This will be a tough year for the Polar Bears but I'd tell the kids not to get discouraged and just to go out and play their game no matter what the outcome is.

Great opening game for the Greendevils... 25 for sophomore Eastin, and rounded out a double double with 12 boards. Also 13 from sophomore Lovell. Good job by a lot of role players also, helping pull away in the second half when Eastin and senior PG Chris Young went out with fouls... With a lot of young talent, all looks to be good with Dayton basketball for the next few years...

 

Bracken has some talent, and didn't play that bad, and played a close game even up til halftime. They were doing well on the inside with big #55 working for position, but as the Devils shooters got hotter, the Polar Bears seemed to go away from the inside game and try to match the devils shot for shot, which proved to be a tough task tonight. Kinda went away from their game a little bit there, and then started losing there heads in the last couple minutes. When the half courters are falling though, its a pretty good indication is going to be a long night...

Congrats to the GreenDevils and to Coach Dilts. I hope this is the 1st of many.

The Polar Bears did not look good at all tonight but lucky for them and Augusta, who also lost their season opener, they've got a whole season ahead to right the wrongs. I also think it's way too early to decide teams' fates, good or bad. When graduation takes lots of talent from a team it thrusts kids into positions they've never been in and that can take time to get used to. All of these regular season games are prep for March. And if you can hit your stride then, ANYTHING can happen!!

Ouch, I picked BC. Polars Bears did lose alot to graduation though.

Don't know if they started or not last night but Coach Fite needs to get plenty of minutes or even starting time to 2 freshman(Cummings and Jefferson). Hopefully the boys team won't be like the girls and play(start) upperclassman over more talented and basketball experienced freshman and sophomores.

Good win for Dayton. I'm impressed. I did think they were going to have much this year. I don't care who you are playing 25 and 12 is solid for a sophmore.

Thanks Polar Cat. Have seen enough BC basketball to know this is your go to guy for the next 4 years. Are any 8th graders playing JV?
