I can not wait to see this stud Jason Banzhaf that Matt has been talking about for the last 4 years when they come to the Long center this weekend!

Augie,

Nice to see another Royal fan. Scranton fans certainly dominate the Landmark Board, if we don't fill up the Long Center.

Yo Matt, there is a new Orioles post on my facebook. Can't wait to read your latest reply.

What kind of game changer did the Birds come up with this time? Brady Anderson's drug test from the year he hit 50 finally come back form positive?

C'mon, if you didn't have me on here this board would be dreadfully boring.

I wanted to share this....Scranton and Ashworth were featured on NCAA.COM

Annual meeting of Landmark Conference presidents is taking place today and tomorrow at Catholic. Check out the College of Cardinals videostreaming for announcement of basketball scheduling change proposal - black smoke for continuation of current Friday/Saturday sched, white smoke for Wednesday/Saturday sched. Film at 11.

Nice article on Zach. Thanks for sharing.
I'm betting on the white smoke.

Well, Catholic's DeSales win looks pretty good...

DeSales won that game.

Dave 'd-mac' McHugh · February 02, 2011, 04:12:26 PM

Looks just as good as that win over Carnegie Mellon - oh, never mind... it was just too easy.

NEPAFAN · February 02, 2011, 04:42:58 PM

3 CSAC Teams , no Landmark teams? That Royal win over Cabrini looks pretty good right now!

Dave 'd-mac' McHugh · February 02, 2011, 04:47:44 PM

Right now... a lot can change in three weeks... and Scranton had a shot until they lost both games this weekend.

Good point.

What is the over/under for Saturdays game in Scranton? I think it opened at 500.

I hear ya D-Mac, but the CSAC? 3 teams?

I think the Royals have to close out the season 4-1 to hold off the advancing Rangers of Drew and Cardinals of Catholic.

Case of Cold , What planet are you on right now?

Dave 'd-mac' McHugh · February 04, 2011, 12:44:09 PM

NEPAFAN, I will admit that the Mid-Atlantic Region Rankings confuse me... personally after looking at a lot of the numbers I would have gone at least:
1) Wesley
2) St. Mary's
3) La Roche
4) E-Town

HOWEVER, I haven't looked at some of the criteria, I was shaking my head too much at what I had already looked at... prompting me to take a break.

As for CSAC... it isn't like their schedules are weak. Let me do more research, but when F&M with a somewhat weak out of conference and a weak in-conference schedule coupled with the inability to win games on the road (remember, more weight given to road wins) is sitting at the bottom, I am not surprised Scranton is not there since they lost to Merchant Marine and Drew on the road last weekend... that could have been very good bonus points for them.
