In Greensboro due to the fact Appy refused to play us here and no venue closer was available Saturday. It would be nice to pull the upset and cram some humble pie down their throats.
They’re 7-2 on a 6 game winning streak heading into a game at Queens tomorrow. Includes a home win in Boone over Auburn and crook Bruce Pearl.
A challenge.

Is that true about their refusing to play us at home? I seem to recall that the last time we played and beat them in Boone their then-head coach said they wouldn't be playing us again, and they haven't until this year. I'm sure that's mostly coincidence--they're not going to duck us, I don't think--but it makes me wish all the more that we had them at home this time around.

That’s the rumor, even on Appy sites, that they didn’t want to play here. They’re playing UNCA in Hickory next week, I suppose to promote the App Hickory campus.
Our building is 40+ years old and not fan friendly, even more so now with the new seating arrangement. I guess if we can’t guarantee a certain gate amount we can’t get higher level teams to come in?

According to coach craft the game was originally supposed to be part of Tournament in Charlotte. Since the tournament fell thboth teams decided they still wanted to play and since. The game was originally supposed to be at a neutral location. They wanted to keep it that way. Greensboro was the closest one that could find |

Good first half. Terrible second half.
We just don’t have good shooters on this squad. If we can’t play and run ugly in the 60s we can’t compete. We don’t really have a true point guard either.
