Perhaps LC is thinking of doing away with the basketball program.

I don't get it

He is a Linfield poster from the football board.  I think he is knocking LC for canceling their football season a few years ago.

I say the best team(s) in the conference is the one(s) sitting in first after Saturday night.  Everyone would have played a home and home with everyone else, no better way to figure it out.

I know LC doesn't want to depend on Willamette to lose both, but at Pacific and at UPS, as tough a road back to back as there is, maybe your Pios can make something happen, a lot of basketball left, pass that on to Joey Toboni.

True that is pretty tough for Willamette but...LC's isnt any easier @UPS then @Linfield.  I wouldn't like either option

Ah I see. Well I would say the basketball team is in a little better shape than the football team. I mean I'm bigger than some of our football players. And I don't think the basketball team recruits within their PE classes...haha.

Wow, sounds like their recuriting budget is a tad low.  I can see the following conversation happening between a coach and a semi-thletic yet still awkward Sophomore.

Hey your hands are good enough to catch the ball most of the time, and you can change directions without falling over...have you ever played football?  Well have you ever thought about it?  Well you should suit up and come out to practice, there are lots of opportunities to play here at LC.

Well actually that wouldn't totally apply to UPS.  They aren't all that interested in throwing and catching the ball.  They tried that this year and that really didn't workout too well. 

We all know Linfield has a good football program, and that all of you Linfield posters have a monopoly on NWC football board

Pio20, are thinking about road tripping up to check out the game tomorrow.  The fieldhouse will be packed and it will have a great atmosphere!

Pio20

We are contemplating it. I also really want to see our girls take on UPS and see if they can't pull an upset like they did against George Fox. Also, I've never been to UPS and I would love to add it on to the list of places we have road tripped to including Linfield, George Fox, Whitworth, PLU, and Willamette.

NWCer

Agreed Logshow.  LC's two final games are VERY tough too.  Just saying that Willamette can easily drop both, so there is still plenty reason for LC to fight.  I still think Linfield has the better road, even though they begin the weekend a game behind Willamette.  I'm predicting that no team gets to win #10 and that there will be a 3 or 4 way tie.

And about football, oh, Pacific doesn't have one, never mind............

I think we know that...I just wonder if they do.

NWCer

Well I hope they do fight Pio20, I hope all 9 teams do, its been a great conference this year and it would be a shame if a few, or even one, didn't give their all this final weekend, regardless of where they are in the standings or if they can or can't get in the tourney.

I agree.  And I wouldn't want UPS given anything.  It means so much more when they earn it.
