Ben will have Lafayette the talk of the town within a few years.
Outstanding coach, great recruiter & good person...if Lafayette ups their financial awards to keep pace with other schools in the Patriot, he'll hold his own with any of them.
Stay well!

Love ya Kate.
Always keep that glass half full! 

Kate:

I love your passion for all things Del. Valley & women's athletics in general, but the reality of the matter is those 2 schools have 6 combined victories in the Landmark last year & the year before it was worse.

The fact of the matter in today's world of NPI is that those schools & their very poor results can & do impact good teams by being locked in for 2 games per year for each struggling program.

The reality is they are in the conference & until they make serious positive strides, they will continue to hurt the better teams in national rankings and it will continue to be incumbent on the better teams to schedule the best they can in non-conference games.

Not a dis...just the new world of NPI & competitive college athletics.

Hi Kate,

By all means...have at it.
They're all yours. 

The Lady Royals played a pretty good Bethel team 2 years ago in Florida & played a near flawless game against them...winning by over 30 (I think).
Emory is always good, so as was just stated... these 2 games have the potential of improving the overall NPI that conference games vs. Lyco. Goucher & Wilkes will absolutely bring down.

Kennedy beats Nixon!      

Thanks NEPA.
Hope yours was a great one as well.

Just wondering about the men...has fearless leader brought in any talent this year?
I think I saw something about 1 recruit about 3 months ago.
Looks like it may be another long cold season for the men of Royalville.

Word is Carl Danzig is a finalist for the Clarks Summit Univ. job.

Wow...NEPAFAN and a Nepafan 1...welcome aboard.

Now that the UofS has made Kaitlyn's appointment official, I hope Dave Martin schedules a meet & greet for the media, team & public at the Long Center asap.

Welcome home...a fantastic hire.

Agree.

Additionally, once we complete this assignment, we need to turn our attention to finding a replacement for the men's basketball program. 

Read the room...always leave the party before you're asked to.

TV stations & the press are gathering outside "The Estate" waiting for the white smoke.
We must be getting close. 

Well, my last question just became quite clear...
Hannah is his first hire.

I sure as hell hope someone left from the staff or the AD himself is staying in touch with these kids that are already on the team as well as those that were planning to attend as freshmen.

Not the time for radio silence, it is the time for ongoing communication with the players & to get them involved in the interview process.

Hannah was front & center at Ben's introduction ceremony this afternoon at Lafayette.
Let the guessing begin...is she about to be his first hire or just there out of respect & to wish him well?

The Royal administration needs to do another fantastic job of bringing in the next Ben.

Thanks for the vote of confidence but I'll pass.
It's all yours.
God bless.

While the UofS athletic department begins to get ready for interviews regarding the women's opening, this may be the right time to consider conversations around finding a new men's coach capable of having similar success.

The current program is stale, predictable and boring.
