Wow! Never seen this board so quiet so close to a new season. Sign of the times!
Thank you Nathan Davis.
I do plan to post a bunch of preseason stuff within the next week. I consider the game with Niagara a week from Saturday to be the true opener. To me a game with a poor D3 team (I.e. Lebanon Valley), one that is classifying the game as an exhibition game, doesn’t count for anything.
For those wondering how strong Lebanon Valley is, you may be interested in knowing that LV was ranked seventh out of 9teams in the MAC Commonwealth preseason poll, barely escaping the cellar. The poll:
2022-23 MAC Commonwealth Men's Basketball Coaches' Preseason Poll
Rank Team Points (1st Place Votes)
1 Alvernia 58 (4)
2 Eastern 54 (2)
3 Widener 49 (2)
4 Messiah 37
5 Hood 32
6 Stevenson 28
7 Lebanon Valley 24
8 Albright 23 (1)
9 York 19
This would be an improvement, as LV finished last in the league during the past season. Hopefully Jermaine Truax knows enough about basketball to realize that this game at best is meaningless.
