclement weather will be replaced by those same teams in the projected order of Scranton's higher margin of victory.

I'm guessing that possibly the players couldn't get back to Scranton from their Christmas break in order to leave together for Vegas or Ramapo couldn't get there since they were to play today against UW-SP.

NEPAFAN

I just read on D3hoops that Amherst is having troubles getting out of Boston. I suppose Ramapo was able to get out West because they had a game yesterday and were able to beat the storm. I am sure they will pick up a game out there and probably aren't interested in playing the Royals back east.

How about giving Wilkes or Kings a call for old time sake?

  Or a Kings-Scranton alumni game?
