Yeah, yeah, yeah - so I'm old and remember when they used to say Eastern was from Charleston/Mattoon. I didn't go to school there, so it's all the same to me.leatherneckcountry wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 3:55 pmWhen did EIU get moved to Matoonrocki wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 1:13 pmFrom Macomb, it is 165 miles to Matoon, IL (Eastern), 185 miles to DeKalb, IL (Northern), and 251 miles to Carbondale (Southern).OldHare wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 1:01 pm I have 2 questions about the Compass Challenge. The first is how far is it to each of the other directional schools? It would seem that an under 500 crowd says it is too far to travel or the interest is low among the fans. The second question is there some players showing the ability to contribute as the season wears on? 4 of the starters logged 37-40 minutes in the OT win. I see Flores has been missing which may be the extra needed help. I also notice the freshman Alexander is not showing up in the box scores. 6-2 is a good start for the OOC.
Leathernecks win this year’s Compass Challenge, 85-80 over SIU. They are now 7-2 on the season.

#0 CARLA FLORES =was there with her arm in sling following season-ending shoulder surgery. I believe Addaya entered the transfer portal. I'm not sure the status of #12 JALYNN ALEXANDER
We are going to have to make due with a 9 person roster (below), at least for now.
#2 JADA THORPE
#3 ALISSA DINS
#4 DANNI NICHOLS
#11 MALLORY MCDERMOTT
#14 ELIZABETH LUTZ
#24 KENNEDY FLANAGAN
#33 ANNA DEETS
#34 SAMANTHA PRYOR
#54 EVAN ZARS
Ok, my bad, I thought I saw a tweet saying we were missing players and coaches, maybe they did just mean Flores and Alexander like Tere mentioned. So what about the coaches?
Danni Nichols also named Summit League Player of the Week
