Nothing like a test run with Clarion. Lol. This should be interesting.
Mercyhurst joins IUP as I beleive the only two schools selling alcohol at basketball games.
If you can do it .. crazy not to do so. IUP has a line every game of people dying to pay $9 for a 12 oz can of Coors Lite. The money is good.

So who are the teams that are playing the best right now? Clearly that honor goes to 13-2 University of Charleston who are on an 8 game winning streak. Following them are:
West Liberty who is on a 6 game heater after last nights W over 10-4 Fairmont.
Shippensburg who are also on a 6 game run compliments of last nights W over 7-9 Bloomsburg.
West Virginia State on a 5 game run after going into 4-11 Notre Dame last night to grab the W.
IUP on a 5 game heater after smoking 5-9 Boro at Boro last night.
Cal-U winner of 5 in a row after beating 2-12 Seton Hill.
Mercyhurst has won 4 in a row after a W over 14-4 UPJ.
On current 3 game runs in the Atlantic:
Wheeling
Va State
Lock Haven

Interesting spin. LOL.
Spinning is when a person says their team should be ranked higher than yours because the 14-3 team their team beat is playing "better" than the 14-3 team your team beat! THAT would be spinning.

I was surprised, but Lock Haven has had some close games this year, and road games, even in the PSAC, are always harder to win. I'd like to have a few bucks for every time over the years I've seen Ship stomp someone at home and then either lose to them or struggle to win in the away game. College ball, especially with the three-pointer, is all about streaks, and if you hit almost any team in the league on the wrong night you're going to have problems. With about 12 minutes left in the Ship-Bloom game last night I wasn't feeling at all secure with a seven-point lead and Nedrow picking up his third foul. Then, about six minutes later, the lead was 27 points and we were starting to clear the bench. The Ship reserves were excellent.
I had been saying in the 'Vegas Odds' little write-ups that if you looked closely at Lock Haven, you'd see they are a pretty decent team. They got stomped at the KCAC, but other than that, they have been right in every game. They have 6 losses by 5 points or less (against some good teams). They took Cal and SRU to the wire (on the road) and also had UPJ dead in the water before somehow coughing up a 26-point lead.
Lock Haven isn't great. Don't get me wrong. But, they have two nice guards and a couple nice post players. No bench. The guards, Ceruitti and Christian Kelly, could both be in any rotation in the PSAC. They are legit and both scoring near 20 ppg. Both are 6'4" and upperclassmen.
They aren't a team to take lightly -- and, I'm guessing that's what West Chester did the other night. This won't be there last big win this year. They'd be a scary team to play in the conference tournament as on the wrong night they could hurt you.
