This weeks D3hoop.com Royal Stat is Average Points per game.

Currently the Royals average 59.9 points a game. In order to find a year when they had worse offensive output you have to go all the way back to
1949 when they averaged 57.2 without a three point line or a shot clock.

Our research intern is digging up some footage of the 1949 season , but here was the schedule:

1948-49 (9-16)
Head Coach: James Freeman
Home Court: Watres Armory
Date Opponent Result

D8 King's W, 50-43
D11 Lehigh W, 58-48
D15 Lock Haven W, 63-42
D18 Lebanon Valley L, 73-64
J5 Lebanon Valley W, 80-59
J8 Muhlenberg L, 69-47
J12 Wilkes W, 52-51
J15 Moravian W, 68-67
J21 St. Peter's L, 59-46
J29 Canisius L, 58-45
F2 East Stroudsburg L, 52-43
F5 Manhattan L, 66-54
F9 Moravian W, 78-65
F12 Albright L, 69-45
F17 Mt. St. Mary W, 62-55

Injuries have decimated the team, as well as player being removed. But I have a hard time with idea that recruited kids can't perform at some level. This makes 03-04 look like a champion team


Congrats to Justin! Scranton isn't competitive against the bottom third of D3, can't wait until the Catholics and Susquehanna's of the worlds come into the Long Center.

Just as a reminder and I don't know the details of his transfer, but Ryan Ems still has eligibility is playing minutes at Rowan, and the aforementioned Luke Braaten left the team last year.

The site is down every other day, should we establish alternative comms to make sure we can continue our mission to make Scranton Basketball great again?

Sorry...meant this for the women's board.

It's okay. We could use the positive vibes here.


Greyer than usual on Linden Street this Winter.

Well said! 

Isn't that the beauty of sports though?  No matter where you are, you always feel like you have a chance, at least you should, or you shouldn't be playing. You always believe that this game will be the start of something. Here's to moving forward!


Please give a full debrief on the atmosphere tonight. Maybe bring a paper bag for your head?

Coach Danzig was by himself today. Not sure if the rest of the staff was under the weather. Don't want to speculate

Glad I didn't subscribe to Flo!


Would be cool if Flo could do a multi-view so I could watch multiple games at once.

What is wrong with Will?

You thing Klingman smells blood in the water when he brings Goucher to town?

EJ is in the transfer portal.

Don't think there will be any reconcilation.

Yeesh. About as bad a loss as I can remember. Winless program which will cease to exist in 3 months. Ranks up with 03 loss to Marywood.


Thought this was a Saratoga post at first glance

You think the team misses EJ? 

Royals were down 20-5 at one point.

Cardsfan, I loved how EJ played at CUA last year. That student section is right on top of court, and the kids end up jumping up and down practically on the floor.


Royals back at it tonight Ryan Van Zelst is in a tough spot, the last year of Cabirni basketball, they are 0-5 on the season. Good night to watch some basketball on the stream.

Hope those who are traveling, travel safe and enjoy food, family and football/basketball.

I guess you never know who will be lurking in the lobby of the John Long Center. Our network is vast... Thanks for the intel.
