F&M  Dickinson not ending their losing streak against the Dips
Gettysburg likely to win at home
Haverford in the rivalry game at home
Washington  on a roll
Muhlenberg because they are the home team

[fritzdis]

For a team with such a bad record, it's amazing how many close games Dickinson has played.  In their 13 losses, they were within 3 points in the last 4 minutes of the game 8 times.  If they can continue to do that, they're bound to pull off a win or 2.

Folks -

Before I forget, here are my picks for tonight's games:

F&M @ Dickinson:   F&M

McDaniel @ Gettysburg:   Gettysburg (Terror lost an important palyer)

Swarthmore @ Haverford:   Haverford

Johns Hopkins @ Washington:   Johns Hopkins (Shoremen could have a let-down after two big wins)

Ursinus @ Muhlenberg:   Muhlenberg (Game is at the "Mule Barn" - a very tough place for an inexperienced road team to win)

I guess I am sort of out on the limb with my picks of JHU and Muhlenberg! Since I missed Saturday's Diplomat game at Mayser, I am going to try to get to the Kline Center in Carlisle to see the Diplomats play the Red Devils tonight.

Good luck! Enjoy the games. regards to all.

Was Barnes injured or sick on Saturday for Muhlenberg?  His name wasn't in the box score.

I heard that Barnes is out for the season with a knee injury.

My computer is driving me nuts.  This is the third time I tried to post this entry.

Gabriel, thanks for the info.  If Barnes is done for the season, it will have a major effect on Muhlenberg's game.

Dickinson's inexperience was apparent as F&M coasted to a 71-49 win.  F&M built built a 32 point margin, until Dickinson closed the final scoring margin against F&M's subs.
Tolliver co-lead F&M with 14, all in the first half.  Milligan matched his total. McNally contributed 13 more, and Brooks chipped in with 10 points.  Barsanti lead Dickinson with 17, but no one else reached double figure.  Gyokchyan came off the bench to play quality minutes, providing good back up for McNally and Brooks.  If Hayk can continued to support the big men, it bodes well for F&M future play.  The most obvious fault in F&M's game was its 9-19 foul shooting, whereas Dickinson went 16-22.  F&M shot 50% including 8-16 from beyond the arc.

Rumor is that Barnes tore his ACL against Gettysburg.  No contact involved in the injury, just a freak thing.
Heard he was going to sit out for a few weeks and try to play with it, because it is his senior year. 
Such a shame, I wish him well on his recovery.

Nice article about Jon Ward from the Allentown paper.  He could not play against Muhlenberg last night because of the flu.
