Sure, it was Central Baptist, but a win’s a win, at least unless you’re the NCAA Selection Committee. The Bisons forced turnovers on over 25% of CBC possessions and held their True Shooting percentage under 40, which meant CBC just wasn’t going to score a lot of points in this one. That turned out to […]

Weekly Notes: December 6, 2007
Let’s get started: If you’ve followed the baseball hot stove this offseason, you’re probably aware that Andruw Jones was not willing to sign a one-year deal, probably because Scott Boras advised him that it would make him look like he needed a make-good/second chance style of contract before signing a “real” long-term deal.

Bisons fall to 1-2 against D-II competition with home split
