Wonder if they took into consideration when naming and coming up with a logo, that a school an hour away also had LU as their initials and LU as their logo. Maybe "U of L" "University of Lakeland" or something similar to that.

Missed national marketing opportunity.  Could have called it Fish U and made trucker hats that would have sold all over the country.  I can hear the chants  FU FU FU.

Finlandia already has that acronym nailed down.

Well, as Lawrence found out, there simply aren't enough letters for everyone to get their own. ;D

Which, incidentally, is why the floor at the Woltzen Gymnasium will say "Muskies" instead of "LU" in the middle: https://twitter.com/LUmuskiesHoops/status/748166451115098112

Longtime Aurora head coach James Lancaster steps down.

He spent 26 (4 years as the women and 22 years and the men's) years as the head coach over at Aurora compiling 462-230 (404-188 Men, 58-42 Women) record.

They have promoted assistant Lance Robinson to the head coaching gig over there.

They were so far ahead of the rest of the conference last year, how can they not be considered the heavy favorites?

I'm sure the Muskies aren't supposed to be world beaters this year, but losing to Northland at home? Ouch. I checked last year's results and they only beat Northland by 4 on the road. I may head to the cornfields on Thursday to see them play WIAC foe La Crosse.

Northland seems to be a program that is slowly trending upward in the UMAC. Then again this could be a clunker from Lakeland in Game 1. If not, then the Muskies could be in for a rough season.

I was at that gane last night. Northland certainly shot well in the first half, but I feel like Lakeland should have been able to beat them at home. Alas, after a very slow start that saw a 13 point deficit 6 minutes in, it was not to be.

Maybe that's exactly what they want the rest of the NACC to think! ;D

Or maybe they just aren't very good this year. Based on what I've seen in the first two games, I'd put my money on the latter.
