I've heard Calvin expects to welcome at least a dozen new players for the program, including 10 high school seniors and likely a couple of transfers. There will be a ton of minutes available with the graduation of Overway, Winkle, Ressler and Ewing.

Step into the light!

Calvin drops a wild and wooly one in Alliance, Ohio, to still-undefeated Mount Union, 78-72. The Knights controlled the floor most of the first half and the opening minutes of the second half. But Mount Union used a 10-0 run in the first half to stay within reach, and a soul-crushing 20-0 run in the middle of the second half to take command. Despite committing 19 turnovers, the Knights battled back to draw within two points in the final minute. But Mount Union was nearly flawless from the charity stripe today (29-33) to seal the win and move to 13-0 on the season.
The Knights were led by Jalen Overway with another double-double (26 points and 11 boards). Luka Ressler stoked the late comeback bid with 15 points, all from distance. Jordan Scott added 13 and Parker Swartz contributed 11 points. Calvin is now idle until the MIAA opener versus Alma on Jan. 7.

Overway 25 points and 18 rebounds
