MBB: Landmark Conference

[stlawus]

Lots of schools don't have schedules up yet, I'm not sure what the issue is. 

[Stretch4]

Here's two non-conference games for Scranton ... MAC Freedom teams Kings and Stevens. I know last year was part 1 of home/away vs Stevens so should be at Scranton this year. Kings schedule is out there with Scranton on it.

Thanks Stretch.

Calling it now...
In the Stevens game, former Royal Stephen Braunstein will drop 24 in on his old team & lead the Ducks to a 78/61 victory.

Starting to wonder if this year's team has a schedule!

People keep bringing these things to this board, but instead, send an email to the athletic department.

Sorry we should stop posting here.

You weren't the OP or anything here, but I think generally if the post is going to be in any way critical of an overworked SID, feel free to email them rather than post your gripe here.

Could also be people excited about a schedule release, and being a bit factious. Let's not always assume everyone is attacking the athletic department.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Landmark football is not whetting the whistle for most on the board. Baddddddd week last week. Woof!!!

 It's been 63 years since Scranton's last football(non club variety)game and some of those players were fellow students of mine.

Nonconference schedule up: FDU-Florham, 1st game, part of Hilton Invitational

2nd day opponent in the Hilton(other 2 teams unknown at this point)

Mount Union #2 in the nation last season

Stevens, Cabrini(Ryan van Zelst), Arcadia, Kings

[Great Day to be a Royal]

Looks like other match up is Farmingdale State and Marywood. Interesting to see Marywood in tournament.  I think I like the local flavor.

This is a very tough NC slate! Truly impressed in the scheduling

[ronk]

Just wish they'd get better teams than FDU and Marywood in the invitational. Continues a long tradition of the likes of Houghton and Bard, etc.

[NEPAFAN]

Two weaker teams and two stronger teams is often the formula for this tournaments aren't they?

[saratoga]

Typical Royal schedule minus the addition of Mt. Union.
Danzig rarely plays teams that good.
Not sure why he keeps playing the Arcadia's & Cabrini's of the world but he must really want to win the Van Zelst trophy this year.
Marywood, FDU, & Farmingdale St. is the best you can do for a Holiday Tournament?
I think I now miss the days of Bard, Sarah Lawrence & Cooper Union.
Tickets will sell out fast for this tourney.

Fixed it for you.

I still stand by with my stance the NC slate. FDU is a nice tune-up and should be an easy one, with either a potential match-up with an NCAA team in Farmingdale State, or cross-town non-rival Marywood, a school they have not played since 03-04. I still think the two schools need to come together, along with the city to create some sort of mayor, or city cup. Maybe an entire athletics department competition with each team during season playing Marywood and keeping a trophy for overall winner. Nearly every team already competes against each other as it is. It might just be the men who doesn't play one another.

Stevens was a home and home, and a nice home coming for SB
Mount Union, defending finalist is something to be said. I am eager to see their schedule. They have to be passing through on the way to somewhere to play.
Cabrini has the history of playing each other, as well as Ryan coming back to coach. Perhaps a preview of years to come with him.
Arcadia - NCAA tournament.
King's - local rival.

All in all, games I am excited to see.

One note, Cabrini is closing it's doors at the end of year, so that won't be a long term relationship. It will be special for Ryan to come back to Scranton to coach against his mentor.
