Scranton knocks off Cabrini by about 10 in the first round of the Dickinson Tournament. The Lady Royals will face their hosts tomorrow at 4:00 for the championship. Dickinson defeated Washington & Lee in their first round game. The game will be broadcast over Royal Radio...WUSR, 99.5 or via the net.

  Lady Royals used balanced scoring to overcome the strong play of Cabrini PG Deana DiAmico (6-6 from 3-pt land); her play was reminiscint of her assistant coach(former Royals star kate P).
  Frosh Kelly Carman showed promise operating in the low post.
  Colleen McLane suffered a hard fall while driving to the hoop early in the 2nd half and after a few minutes, was able to walk off under her own power, although she did not return to the game. Don't know if she'll be able to play tomorrow.
  Didn't see enough of the Dickinson game to tell how much of an opponent they'll be as their game was well in hand.

Susquehanna comes back from a one-point halftime deficit to beat McDaniel, 78-68, in the championship of the Tip-Off Tournament. Rachael Hughes made the all-tourney team and freshman Jessica Zigarelli was named MVP.

That's the second tournament so far where a freshman has made the all-tournament team (Libby Shober was for the St. Mary's tourney last weekend). Nice start for the young'uns.

Conference play opens up this weekend... any thoughts?

the Lady Cards from CUA look very good this early in the season.. Strong starting 5 and can go 5-6 deep on the bench.. very srtong freshman class has the Lady Cards poised to be a contender for the conf. in my opinion.. they are 6-2 losing two very winable games by a combined score of 7 points.. It may still be early in the season and anything can happen but don't overlook the Cards.. they may just fly right past you

Susquehanna beat Baptist Bible, 78-67. No commentary from me since I wasn't there, but here's the recap: http://www.susqu.edu/Sports/teams/WBasketball/default.htm  :D

Yes Moravian beat the Lady Mules, but they're not the Bull Dogs, they're the Lady Grey Hounds  ;)

     Lady Royals win overtime struggle @ Gettysburg despite poor foul-shooting and some bad passing. Kelly worked well in the paint(4 offensive rebounds) and sent game into OT with a last-second layup on a pass from Megan. Megan with 14 points, 8 steals and assists and 7 rebounds; Jen with 4 3-ptrs and 1 old-fashioned 3-pt play, Molly worked well down low.
     Play recent #1 Kean in championship who were missing preseason All-american Melissa Beyruti in their win over Lebanon Valley.
    Numerous former Royals in the crowd including Stephanie, Julie, and Marisa from last year's team and a couple others that I didn't recognize with former teammate Kelly Lewandowski now coaching G-burg.

    Lady Royals win G-burg tournament defeating Kean 77-52. Kean continues to miss All-American Melissa Beyruti(injured), unofficially, for the rest of the season. They were a formidible opponent, despite her absence, but the Royals played noticeably better than the nite before - fewer bad passes, much better defense, 19-7 advantage in offensive boards, marginally better foul-shooting(it just seemed a lot better), and, for the 1st time, a number of reserves making offensive moves instead of letting someone else do it.  Still a considerable work-in-progress but they took a step forward today.
   Since I omitted Ryan's 8 rebounds last nite, I'll mention her 5 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 steals today.

This message it to all the voter's on the D3Hoops top 25 poll:  It is about time you recognized Moravian by putting them in the top 25 in the last poll.  When you vote this week, please remember that they did beat DeSales (why are they still ahead of the Hounds?) and of their 9 wins 6 of them came against teams that were in the NCAA tournament last year.  Happy Voting!

Well, the way the ball bounces, i see the U of S winning out - until that last game which could be wild  ;)
