I also want to share my appreciation for Rooker being our coach.  I've never met him, but I think he does a great job of representing NPU and it's mission.  While I don't want to settle, the way the players and parents seem to connect with him and how he prepares them in life, goes beyond just W/L's.

Absolutely agree. NPU football is blessed to have Kyle Rooker running the show. I've seen more North Park coaches  than I can count come and go over the many years that I've followed Vikings sports, and I say without hesitation that Rook is one of my all-time favorites -- not just because of what he's accomplished but because of who he is and what he stands for.

I hope there is always an appreciation for the D3 coach that maximizes his talent, has great player relations, and preps players for life.

These coaches may never coach a NCAA playoff game but they are invaluable to their institution.

Joe Thomson Westfield State University has transferred to Babson.

Something doesn't add up.  Played one year at WSU (last year) and was listed as a sophomore.  Babson has him listed as a Grad.  6'7" 235. natural 5.

Anyway, put up 10.1 and 11.6 last year.  I imagine he'll see big minutes though there is a logjam now on a 20+ man roster.

Quote from: WPI89 on August 20, 2026, 10:42:13 AMWPI got a transfer walk on from Oregon State - Kan Yarkut.  Will try to find out more about him.  Not sure if he has 2 or 3 years eligibility left?  6'6" guard or 6'7" forward depending upon which site you look at.

Exciting - welcome to Worcester young man.

Babbo/Dave/Pat/Ryan - any info here?

2 guys from Turkey now, right?  Plenty of guys with size to compete for spots.

Quote from: D3fanboy on August 19, 2026, 04:54:25 PMDL Jackson Harris listed back on the ever-changing Mount Union roster....the DL is going to have some depth

That's a nice surprise.  I also saw OT Fred Fervier is back as a grad student also.  I think he started every game last season at LT.

On the transfer WR front I noticed Brayden Miller is a Jr with no jersey number.  He's a 6'1", 189 lb transfer from Stetson.

3 starting OL returning (LT- Fervier, C - Lavelle, RT - Coffee) isn't a bad place to start.  Parker Jenks played well on the inside when Lavelle was out for a few games last year as well.

Men's soccer / Re: ODAC
Last post by jknezek - August 21, 2026, 09:15:29 AM
Excited this year I get to go see both the W&L men's and women's soccer teams. The last few years I've gotten to see the men's team as they came south. Been great to take my sons and support the team. This year the women's team comes to Sewanee, so my coworker whose daughter plays for Sewanee and I are going to make the drive.

Back to Covenant for the men, Sewanee for the women. Two truly beautiful campuses and W&L soccer. If only the football team would renew its once 60 plus year tradition with Sewanee I'd be thrilled. I'd only be missing lax, and even that I got the women's team year before last in the first two rounds of the NCAA tournament.

Freely admit, basketball, baseball, volleyball... I have a harder time justifying it, though I'd probably go see basketball if I could make it. Used to hope the teams would come to B-SC, but in the almost 20 years I've lived in Birmingham, only the men's lax team came once. And that ship has sailed...
