PSAC WEST

Re: PSAC WEST

UPDATED MEN'S STANDINGS



WEST

IUP (8-1, 15-1) - Hawks finally get a break in the schedule. Next four: Edinboro, California, (at) Seton Hill and (at) Clarion.
Slippery Rock (8-1, 11-5) - Bye week for SRU with Clarion and Mansfield.
Pitt-Johnstown (6-3, 11-5) - Hanging around. Impressive blowout of Cal last night. Can they do it on the road? Trip to Morrow next week.
Mercyhurst (5-4, 10-4) - UPJ visits in two days. Lakers should handle them, right?
California (4-5, 6-9) - Vulcans got beat up in Johnstown. Seton Hill's visit sure get them back on track prior to traveling to Indiana next Wednesday.
Gannon (4-6, 6-10) - Knights may be the best team of the bottom half. Should hammer Clarion next prior to short (big) trip across town next week.
Clarion (2-7, 4-9) - Next stop: Hammermill
Edinboro (1-8, 4-10) - Scots led Gannon by 8 at halftime last night. Then got blown out. Trip to the KCAC isn't a good remedy to cure a lost season.
Seton Hill (1-8, 3-12) - New Coach has come under Message Board fire after his first 15 games at helm. Not a good sign.


EAST

Shippensburg (8-2, 14-4) - Seems the Red Raiders may have fell asleep on the ride to Lock Haven. And, didn't wake up. That's a real bad loss.
West Chester (7-2, 11-5) - Suddenly hot Lock Haven visits Friday night. Rams are pretty hot, too.
East Stroudsburg (7-2, 10-5) - Wouldn't want to be Bloomsburg right now.
Millersville (5-4, 9-7) - They haven't gone away yet but still need a signature win. It's coming.
Kutztown (5-5, 11-7) - BRUTAL stretch looms for KU. Contender or Pretender? Story about to be told.
Lock Haven (5-5, 6-7) - Upset of Ship has to be one of LHU's biggest wins in years. And, years.
Bloomsburg (2-7, 5-9) - Gotta take 2 of next 3 (ESU, Seton Hill, at Mansfield). Can kind of guess the two, of course.
Mansfield (0-10, 1-14) - Next two: Slippery Rock and (at) Shippensburg. Say a prayer. Or, 10.

Re: PSAC WEST

It couldn't possibly be the softer competition could it?

They had a soft stretch earlier in the season (Mansfield, Bloom, Lock Haven) and went 1-2. The schedule certainly has something to do with it, but the win over UPJ is certainly encouraging and the way they are winning helps also. Reilly has found a lineup that can put pressure on the opponents and hit a few outside shots.

Not saying that this team will contend for the upper echelon of the PSAC, but the outlook certainly isn't as bleak as it was two weeks ago.

IUP will be cheering for you all but one game the rest of the way. It will be interesting to see the new GU lineup play Mercyhurst and SRU in the coming weeks.

I don't know of a place where MEC attendance numbers are kept like this (and I recognize it's possible I just didn't look hard enough). But I did go back through box scores where the official attendance is recorded, and over their 8 home games so far, WLU is averaging 991 a game, which would be good for second in the West just shy of IUP. Not bad at all. Our low was 599 for the Christmas break game with Tiffin, and our high was 1,286 vs. Glenville State (the game that saw WLU break the team record for points in a game). Not a bad spread. And this doesn't even take into account the upcoming FSU, Concord, or WJU visits to the arena. So, it's good to see that the WLU faithful seem to rival the IUP faithful in this way. I'd be willing to bet the rest of the MEC is just a putrid as the rest of the West, but I can't say for sure.

MEC Average Attendance to date:

Fairmont State - 1,016
West Liberty - 990
Glenville State - 645
Notre Dame - 483
Charleston - 431
Concord - 413
Shepherd - 362
UVA-Wise - 325
Wheeling Jesuit - 295
Urbana - 177
WVW - 129


You can find these on the conference web site under statistics. They get updated after each day of games.

This is typically the 'low point' for the whole season. The PSAC students come back this weekend. They've been off campus for about 6 weeks now.

Thanks for finding that for me. And nice to see that a few of the MEC schools carry their weight a bit attendance-wise. And our bottom-feeders are quite so low either. But some fairly standard looking numbers there.

That Ship number has always been a major disappointment. That's friends and family of the players time. Student body is busy partying on Richard Avenue.

Re: PSAC WEST

The whole league is now dark tomorrow. I believe that all games have been moved to Monday. Feels like overkill to declare a statewide state-of-emergency, but it is what it is.
