Check out the new poll,,,see if you can make the correct pick.

[r.w. mcnickels]

Anthony Brooks was missing from F&M's lineup last night due to a recent appendix operation, according to today's Intell.  Tolliver played well in his first start of the year.  The Dips play Susquehanna (7-3) tonight in the Sponaugle final.

Check out the new poll,,,see if you can make the correct pick.

Ursinus will be tough to beat, even though they've dropped a couple out of the conference.  Their guard play could carry them to another title.  The youthful Dips have been impressive, but they might still be a year away...

[Reserved Seat]

F&M seemed to struggle with TCNJ's offensive scheme.  It seemed that TCNJ had 5 guards on the floor most of the night.  TCNJ's lack of height didn't hindering their trapping defense.  F&M had trouble getting the ball inside; and when they did, they missed some easy opportunities.
They started the game with 3 misses underneath on the first possession.  Later in the game they missed on 4 opportunities in one possession under the basketball.  Hopefully, the rust was the culprit.  Brooks' athleticism was missed.  Johnson's play showed that F&M has another threat coming off the bench.

[BRCE4]

Mules struggled some after the holidays but beat Hood in the Moravian tourney opening round. Congratulations to Coach Madeira on his 300th win at Muhlenberg.
