MBB: Old Dominion Athletic Conference

[thescottharris]

Guilford led Randolph 80-29 at halftime . If the Quakers would have kept their foot on the gas in the second half they would have won by 100+. They are rarely even competitive, much less winning, against the bottom of the league anymore. The top of the league they are mostly getting soundly beat. They really only have two more winnable games on the schedule, home against Bridgewater and Averett, to avoid having a winless season in ODAC play. It's really sad how far off they've fallen since Nunley left for the Roanoke job.

The ODAC hasn't seen a winless team (excluding the COVID shortened year) since W&L went 0-18 in 2005. That was only the fourth time ever a team went winless in ODAC play and just the second time since the league expanded to 10+ teams and 16-18 ODAC games.

I didn't think the Jackets played particularly well but then I'd look up and they were up by 20.They did play sloppy at times and you could tell HSC was down a few guys and it showed.Had they been fully loaded the outcome could have been different.Now we have to face a MWU team fresh off of a tough loss to CNU but the good thing is that it will be in Crenshaw on a Saturday afternoon with a full house. We usually play very well in big games in Crenshaw PLUS "The Crenshaw Crazies" will be out in FULL FORCE! Should be a heck of a ballgame!

Randolph is doing horribly would be a understatement. Correct me if I'm wrong didn't they start out pretty good last year (it might've been 2 years ago)?  But Randolph is definitely going downhill pretty fast, I'd be surprised if there isn't a coaching change if they ended up going winless the rest of the season.

Speaking of playing horribly, Washington and Lee kicked Roanokes a** for the second time yesterday 64-56.  They were in control the entire game. At one point we were down 43-30.  RC clawed its way back to only be down by 4 with 5 minutes left and that's the closest we would get. One of our starters was out with sickness but I still expected RC to come out with fire after losing at home against W and L the first time.  RC plays at EMU on Saturday.

An all conference, stat sheet filling, senior starter was missing for a tough road game for the Maroons. If I was a Top 25 voter, I'd certainly give them some leeway on that one.

My favorite season long stat line belongs to John Loughlin of the Generals.  It may be a perfect illustration of a senior role player.  From 3 point range he has 42 makes on 98 attempts.  Nice %.  For all attempts:  42 for 99 (must have had a foot on the line  ).  Hardly any assists (11), but only has 8 turnovers in 17 games, all starts.  Offensively, he's a one trick pony, but it is a good one.
