Big time game for us Saturday night. A win would mean a major momentum boost heading into the home stretch, and could help us out of the 8 seed.
Update your standings after this evening's play:
1. CCU (14-0)
2. LU (12-2)
3. UNCA (7-6)
4. WU (8-6)
5. CSU (7-7)
6. VMI (6-8)
7. HPU (6-8)
8. PC (4-10) (not eligible for tourney)
9. G-W (3-10)
10. RU (2-12)
We are 1 1/2 games up on RU at this point. RU beating VMI would help us down the road more. Liberty can really help us by beating HPU. PC beating CSU wouldn't hurt matters either.
A big correction too....the game is set for a 8 p.m. tip.
The game is on MASN Saturday night, and channel 40 in Asheville has picked up the feed as well. A large LOUD crowd in Porter Arena is a must!

Made the changes. When was the game time changed? The GWUSports.com front page and ESPN both have it listed at 7.

It's been in the works for TV for a couple of weeks now. Our sports info. department needs to wake up from their slumber sometimes.....

These heartbreakers are killer....
However, if you look back last year at this time, we had a team with 7 seniors and no directon or fire whatsoever. The groundwork Holtmann is laying this year for success the next two years is quite obvious.
Add in some scoring punch with Max Landis and Jason Dawson next year with an experienced Davis at point, Byron inside with a year under his belt, and Buggs as a senior and Stefon Johnson as a junior....the future is bright.
Not to mention it will be nice this coming off-season not having to worry which half of the roster will defect and leave, which was the case over the last six years of the last regime.

Did anyone here see the interview MASN did with Coach Dickerson at halftime? What was said? Inquiring minds want to know....

Only way we get the 7 seed at this point is for HPU to lose their final three, and we have to win 3 of our last 4, two of the wins must be against HPU and CSU for us to get the tiebreaker against HPU due to our sweep at that point of CSU.
Feasible? Yes. Likely? No.

Then I guess we'll just have to win the tournament as the 8 seed.  |
