Leatherneck Nation

Over on their site, they are saying the Golden Eagles need a miracle win tonight to resurrect their chances to make the tournament this year. If we lose this one tonight, we might as well cut and paste their stuff and post it here for the next three weeks as our back will be up against the wailing wall for sure. They have a real big dude in Albert Owens averaging 20+ ppg in conference play. He will try to back down on Gilbeck in the paint every time he touches the ball. Good strategy would be dont make it easy for him to touch the ball with some tight on-ball pressure.

BTW, the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem is also known as the "Western Wall". Enough religion for the day. Oops, I forgot, I still have those two Mormon kids stopping by at 10:30. Seriously. When they ask to close our little chat with a prayer, I will be certain to throw in a good wish for the Leathernecks.

The missionaries and I did our part. Now it is up to Billy and the Boys.

Leathernecks face big road game at Oral Roberts.

From today's McDonough County Voice:

The team always seem to reveal in the first few minutes how the game is going to go. Let's hope, no pray for the best!

If I hear their commentators go off on how soft their rims are again, I am going to lose my mind.

Gilbeck just picked up his 2nd. The first one was not a wise foul on the breakaway. It's plan B now.

Hopefully a descent second half defensive effort will show up. The zone once again seemed effective when used in the first half to keep out the easy buckets inside.

I hope Gilbeck absolutely OWNS these guys for the next couple years....Im so sick of listening to these ORU announcers!!!

Agreed

alright, who is in for Sioux Falls?
