On a very busy Saturday, some early conference showdown games took place and a few other teams scored a big win. Those and more notes from Saturday’s games are here.
Month: January 2014
Battled-tested Delaware is on top of the CAA for good reason
Delaware has a talented and experienced perimeter unit leading the way. Look at that only and you miss the reason the Blue Hens are on the of the CAA and won’t be easily moved out of that spot.
Ennis lends a steady hand to Syracuse
As is often the case, Syracuse has plenty of talent, just one reason they haven’t lost on the season. Underlying all of it is the steady hand of a freshman point guard.
Sunday notes from the 2014 BallasTV Invite
We have notes from the five games on Sunday at the BallasTV Invite.
CAA newcomers College of Charleston playing through challenges
College of Charleston has the talent and experience to contend in their first year in the CAA. What is already clear, however, is that getting there will be a challenge, one they seem prepared for.
Herenda providing new attitude, new direction at FDU
It’s early yet, but new head coach Greg Herenda is already making progress rebuilding Fairleigh Dickinson as he and his staff got right to work.
Saturday notes – January 11, 2014
Another Saturday full of early conference games is in the books. A couple of surprising notes come in the ACC, but there’s much more and we have it right here.
Anderson and Robert Morris are trying to benefit from a tough schedule
Robert Morris found wins hard to come by during a tough non-conference schedule. Now the Colonials are 2-0 in early NEC play with both wins on the road, and things are looking up for them.
Georgetown is missing an intangible
Georgetown has talent and depth, along with experience. Plenty of teams would love to have it. But the Hoyas also seem to be missing an intangible, and that could hurt them later in the season.
Eighth-ranked Villanova too much for Seton Hall
Seton Hall competed and battled, as they have all season long, against Villanova. But once again it wasn’t enough, this time against a team ranked in the top ten.
