Re: Up next: HPU

High Point is #150 in the RPI - we are #230 something but it keeps moving around a bit. They are 4-5 in Quad 1/2 games and 4-2 against A-10 opponents this year.

A win vs the Panthers would be a good momentum builder for the first A-10 series against St Joseph's.

Re: Portal

I think part of what we may be seeing is the culmination of the "every kid gets a trophy" world. Entitlement syndrome. I'm not getting the respect or PT I deserve (sometimes they are right, but....) so I will leave and try another team/high school/youth league yada yada. I can understand one transfe...

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

Makes no sense for a senior Ivy Leaguer to come to Davidson.

Re: Up next: Siena

Best win of the season. Still striking out way too much and walking way too many batters, but we made plays!

Richie D might warrant an honorable mention.

Re: Davidson's Best 15 Players

BTW, Landry Kosmalski was pretty damn good. Kenny Wilson as well. Himes was as steady as they come and helped make Rucker what he was.

Re: Davidson's Best 15 Players

I nominated Big Rod Knowles (played at my high school), got all sorts of prominent alums to endorse his inclusion, we were successful, and I didn't even get invited to the induction dinner.

Re: up next: at Tennessee Tech

I've had trouble with the Davidson website all day. They may be having issues. I had to go to the TTU website to pull up Live Stats.

Our pen was awful in game two.

TTU had zero walks in the second game.

Cats have a good chance in picking up a series win tomorrow.

Re: up next: at Tennessee Tech

I can't get my Live Stats to work. Keeps recycling to the same Davidson batter in the top of the first. Everything else on the computer is working fine.

up next: at Tennessee Tech

Cats travel to Cookeville coming off a solid performance against NCA&T. Doubleheader today at 2pm and 5pm and a single game on Sunday at 2pm. We swept TTU in three games in Davidson last year. The Cats are 6-10 with an RPI of 226. Tennessee Tech is 10-7 (9-5) at home with an RPI of 260 (absolutely t...

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

We don't need a 6'1 PG at the moment, unless we find one who is a lights-out shooter. We need a 6'6" swing player with a truculent disposition who can defend and rebound like crazy - like Brooks or Kosmalski. We need to get quicker vertically. If everyone stays (unlikely in this new transient portal...

Re: In Game: A-10 Round One vs Fordham

I can tell you when we lost the game. We were up 13 and we gave them 4 shots then fouled, then gave them another possession on a missed free throw. Then they hit a three.
When that sequence happened, I looked at Rachel and said that might be the ball game.

Re: In Game: at St. Joe's

I'm of the opinion that our staff's coaching acumen kept us in these close games, giving us a chance to win. Unfortunately, lack of athleticism is more evident in the last few minutes of close games. Faster, quicker, and stronger players pick up those late loose balls, offensive rebounds, and put ba...
