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 […]

Bisons shoot their way past West Alabama in GSC Tourney
Great three-point shooting and solid defense carried the Bisons to an opening-round victory last night in the GSC Tournament. Harding defeated West Alabama 82-56, and the Bisons got out to such a hot start that it was never a close game. Sam Brown led the team with four threes and 16 points, but three other […]
Bisons play it dangerously close, but reach GSC Tourney yet again
Quick aside for starters: Unlike pretty much every D-I conference (and most in D-II), not everyone makes the GSC tournament. Since it’s such a large conference, only the top 5 teams in each 8-team division make it, and the #4-5 teams have to play a first-round game while everyone else gets a bye. This works […]
Weekend losses drop Bisons to 5-7 in GSC
Christian Brothers 77, Harding 67 #10 Christian Brothers visited Searcy on Thursday hoping to get a little revenge for Trent Morgan’s buzzer-beater earlier this season in Memphis. They did just that, holding the Bisons to 36% shooting from the field in a 77-67 win. Nick Kohs and Reggie Peyton scored 45 of CBU’s points, while […]
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 […]
Bisons topple Reddies + Other Notes
Thursday night, the Bisons defeated Henderson State 73-60, evening their GSC record at 4-4. They needed to win that one, since it’s arguably their easiest conference game, and the schedule only gets tougher from this point forward. Kevin Brown and Trent Morgan each had 19 points, although Morgan required 18 shots to get to his […]
Harding played basketball games last week?
I actually knew they did, but I’ve been moving pretty constantly since the middle of last week, and I haven’t had the chance to write up game summaries. It’s a good thing I don’t blog for a living, although I bet I could be decent at it if I didn’t have a pesky regular job. […]
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 […]
