A somewhat busy weekend for the Griff athletic teams. But with Hockey and Basketball getting going, it should be a more active report in the coming weeks. So who did what?
Mens Hockey.
Well the Ice Griffs on their first of 3 road trips. Opened with split with Holy Cross. On friday they lost 3-2, with the Crusaders scoring twice in the third to pull out a victory. Josh Heidinger(3g) and Dave Cianfrini(4g) scored for the Griffs, and Bryce Luker took the loss. On Saturday they took their revenge by beating Holy Cross 4-2 in Worcester. With Kyle Bushee played the hero with 3 points. Weeks (1g), Wright(1g) and Heidinger (4g) also tallied for the Griffs while Andrew Loewen got his first win of the year.
Next up two games at American International next friday and saturday.
Ladies Basketball.
The Women opened up their season at West Virginia and took the beating that could be predicted, losing 76-49 in Morgantown. Micayla Drysdale was the leading scored for the Griffs with 13 and Brittani Russell followed with 11 points. Shooting 35.6% for the game isn't lighting it on fire, but they are playing a tougher Big East team and only were 61.1% at the line. If they want to do anything this year the ladies gotta put in the free points. Laquita Owens led the Mountaineers with 21 points.
Next up Colgate at the KAC on Monday at 7pm.
Mens Basketball
The Men haven't played yet but have two games on the schedule this week. Tuesday the home opener against Colgate at 7:30 at the Koessler Athletic Center, then a much tougher test on Friday when they head into Penn State to take on the Nittany Lions. That game can be seen on ESPN 360 so fire up those computers and watch the Griffs take on a Big Ten Opponent. That game starts at 7:00pm.
Women's Volleyball
The ladies finished off the season strong winning their last 4 of 5. But it was too little too late and will not qualify for the playoffs. But still a strong season finishing 10 and 8 in the MAAC. They won their last two matches of the season, beating Manhattan on Sunday and Saint Peters on Saturday.
Other sports
The Men and Women of the Cross Country team went to Boston this weekend to compete in the NCAA Northeast Meet. The Men finished 26 out of 34 and the women finished 24 out of 36. Which isn't that bad, for a school that doesn't put any money into cross country. And they both beat Niagara, which is the most important stat. Suck on that Purple Eagle runners.
Next Week ECAC Championships.
