1/7 picks

G-burg
Dickinson
McDaniel
F & M
Ursinus (do or fall in deep hole for JHU)

Dips won over resilient Susquehanna, looked OK but erratic (though without Brooks, however Tolliver has improved much since last year) Also saw Scranton & Richard Stockton play. Royals didn't look as well rounded as Crusaders but Ospreys would be a huge challenge for the young Dips at present. Maybe Ursinus or G-burg could hang with Ospreys & there retro 80's Wideneresque 1-3-1 style.

Picks for 1/7/09

Gettysburg---need to resurrect the season
Dickinson--home court and Haverford is weak with out Chaz
McDaniel--home court
F&M--home court and Swat is really weak
Hopkins--Ursinus struggles as they adjust for injuries

1/7 picks:

Gettysburg
Dickinson
McDaniel
F&M
Ursinus

Noticed that Hilton didn't play for UC at Cornell - is that the only injury for the Bears? As long as Noonan and Cousart are healthy, I think the Bears should win in Baltimore.

Fellow Prognosticators -

Welcome back. Hope everyone's holidays were excellent. Its good that the second half of DIII basketball is upon us - bing it on!

Here are my selections for the 1/07 Pick-Ems:

Gettysburg (might be close game)
Dickinson (Devils should be the better team. Kline Center a tough place to play.)
McDaniel (Terror getting better and Mules never strong on the road)
F&M (Mayser Center mastery continues)
Ursinus

Good luck! Regards to all!

Eric

What is the injury status for Ursinus?

I hear that Matt Hilton has a foot injury that will keep him out indefinitely---perhaps for the season. He is a key player for the Bears, both offensively and defensively. The Bears success this season will depend on how well the bench picks up the slack. Howell, Page and freshman Mike Walther need to improve their play and contribute more each and every game.

r.w. mcnickels · January 07, 2009, 03:27:48 PM

That's a tough blow for Hilton and Ursinus, but I'm sure other guys will pick up the slack. When Shattuck was playing on one leg last year, I was impressed with how the rest of the Bears raised their level of play.
