MBB: Landmark Conference

[ronk]

 Tentative league schedules for bball to be released by Dec 4; pre-pandemic schedule already existed with 1st game normally on 1st Sat in Dec(5th), but revision will probably depend on the # of schools that will try to play this season.

Considering schools like Goucher don't even have students on campus ... I am not holding my breathe right now.

The Landmark also did this in the fall ... made an announcement that they were pushing ahead only to cancel fall sports a short time later. I am just unsure at this point whether there will be any conference schedule or if schools will be playing.

 Looks like the Royals announce another commit tonight; have no idea whom at this point. Time to initiate the Royal search algorithms.

2021 Camden Catholic (NJ) guard Colin Merriman off the board to D-III Scranton (PA), giving the Royals one of the tougher lead guards in the region.

Merriman's competitive fire, skill level, and improved shotmaking could have impacted scholarship-level programs.


Well done! last season hilites on the following link:

Thanks Tim.

Now if he can convince his 6'7" teammate at CCHS to join him at Scranton so they can perfect the back cut pass for another slam, we might be on to something.

I think I saw in a separate tweet that he was committing to Temple.

 Landmark tweet today that Royals are 10th all time in D3 MBB victories.

And us Royal fans still grumble.

 Landmark said today they hope to start bball no earlier then Feb 5, but in time to qualify for NCAA postseason play. Will reconvene in 1st week of January for an update and schedule release.

Wall of Fame Weekend Cancelled.

The Royals should have a pack the Long Center night once this virus is behind us.

Stay safe!

That first home game may not be until Nov. 2021.
Maybe they'll have that Marketing intern working on getting alumni involved after a 20 year hiatus by then.

Susquehanna has suspended the winter season ... they won't be the only one in the conference I suspect.

They said they (the president primarily) weren't going to wait for the conference to make a decision which isn't scheduled until early January.

Rest In Peace Coach Bess. Prayers to your family.
