Keene State Athletic communications has produced a well done documentary of their Men's team's season on YouTube

Congratulations to Aaron Nkrumah.  Although the OVC is not a top tier Division One Conference it is a data point that there are some Division 3 players who can successfully make the jump to the D1 level. 

As we reach the end of January, it is put up or shut up time in Conference play.

Great time of the year.

That looks like a foul to me.  I have seen less contact called a foul numerous times this year.

Just stumbled online to the overtime of the Whitwirth/Lewis and Clark game.  Very entertaining and well played extra period.  There should be no question that Conference play is the best time of the season.

What really stood out to me was the announcers for Whitworth.  The best I have heard this year. 

Impressive all around.

Hey GNAC followers,
Curious to know you you figure this year's teams shake out.  Has there been a preseason poll released yet?  What scrimmages have the teams had so far?

Having lived in that area a number of years this comes as no surprise because the coach during these players' time was Ron Johnson.  Ron is one of the finest coaches I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.  He is presently the coach at Providence Day School in Charlotte.

The point on the NJAC could be same for a conference like MASCAC. All public schools.

The MASCAC will be adding Anna Maria in 2025.  They will be the only private college in the core membership

Just an additional data point for St Lawrence on their OOC schedule.  They will definitely face an NCAA tournament team in their second game at the Williams Tournament because Worcester State was an NCAA team last year  It would be either Williams or Worcester for SLU.

It should be an interesting night in the CCC.

Endicott  5-1 vs Nichols 4-2
