Thanksgiving

I am about to take off of a brief holiday break but before I do I wanted to give thanks for the men’s teams victory over Wake Forest last night. Obviously this isn’t the same Wake Forest team we have seen in the past. They are picked last in the ACC but anytime a mid-major wins a game on a major conference team’s home court it is a good win.

The Eagles played very well last night getting in transition and pushing the tempo. Robbie Dreher looked like he had missed playing the last four games and tried to fit four games of scoring into one. Reggie Middleton was close to a triple-double. I love that he is getting into the rebounding mix.

Also the women picked up a victory over Davidson last night. A much needed win for a young team. This team has the makings of a good team, they just need some people to get healthy and provide some depth.

Volleyball season ended with a heartbreaking five-set loss to Liberty. Those who were here and there were a lot of fans, all said it was one of the most exciting matches in a long time. The atmosphere was incredible; I just wish the ladies could have pulled out a win. So, the fall is complete with women’s soccer winning a regular-season trophy. Volleyball finished fourth and men’s soccer sixth.

I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving and we will see you on Saturday as the men and women both face Lander.
