They did?

Absolutely when Toby was hired as AD!

 Ok, they have to beat Catholic and have Moravian beat Juniata.

It's a great day to be a Royal-So if Drew and Susquehanna make it to the Championship and Drew wins-I can see two getting in Drew AQ and Susquehanna at Large bid.

Well, that was ugly. The lack of discipline...

As soon as I read your post, I realized Drew over Susq, still more than likely gets Susq in.

Optimism... Scranton sneaks in. Wins a thriller over SU, then beats Drew in a final. Do all three get in?

[NEPAFAN]

Two back to back must win games and the Royals have 7 total offensive rebounds.

[Augie2020]

Scranton will not make it!At least the two teams I mentioned are in

[Augie2020]

The lack of discipline-It has been like that for 20 years.So nothing new!Lol

Ems is still on the roster, so not sure what is going on.


I watched the Lacrosse game for the Royals, and they had two what I presume are students doing play by play and color. They did great, and I guess Dean can only do so much.

 Overview of men's play on offense last few seasons:
  choose between the motion offense used by the Royals and many others - many players doing a lot of different things(ballhandling, passing, shooting) with varying degrees of how well/adequately they do each thing; there are a decent number of prospects with proficiency in these skills to recruit each year
                                                     or
go "older school" with narrowly defined roles, but more proficiency required in those roles than the motion offense; such as:  PG - ballhandling, break a man-to-man press, 80% FT shooter, get ball into post or to shooters when open,
      SG/SF - hit an open shot, use screens effectively,
      PF - rebound, set a screen
      P - moves in the paint
A more limited pool to recruit from for each role, so you may be missing 1 or more roles in a given year

Make your choice: either/or, not much success in between

I never like to go after a player, especially at this level, but I think the reduced playing time is due to inefficiency near the basket. Tons of missed shots down low.

 Starting times for the Juniata games @ Moravian have been switched; men will be the 4 pm slot, so the Royals won't know if Juniata has lost til after the Royals' game with Catholic has concluded.

Moot point. The only positive of today was seeing Ben Bosland on the court even if it was  for 2 seconds. Kudo to Ben for sticking it out.

Catholic is younger than Scranton, right?
