Stephen Curry needed a few minutes to get into the game, but he eventually took over in Davidson’s Wednesday night road win over UTC. Although the Mocs played a close game at Davidson in December, they had no answer for arguably the nation’s most dominant player, who scored 32 points and handed out 8 impressive […]

A little D-I basketball preview
Tonight I’ll be in attendance as the UTC Mocs attempt to derail the Stephen Curry express in Chattanooga, but while that game is going on, there’s a pretty good slate of other college basketball games. Michigan and Ohio State will play a good bubble-watcher’s game as the next in their rivalry series. #3 Pitt will […]
Faith – An Invitation
I’ve let the post topics get a little monotonous lately around here. I certainly have more going on than following Harding basketball games and baseball’s hot stove. Melissa and I are getting closer to finishing our basement; I’ve been playing in a rec basketball league (averaging a whopping 4.5 ppg in two games for the […]
Five-point lead not enough for Bisons in final minutes against UAM
The Bisons’ home win streak ended on Saturday night to the 19th-ranked Boll Weevils of Arkansas-Monticello. With under 1:30 remaining, the Bisons led by five, but a pair of UAM threes quickly turned the game around. Questionable GSC officiating reared its head again, as the Bisons were not awarded a legitimate free throw opportunity late […]
12th-ranked Bucs lose home thriller to Bisons
This would be a great time for Trent Morgan to start heating up again. The Bisons are in the middle of a very tough stretch of games against ranked GSC opponents, one that could define the early part of the season. They certainly were going to need at least one road win to stay competitive […]
Road woes continue for Bisons in loss to Arkansas Tech
Harding lost its fourth straight road game last night in Russellville, falling to a ranked Arkansas Tech team that benefitted from some inconvenient Bison foul trouble. The officiating crew called 52 fouls, including 28 on the Bisons and five on Brian Howard in just nine minutes on the floor. Of course, the problem with losing […]
Home win streak continues for Bisons against Southern Arkansas
It’s hard to stop a team that shoots threes well and does it consistently. The Bisons don’t do the latter, but they were lights-out last night from beyond the arc, making 14 of 27 outside shots as a team. It was just one of those games where everyone hit their shots, and SAU just couldn’t […]
Rotation coming together for the Braves
It’s safe to say that there were fewer more pressing needs for the Braves this offseason than to shore up the starting rotation. With Tim Hudson on the shelf until late 2009 and precious few others actually under team control (Jurrjens, Campillo, etc.), I was starting to view 2009 as very much a rebuilding season […]
Reddies topple Bisons for first D-II win
That was not a good start to the conference season, to say the least. Henderson State was 1-10 heading into last night’s 76-71 win over the Bisons, and the win was against Philander Smith. Anything can happen on a given night, but Bison fans would have to have expected a win here if the team […]
After lackluster first half, Bisons topple Texas College
This shouldn’t have been a particularly tough game, but the Bisons had trouble putting the clamps down on Texas College on Monday night. TC took plenty of shots from the field and made over 40%, and they also held Harding to a similar shooting performance. Unfortunately, fouls were the story of the game, and Texas […]
