What a game yesterday by Baptist Bible over Cabrini.
Just shows the resiliency of kids playing the game they love.
BBC was crushed earlier in the year by Cabrini & they were able to create a 38 point swing in yesterday's game.
Not even able to finish with a .500 record, they took down the # 2 team & withstood every run Cabrini threw at them.
By the way, BBC coach's son is one of the best players in Pa. & is headed to Bucknell.
Huge win for that program.

Very decent post Saratoga, credit where credit is due.  Both for Baptist Bible & for you  .  Still watching everyone's posts.  Btw, Aggie Women and hopefully the men will be in the Freedom play-offs.

Kate:
Perhaps the NCAA God's will reunite the Lady Aggie's & Lady Royal's once more should we both be that fortunate.
***By the way, NCAA Guidebook 2014, Article 2, Section 7, paragraph 3...
"Any and all games in the NCAA Tournament that may be played between Delaware Valley College, aka. DVC. and The University of Scranton must be played at Scranton's Long Center (men & women).
Get that Stub Hub number ready Kate...tickets orders are coming in.

Ah, Saratoga, you KNOW that you Scranton guys are ALL itching to get back to James Work! . At any rate, good luck to all the post-season teams, and above all, STAY healthy!

Nice article on Scranton Men and Woman and Scranton cracks the Top 25. Of course you know what that means.....a lose is on the horizon!

First-time poster....
I've seen a lot of posts about Limberiou being out the last 4 games, haven't heard anything official from the team, but I have heard claims that it is a chest-related issue, possible pneumothorax. These are just the grumblings I've heard around the gym. If true, most likely done for the season. Hopefully not done for good.

I heard something similar at the game Saturday; tough blow for him, personally, and for the team's chances this season.

100% credit to Goucher men's basketball for winning a game where they were down by 11 at halftime on the road. Smart game from Alex Noble tonight. I have to say though, it plainly appeared tonight that Catholic's players were not interested in playing basketball tonight. The players looked like they really hated being out there. Goucher deserved to win that game tonight.

 After tonight's action and if MMA beats Susquehanna, then Scranton is the 1 seed, Catholic 2, MMA 3, and Susquehanna 4. If MMA loses, then Scranton is 1, Catholic & Susquehanna need a 4 through 7 tiebreaker and up to 4 teams could tie for the 4th seed - only the Juniata-Drew loser would be eliminated at this time @ 5-9.

Too bad for Catholic-they might have saved themselves a 1st round trip to Susquehanna next Wednesday by winning tonight. Fonville 2-20; he looked all-league against Scranton last Saturday.

[CardsFan]

Fonville has really struggled as of late, shooting % has plummeted over last 6 games or so, with the exception of last Saturday. Susquehanna may not mind coming back to DC after last week, if it comes to that.

Cardsfan are you a player?

Man... I should have made the trip to CUA last night... but then again, I was working .

DMAC:

I have to take you to task a little bit here. A few weeks ago you stated that the Royals wouldn't be an at Large Team even if they lost in the Landmark Championship. Obviously that is not the case.


Not sure why they are ranked 1 in the region over Cabrini but I'll take it. I imagine if both teams win out those rankings will remain the same?
