I’m not totally caught up on this weekend’s games, but I’m getting things in gear for the first Harding home game tomorrow night against Alabama-Huntsville.  UAH split the home-and-home with HU last year, so the Bisons will be working toward winning both games starting at 8:30 PM Eastern.  Hopefully I’ll have some stats to post […]

The first weekend of the basketball season has passed, and the outcomes were mostly predictable.  Here’s a rundown of what happened: Week in Review Christian Brothers looked very good as the only team to play three games this week.  The Bucs won all of them, all against solid Division-II opponents.  The home win over Lynn […]

21st Ranked Bisons Fall to Incarnate Word, 79-70 [HardingSports.com] In recent years for Harding Basketball, there has been one thing you can count on: if the three-point shots aren’t falling, the Bisons certainly are. That was the case today against Incarnate Word in Austin, Texas, where Harding just couldn’t hit enough shots and fell 79-70. […]

HardingSports.com game summary Matt Hall had 35 points in a close season-opening game to lead the newly-21st-ranked Harding men’s team. Sadly, I didn’t get to hear much of the radio broadcast, since it cut out on me for good at about the 7-minute mark in the first half. It apparently turned out to be a […]

This is the first in a series of weekly previews and reviews of GSC basketball action.  Until the first week of 2007, there are no conference games or set Monday/Thursday/Saturday schedules for games, so this could be a bit hectic.  I’ll try to check in once each week to review the games that have been […]

These posts never work out well, but it’s time to predict the GSC West for the 2006-07 season.  A lot of good players are gone, but there are still some good, maybe even great teams within the division.  I’ll do this in reverse order, but let’s start with what the GSC coaches think will be […]

Delta State crushed the GSC competition last year, so they’re the last preview in my preseason series.  Official games start tomorrow, but first let’s discuss the 2006 conference champs. 05-06 Recap The Statesmen looked like a Division-I team playing in the comparatively-lowly GSC last year, with an early-season loss at North Alabama being their only […]

The Arkansas-Monticello Boll Weevils are next on my list of GSC previews.  Central Arkansas finished third in the division last season, but they have moved on to the Southland Conference in Division I, so second-place UAM is now the seventh team in this series. 05-06 Recap UAM looked very strong heading into last season, with […]

The Bisons were the victors tonight, but I wasn’t thrilled with the result. Lipscomb came out on top, 81-63, but they didn’t pull away until late in the second half. After a huge early run, LU limped into halftime ahead by 9, and Harding actually took a lead at one point early in the second […]

Tonight in Nashville, the Harding Bisons will play their last exhibition game against the Lipscomb Bisons.  That’s right, both teams incorrectly use “Bisons” as the plural for “Bison.”  It’s truly remarkable. If you’re not familiar, these schools have a bit of shared history, with Harding having been founded by one of Lipscomb’s founders.  Both share […]
