Webster loses senior starters in Johnson, Tankins and Clay. Etienne returns, as does Brown Jr, who started 18 games. Ferrell and Hopp are reserve seniors lost. That's a lot.

Blackburn loses senior starters Hayes and Ferrell, but return the next six guys in scoring.

Fontbonne returns Jones (16 starts), along with Woodcock (10 starts), Clark, Rice and Coddington (19 starts) and Kleekamp (14 starts). They lose Wadlington, who started four games.

Greenville loses senior starters Grady, Williams and Simmons, along with senior reserve Nixon. They return Bateman, Johnson, Contreras and Vinsel.

Eureka loses Bennington, Dehm and Juergens, along with Stork. Milsteadt, Daniels, Hosea, Crawford and Banks return.

Can the bottom half make up four games on Eureka? Fontbonne to win it??

GU jr's who had significant roles this year that you should add to the impactful returners are Chris Jackson, Dustin Bankowski.  Slightly less productive in 2019/20, although those who would have projectable roles in 20/21 are Justin Cross, Isiah Dortch & Elijah Wychers. 

GU had its adjustment year this season. 

It will also be interesting to learn what happened to Quincy Pinkard.  He was having an very good start to the season, but did not play after the January 8 game against Mac.

This is the most representation for the SLIAC since inception.  Very gracious of the committee.

Great honor for Josh Johnson who was a great representative for the league.  His presentation at the NCAA post game presser was super classy.  Dude has a bright future. 

As for Bennington, to make the list  as a player on a non-SLIAC-tourney team you need to be a baaaad man.  And he is exactly that.

With the cancellation of the Spring season, I wonder if the All-Sports 🏆 standings for completed season just solidifies?  If yes, Webster & GU share the trophy.  This is a first for GU.

The SLIAC may follow the lead of the Director's Cup and forgo the all-sports award.

Good point.  they may or may not...  🤷🏼‍♂️

Learfield shut down the overall cup for the NCAA... I am sure conferences will do the same if they haven't announced it already.

In the Spring, I floated the idea of a more open admissions policy at Principia.

I have a friend that works there and so I know it is something they discuss from time to time.

I did see something interesting in the D3Playbook newsletter today.

Today he wrote about a report on endowments here is his listed of Top 10 endowments per full-time student...

Top-10 Endowments per Student

    Principia ($1,582,250)
    MIT ($1,533,234)
    Pomona ($1,486,314)
    Williams ($1,380,957)
    Swarthmore ($1,370,157)
    Amherst ($1,332,588)
    Caltech ($1,332,457)
    Grinnell ($1,224,100)
    Bowdoin ($953,864)
    Wellesley ($912,050)

I knew Principia had money, but I had no idea...

I do think this endowment supports the other Principia campuses as well.

For those who do not subscribe to the newsletter, do it using the following link.  You will not regret it.

  The following is a quote from Ryan Scott, D3hoops.com writer, over in the CCIW room today, 3/27/20

"D3 athletic depts don't rely on NCAA money like the big boys,  although closing campuses early is sure to create budget pressure of its own."

It plays to my "in the back of my head" concern.... how will the low enrollment SLIAC schools survive this pandemic... probably half or more of our schools were already in very bad financial shape, can they recover from this situation....

very scary
The only thing not to be liked in Florida is no D3 hoops!!!

WUPHF

Yeah, we had a more extensive conversation how the Coronavirus-related closures might affect small colleges and universities a few weeks ago.

One other factor I have been thining about: colleges such as Webster and Fontbonne were able to grow non-traditional undergraduate along with graduate and professional enrollment after the 2008-2009 recession but who knows...

I did not see a landing page on the Blackburn site.

GU, Eureka and Blackburn were the three SLIAC schools listed in the Mac press release as having transfer agreements negotiated.
