The Bisons’ season ended on Saturday in what had to be a frustrating shooting performance for the entire team. Harding made just 3 of 21 three-point attempts and lost to eventual GSC champion Arkansas Tech 73-63. The Wonder Boys owned the Bisons on the boards in this game, nabbing 20 of 38 offensive rebound chances […]

Loss at SAU, Win vs ATU mark odd Bison split
This past week’s split leaves the Bisons at 5-5, tied for fourth in the GSC West. They’re barely hanging on to a tourney berth, but hanging on nonetheless. The Bisons staked out a big lead on Thursday at Southern Arkansas, but the Muleriders made threes and won the rebounding battle to take the game in […]
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 […]
Gulf South Conference Preview 2008-2009
These previews will be in descending order, using the team’s 2007-08 net efficiency, which I think is the best metric of overall team quality. Christian Brothers 2007-2008 Record: 22-10 Net Efficiency: +13.5 The Bucs have some significant losses: perennial star forward Kevin Weybright, starting guard Justin Ray, and reserve guard Roberto Casiano.

Making the GSC Tournament: Possible Scenarios
The Bisons cut down the nets after last night’s game, since it was the first time in the 50-year history of the program that the Harding men finished tied for a conference (or really the division) championship. They still have some work to do, though, if they want to win a GSC Championship and make […]
Overtime loss, televised win make for an exciting weekend
Arkansas Tech 87, Harding 82 (OT) [TABLE=94] It doesn’t get much more simple than this: had Harding taken care of the basketball in the last few minutes of regulation and in overtime, they would be 10-2 and have clinched at least a tie for the division lead. Despite a solid all-around shooting performance (even with […]
Weekend in Review: Bisons lose their first GSC game
Arkansas Tech 64, Harding 60 Thursday night’s game was a battle between GSC West unbeatens, and Arkansas Tech edged Harding in Searcy, 64-60. The Wonder Boys have emerged this year as a very good team because of their strong backcourt of Darren Tarver and Terrance Whiters. Add a handful of efficient role players, and it’s […]
