MBB: Centennial Conference

[shoreman55]

so as we enter 2012, what are everyones all conference teams? Theres a lot of talk on these boards of the same players, lets give the rest of the league some love. heres my group

1st team: Milligan, Breslin, Killing, Liddic, Ward
2nd team: Zurn, Hoenig, Gates, Gyokchan, Wixted
3rd team: Baker, Schittano, Krasna, Bugarinovic, Cohen

shoreman,

For starters, I would definitely flip Gates and Killing.  Gates deserves to be first team and Killing has not yet earned it.

[Swat Fan #1]

I think a team of Milligan, Breslin, Gates, Liddic, and Ward would be fun to watch play. Impossible to press, great inside/outside game, and no real weaknesses. I would like to see Co-MVP's this year in Liddic and Milligan.

reserved seat,
no, the CC is not weak, but in these particular games i picked the teams i thought would win. so far, so good.

as far as the all league selections, it's a bit early to say. too much emphasis (as usual) is placed on points scored.  number of shots taken and shooting percentage should definitely be taken into accounct, not just the amount of points scored. also, what about the quality of defense, taking charges, passing, making other guys better etc. when talking about all conference?

Would Albarelli and Pensiero have had the same epiphany had they stumbled upon sweatshirts featuring Washington & Lee, or Emory & Henry, or Johnson & Wales, or Cincinnati & Lake Erie, or Ft. Wayne, Van Wert & Lima, or Washington, Baltimore & Annapolis? These are vital questions. 

haha, i'm surprised they stumbled upon F&M shirts at a flea market and not in a dumpster where they belong!

12/30 pick

Skidmore over Ursinus (by 5?)

[Swat Fan #1]

Having had the chance to see Skidmore and Ursinus play this year, I think if Ursinus can stay within 20 it will be a good game. Skidmore almost beat #1 Middlebury this year only losing by 5. It would be great if Ursinus could knock them off. I am still hearing about F&M losing to Ithaca College last year. If anyone could update all the game scores this week it would be great! Thanks!

Dickinson over Medaille. Bigtime win for the Devils and conference.
