1969-1970 Game 24 Results

With 15:01 left we trail 6-10. They jumped up by 7 very quickly, but we've settled down just a little bit. Nason has a three with his good to see.

With 7:36, it looks like another embarrassing offensive performance is in the cards. We trail 11-26. We're at 22% from the field, and just can't hit a thing.

Two separate times we got it down to 11 and had the ball with a chance to get it single digits and each time we'd blow it and they'd go on a little mini-run. Nason does hit a three at the buzzer to make the half time score Chattanooga 43 - Appalachian State 31. Nason has 8 but McLoughlin leads us with 9 off the bench, but curiously no rebounds. Jenkens has 14 for the Mocs and their center Davis already has 11 boards.

Bracey nails a 3 with 12:26 left and Chattanooga calls timeout and now we trail just 49-53. McLoughlin is up to 14 and Nason and the gaurds have gotten a few threes to fall. Caskey is single handedly doing all the work for the Mocs in the 2nd half, he's quickly up to 17 points and I think at least 9 are in the second half.

Call timeout with 9:53 because we're down 49-59 and about to be right back where we were at half time.

We battle back and Serrano hits a free throw line jumper with 4:41 left to get us to 59-62. The Mocs call timeout. Mcloughlin is up to 18 and 6, and probably will be in the starting lineup next game. Bartell has 10 points, 7 boards and 4 assists. All 3 starting perimeter players each have to 10 points for us.

Chattanooga gets called for a shot clock violation with 2:06 left, and we're down 66-68. Bartell misses a three, but Nason gets the put back tip-in and we're all tied at 68. Crossman misses a short jumper for the Mocs, Ramage rebounds, passes it up to Bartell who finds Serrano for an open attempt at 3, he misses it, but Ramage grabs the rebound and lays it in, and we lead 70-68 and I think it's our first lead of the game with 1:00 exactly left. Chattanooga calls time.

Gerdes gets fouled by Nason with 26 seconds left on a shot, Gerdes is 78% from the line, but his ratings aren't impressive. He misses one of them, and Nason grabs the rebound and he's fouled and will shoot two. He's at 63% and seems to make one of two very frequently.

He does just that and we lead 71-69 with 20 seconds left. They inbound it and backup center Elias Wright is the one who shoots it from the top of the key and he clanks it and we win the game, final score: Appalachian State 71 - Chattanooga 69. The Mocs continue to slide down the stretch and we come away with a pretty improbable win, especially with the way we started and how many times we had to battle back. We probably led for about 3% of that game. McLoughlin with 18 and 6 is easily the start of the game, even hit a couple of three pointers.

Great victory! We're now tied in the loss column with Chattanooga and are just one game behind Valdosta State, who we beat.

We're back at home after the road trip and we get to face a pretty sorry team. They've been bad offensively, they've been bad defensively, there really isn't anything they have done well this season. We don't have the most advantageous schedule, but we've got a chance to win the conference if we can win quite a few games down the stretch.

PG: Scott, 5'7", Senior: 3 year starter, averaged 13.5 a game last year. Tiny guard, is having a really bad shooting season compared to last year, has the talent to go off for 20 any night.

SG: Jacob, 6'3", Senior: 3 year starter, averaged 13.5 a game last year. Another guy having a down season shooting the ball compared to his ratings.

SF: Hibbert, 6'8", Senior: 3 year starter averaged 8 and 9.5 last year. Big wing with a decent offensive game inside, but is an excellent rebounder and is averaging close to a double double this year.

PF: Dominquez, 6'8", Junior: Played 9 minutes a game last year. Active on the offensive glass and has a little bit of an offensive game.

C: Major, 6'8", Senior: Played 22 minutes a game last year and averaged 10 and 4. Has some real offensive skills, but is a horrific rebounder.

Bench: Miner is a 6'3" redshirt freshman guard with not very many skills and way too much playing time. Endicott gets 11 minutes a game inside as their reserve post, he has an okay offensive game with some range and will rebound. Horrible defensively, though. Wargo has some offensive punch to bring off the bench as a 6'0" shooting guard. Manley is a true freshman point guard who can pass it a little and knock down a three. Turnover prone, though.

Coach: Bart Merriman, 54 years old. 193-286 career record. 16th season at Georgia Southern. Really good scout, horrible elsewhere. He's kind of kept them afloat for a while, but it's probably time to move on.

Their talent level seems to be quite a bit better than their record, and they've had a couple of guards just have bad luck seasons. So, suddenly I'm a little nervous about this game, despite being at home and GSU's horrible record.

1969-1970 Game 25 Results

I thought about starting McLoughlin after his excellent game, but decide against it and he'll come off the bench again.

10:52, media time out, and we lead 18-13. Bartell has 2 fouls, but Nason has a couple of three pointers and we're doing a good job on the glass.

Georgia Southern calls a time out with 2:05, and we lead 38-32. We've been trading a lot of three pointers, Nason has 13 points and 4 three pointers and is finally knocking down shots. Bass has a couple of three pointers and is playing more on the perimeter with the foul trouble to Bartell.

We slip up a bit, but still hold the lead at half, Appalachian State 40 - Georgia State 36. Nason leads us with 13 while Bass is at 6 and 6. It's nice that we're hitting shots after being cold so often the last few games. Right now Georgia Southern is sticking in with us because they aren't turning the ball over.

With 14:51 left we lead 49-45. Serrano is up to 12, we've just been trading baskets the first few minutes with both teams having a lot of success.

10:53 left, we lead 53-50. Much of the same, trading baskets, but this time at a much slower rate.

Bass gets a steal and a dunk on the other end to give us a 10 point lead, 67-57 and GA SO calls time and things are looking pretty good. Ramage has a quiet 12 points and 3 boards, while Serrano is now to 15 points to go with 7 rebounds and a couple of assists.

3:07, last media timeout and we lead 80-72. Georgia Southern has been on the verge of being buried for the last 5 minutes and seem to hit a 3 or get a bucket to just barely stay alive. Nason is to 21 points, while Bartell and Serrano are now tied at 15. Serrano and Bass both just need a rebound to get a double double.

They hit a three at the buzzer to make the final score look a little closer: Appalachian State 85 - Georgia Southern 80. A lot of great stat lines, every starter ended up in double figures, even though Serrano nor Bass got their double double. Nason had his first strong game in a while, going 6-10 from beyond the arc. We survive a very hot shooting night by our opponent, and really got pretty lucky to win that one. 14-11 (8-4) in conference, guarantees us our first .500 conference record since 1965.

They have played an extremely easy schedule this year. They are without their center Rodrigues who was averaging 10 and 6.6.

PG: Truman, 5'11", Sophomore: Transferred from UT-Martin. Besides being a good free throw shooter he doesn't add a whole lot.

SG: Risley, 6'1", Senior: Played 18.6 minutes a game last year and averaged 8 points. Walk on who can shoot the three and will be aggressive hunting his shot.

SF: Alfaro, 6'7", Sophomore: Started last year and averaged 12.6 points and 4.6 rebounds. Oddly enough, he's considered a top 10 prospect right now. I can see why offensively, he has a lot of talent even if if his percentages never have been very strong (just 41% from the field in his career. Decent passer and doesn't defend. Odd how FBCB picks their pro guys.

PF: Chalfant, 6'8", Senior: Has started 37 games in his career. Starting for the injured Rodrigues. He's played mainly the 3 so far this year, and will be put out of position in this one. He does score the ball well inside and averaged 10 a game as a sophomore. Active on the offensive glass, but isn't a PF defensively.

C: Thomas, 6'11", Senior: 3 year starter, averaged 9 and 8 last season. Having a strong senior season and is on his way to shooting over 50% every season, which is a major feat in this game. Bad defender, but a threat for a double double every game.

Bench: Ireland is a post that I think should be starting over Chalfant right now. The 6'8" junior is competent across the board. Swaim is a 6'2" freshman who has a nice three point shot and already defends well. A couple of other guys will see a few minutes, but they don't go very deep on their bench.

Lucas Woodson, 44 years old. 18-8 career record. 1st year at Furman.

The former Louisville assistant replaced Anton Penner who retired. Woodson is solid across the board, besides being a weak recruiter. If he can get talent to his program he has a chance to be successful.

They have a really strong record for a Southern Conference team, but they've played, as previously mentioned, a garbage schedule. They do have talent, and it is at their place, so I don't anticipate a win, but I don't think they are as talented as 18-8 either. Still have a chance at a regular season championship, but really need a win here.

1969-1970 Game 26 Results

With 16:47 left, Furman calls timeout and we lead 10-3. Serrano has a couple of baskets for 4 points and Bartell has 4 as well. We do have early foul trouble, we had 4 team fouls in the first 80 seconds. Bass has 2 and is sitting.

11:55 media timeout and we lead 22-15. Serrano has 11, and is 5-7 from the field and is getting a quick breather. Ramage picked up his 2nd foul as well, and McLoughlin is resting, so we currently have a Woodworth/Sanders front line.

With 6:09 left, we've both gone cold and can't quit fouling, we now trail 26-29. Serrano is stuck on 11 points, and we have 12 team fouls. We have 5 players with 2 fouls currently, every starter but Serrano.

Nason picks up his 3rd with 1:39 left and we trail 33-38. Serrano is up to 18, but nobody else is really hitting shots and Furman is continuing to get to the line.

Both teams trade some buckets down the stretch to make the half time score: Furman 43 - Appalachian State 39. Serrano has 20 and Bartell 10. A balanced attack by Furman with several guys getting chances at the free throw line.

Alfaro hits back to back threes and I call timeout with 19:17 left, because we're already down 39-49.

Serrano gets a steal and passes it ahead to Nason who lets a three loose and nails it, forcing Furman to call timeout with 13:26 left, and we trail just 51-53. It's Serrano's 5th assist of the game and Nason now has 15 points out of the blue.

They go on a 6-0 run, and Nason then picks up his 4th foul and will have sit with us trailing 51-59, with 11:23 left.

7:41 left and it's all went to hell, we trail 56-68. Both teams have gone a little cold, we've just gone colder. Chalfant has 15 and 10 for the Paladins.

Bartell gets called for a charge with 3:41 left to signal the last media timeout of the game, and it's a killer because we cut the lead to 63-71 and a basket there would have made the game interesting.

We do get slightly closer before the end of the game, but we could never get a stop when we needed too. Final score ends up being: Furman 77 - Appalachian State 70. Serrano ends up with 29, his season high (career high 34), and it's one of the first times all season he really looked like a star. Serrano, Bartell and Nason played alright, they just had almost zero help. 5 points out of Ramage on just 3 shots in his 24 minutes was a killer. Furman had a couple of nice runs over the course of the game and in the end that was enough.

1969-1970 Game 27

February 21st, 1970 vs Davidson Wildcats (14-11) [6-7]
Conference: Southern
Location: Davidson, North Carolina
1968-69 record: 8-21 (4-12)

Davidson is a 9 prestige school, even worse than us, and they are having one of their best seasons in 20 years. Besides a miracle run to a NCAA berth after a 14-21 (5-11) season in 63-64, they've missed all postseason play for two decades. Once upon a time they were a very strong program thanks to a strong initial prestige rating of 66. They rode that for a while but that's all long gone. They did get quite a few NCAA appearances out of it and a Sweet Sixteen in 1916-17.

PG: Geis, 6'3", Sophomore: Started last year and averaged 7.6 points, 3.4 rebounds and 4.2 assists. A statsheet stuffer with a nice three point shot that he's never been able to find much success with. Should have a strong junior and senior season. Poor defender.

SG: Thorne, 6'5", Sophomore: Started last year and averaged 10.3 points a game. Way up to 17 this year, and is shooting 51% from the field, and this season has probably been a fluky one for him. Defends a little and can get in the passing lanes.

SF: Ballew, 6'7", Senior: Played 12 minutes a game last year. Versatile defender who is a capable three point shooter.

PF: Taylor, 6'10", Senior: 4 year starter. Averaged 14.6 points and 8.4 rebounds last year and has very similar numbers this season. Strong defender and very tough on the offensive glass with more than 3 a game. Not going to go for 20+ too often, but will get his buckets and a few putbacks a game.

C: Garnett, 6'11", Senior: 3 year starter averaged 13 and 8 last season. Pretty similar to Taylor, but not as good defensively. Strong on the glass, but not the monster that Taylor is on the offensive side of it.

Bench: Shafer is a 6'9" forward who does a good job on the glass, but isn't much help offensively. Goodling is a freshman with a nice jump shot, and isn't afraid to put it up. Jones is a 5'10" freshman point guard who always gets a couple of minutes a game. Garret is an undersized post at 6'6", but at least he's not talented.

Coach: Royal Davis, 44 years old. 43-72 career record. 4th season at Davidson.

Pretty bad coach, besides being decent defensively. Was an assistant at South Carolina State and Palm Beach Atlantic before getting a head job.

They've got a really strong front line and an interesting backcourt that can cause us problems on a bad night. Their depth isn't much, and if we can get them into foul trouble I think we have a major advantage. The conference title is probably out of reach now, but we're playing for seeding and there are 4 teams with one game either way of us.

1969-1970 Game 27 Results

Both teams are putting up a lot of bricks, and with 15:01 left we lead 7-6. Serrano has 5 points, including a three pointer. Nason picked up 2 quick fouls, which means we get 15 minutes of Bracey this half again.

They go on a 10-0 run out of that media timeout, Bartell hits a 3 to put an end to it, so at the 11:44 mark we trail 10-17. It's Bartell's first basket of the game.

With 6:42 left, we've pulled closer to 17-19. Bartell has 2 fouls now too, but with so little guard depth, I have to at least play one of them. Nason is the one for the moment.

Last media timeout with 3:50 and we trail 27-29. Bartell has 6 points now after his second three pointer. Ramage is up to 8 with 4-5 from the field and he leads the team.

At halftime the score is Davidson 37 - Appalachian State 32. The zone defense has not been strong inside, Garnett leads Davidson with 10 points and has caused us problems. Serrano has 10 to lead the charge for us. Davidson is 8-9 from the line, but has struggled from three, so I guess I'll stay in the zone for now.

15:35 left, and we've taken the lead 44-43. Nason's hit a couple of shots and so has Bass and we've been capitalizing on their turnovers, which they've had at least 4 already this half, for a total of 10 in the game.

10:55 left and we lead 56-46. Nason is up to 15, and he always seem to score in bursts. Ramage has gone for 12 and 6, and him being productive makes a major difference. Bartell just picked up his 4th foul, so he'll sit for a while.

7:20 left, we lead 64-52 and we're starting to slow the pace a little bit to milk some clock. Davidson continues to kill themselves with unforced turnovers.

I call a timeout with 4:40 after a Davidson three pointer makes it 64-60. Garnett has been doing some damage after being dormant for a while and he has 19 points for the Wildcats.

Serrano gets a steal and is fouled with 1:38 and it finally brings on the last media timeout and after it, he hits both free throws and that gives us the lead 72-64.

Davidson hits some threes and we only hit some of our free throws and with 1:03 left, we lead 73-70. Davidson doesn't need to foul anymore, so we're just going to take our time with the ball, and right before the shot clock is going to go off, Serrano puts up a three off a Bartell pass and nails it and it gives him 26 points, 14 of which have come in the last 4 minutes.

That's the clincher and when the time runs out it the score is Appalachian State 78 - Davidson 70 Serrano goes nuts from three, 4-12. That's probably a few too many threes for him to shoot. Ramage with a very efficient game, and Nason was strong and a nice run or two. Bracey continues to be very unproductive when he plays. I'm glad we held on to that one, as that would have been disastrous for our chances at a bye in the conference tournament.

February 26th, 1970 vs Western Carolina Catamounts (10-17) [7-7]
Conference: Southern
Location: Cullowhee, North Carolina
1968-69 record: 12-18 (8-8)

Western Carolina (WCU) is a 20 prestige team that really hasn't had a history too much better than ours. They made back to back NCAA tournaments in 35-36, which is 66% of their NCAA appearances all time. They have made the NIT a handful of times since then, but haven't had an appearance in the NCAA's since those back to back showings.

Their entire roster is healthy currently. They've shot the ball pretty well this year and do a pretty good job on the glass. They are okay defensively, but they don't turn anyone over and as long as we don't make unforced turnovers we should be able to score on them pretty well.

PG: Stevens, 6'1", Sophomore: Played 6 minutes a game last year. Pretty good passer who will be even better in a couple of years. Not much offensively otherwise, just 7.6 points a game.

SG: Tamayo, 6'4", Freshman: Having a pretty solid freshman year. Shoots the ball well, 43% from beyond the arc. Helps out a little on the glass, he's basically a better version of our Bracey.

SF: Sasser, 6'10", Sophomore: Started 6 games last year and played 12 minutes a game. Major size for a wing, but is definitely a tweener. Can't defend any position, but can get the ball to the basket and has some ability inside with nearly zero three point shot.

PF: Cantara, 6'7", Senior: 4 year starter, averaged 6.5 and 6 last year. Really underwhelming for a 4 year starter. He's easily having his best season of his career this year, numbers wise with 7.4 and 7.7, which says a lot about a 4 year starter. Good rebounder, decent scorer with a three point shot. Will block a shot a game.

C: Hawkins, 6'8", Junior: 3 year starter. Averaged 10.5 and 4.8 last year. Missed some games due to injury this season, but still has had a decent year. Like Cantara he's a big man with some three point range, and was 18-46 this year in 16 games. Okay defender, not much on the glass.

Bench: Macaluso is a 5'11" guard who is a true SG, and can shoot the heck out of the ball while defending nothing. He's at 13.4 a game, and attempts 8 threes a game, coming off the bench, just a sophomore. Digiacomo is a 6'1" freshman who got a few starts due to injuries early in the year. Defends well and can knock down a three. Will never be a big assists guy but will be a very good guard for this league. Alston is their main post reserve. The 6'8" senior is a good offensive rebounder, but average at best everywhere else. Griffis saw 11 starts earlier this year, but is only getting about 5 minutes a game right now. I'd start the 6'6" sharpshooter over Sasser at the 3 for sure. Bowens is a 6'11" senior walkon who is a solid defender and garbage elsewhere, but might see 5-10 minutes this game.

Coach: Chris Baker, 56 years old. 265-232 career record. 4th season at Western Carolina.

Probably the most accomplished coach in the Southern. Once upon a time, he had worked his way up through Cal Poly to San Diego State to Missouri, where he had 4 very mediocre seasons and was fired. He spent 3 years as an assistant at Illinois before getting a head job again. He's a maxed out defensive coach who at least knows a little offense, and a solid recruiter. His first year at WCU, he had them in the NIT. He's had two rough seasons in a row, but with the guard talent he's stockpiling, he'll probably be gone in 3 or 4 years.

They are a pretty weird team, a lot of young, perimeter talent that will be a real problem in a few years. Their post players are very perimeter oriented as well, so they are a team that is capable of getting hot, and those games just seem to happen sometimes. But, on the other hand. They are very young and their post players are pretty weak on the glass, and we're at home, so I like our odds.

1969-1970 Game 28 Results

With 12:02, Bass goes down with an injury and won't be able to return. We trail 13-14. Ramage has 7 and Serrano 6, and they have the entirety of our scoring output so far.

Bartell misses both free throws, and I'm nearly positive that it is the first time he's done that. That's with 8:01 and we're down 16-18. We've yet to hit a three, and just not getting help outside of Serrano and Ramage.

3:25 and we trail 21-25. Bartell misses his next free throw as well, the front end of a 1-and-1 making it 3 in a row. He was 100-114 for the season coming into the game.

Serrano bricks a three point attempt at half, but I can live with it because the score is Appalachian State 27 - Western Carolina 27. We're 5-12 from the line, which hurts. Serrano and Ramage have combined for 18 of our 27. I'm really starting to resent Bracey's total lack of production. 9 minutes with 1 rebound and no shot attempts. We just have so few options, I guess I could play Gattis and see if he'll score a bucket or two. But, a defensive rating of 5 is pretty hard to trot out there.

Fast forwarding to 10:24 left, we trail 35-46. Things are getting out of hand quick as we've been ice cold from the start of the second half, and WCU has finally strung together a couple of shots. Macaluso has 16 off the bench for WCU.

WCU can't miss, we've finally starting hitting some shots but Macaluso and Tamayo are drilling three pointers left and right. three of them for Macaluso in the last 3 minutes alone. With 6:38 left we trail 45-62.

This game is only getting worse. Ramage goes down with an injury with 1:33 left and we're trailing 61-75. Now he and Bass have injuries, and our entire front line could be out for who knows how long. Serrano is the star of this game, he's up to 24 points on 10-19 shooting. Nason's just 2-7 from the field and has been a non factor.

The final score ends up being a pretty big whooping, especially considering it was tied at halftime. Besides Serrano and Ramage for the first 10 minutes, we were pretty pedestrian offensively, and we were not hitting threes and WCU was, especially in the second half and especially Macaluso. Final score: Western Carolina 77 - Appalachian State 63. But, the real big news as far as the rest of the season goes, is the injury status of Bass and Ramage: Bass's is just a bad stinger, and he'll be available in our next game, but limited. Ramage's is a 2 week injury, which means he's out for the conference tournament and unless we make a postseason tournament, probably done for the season. Rough luck.

They've shot the ball well this year from beyond the arc and do a good job at generating turnovers.

PG: Dungan, 6'3", Junior: 3 year starter. Averaged 11.3 points a game last year. Solid defender with a nice three point shot. Not really a point guard, since he doesn't pass it well. Non existent on the glass.

SG: Brooks, 6'2", Senior: 3 year starter. Averaged 7.6 points a game last year. I think he's more of a point guard that Dungan. Okay defender who will grab some steals and will knock down a three.

SF: Hamilton, 6'8", Senior: 3 year starter. Averaged 14.9 a game last year. Having a bit of a down season. Nearly 3 assists a game, and very capable of going for 20. Poor defender.

PF: Williams, 6'7", Sophomore: Played 13 minutes a game last year and averaged 5 points a game. Has some offensive touch around the basket, pretty lackluster everywhere else.

C: Gold, 6'8", Junior: Started 19 games last year and averaged 5 points and 5 rebounds. Good defender and decent rebounder, who offensively is pretty much just jump shots. 59 three pointers attempted this year.

Bench: Mason is the backup point guard, he plays about 8 minutes a game and is a good outside shooter. Thames is a 6'7" post that is active on the offensive glass and little else. Fulford is a talented freshman post who can score and block some shots, but like a lot of guys on this team, can't rebound. McSweeney is a bit banged up, but he's normally their 6th man. He's one of their better defensive guards, but that isn't saying much.

Coach: Glenn Gurrola, 51 years old. 256-305 career record. 3rd season at Elon.

Tremendous coach, especially defensively and is a strong scout as well. Was the coach at College of Charleston for 16 years, maintaining pretty solid records before leaving for an in-conference foe.

They've got a good coach and we're playing them at their place. We have a whole new front line starting this game though, with McLoughlin and Woodworth getting the nods. I'm hoping we can do well on the glass, but not having Ramage and Bass certainly hurts us there.

We're currently in 5th, but have the tie breaker with Wofford, so if we win, we might be able to snag the 4th seed. Worst case scenario, we lose and we're one of 3 9-7 teams, and we would lose the tiebreaker to both and be the 8 seed.

1969-1970 Game 29 Results

13:15 left, we trail 12-13. Serrano and Bartell have combined for 9 of our points. Ideally, we're only going to play 7 players in this game, with Sanders and Bracey the only bench players. Bass is at 77% and I'm not that keen on playing him.

Serrano and Bartell both pick up two fouls in rapid fashion, and it means Levi Gattis, the freshman walk on comes in. Over the course of the next 4 minutes, he hits a couple of threes, has a turnover, gets called for two fouls. With 7:14 left, we lead 22-20. Maybe I should have been playing Gattis all year.

Down the stretch, we trade the lead a few times, but Elon gets the last surge before halftime and they have the lead: Elon 42 - Appalachian State 36. All three starting perimeter players have 2 fouls a piece for us. Bracey actually hit a three, his first since I don't know when. Bartell leads us with 11 and is 5-8 from the field. Gattis hit one more three and is perfect in 3 attempts and has 9 points.

Not looking great with 11:39 left, we trail 40-50 Bartell has yet to score in the second half, but the real problem is that we're being killed on the glass 27-15. Besides McLoughlin, the rest of my team isn't much for rebounds.

6:09 left, media timeout and we're down 47-63 and it's about a wrap on this one. Still getting killed on the boards, and now we're having turnover problems to boot. Dungan has 11 points, 5 boards and 4 assists for Elon.

We cut it to single digits at the very end thanks to a Bartell steal and layup, so the final score looks somewhat competitive: Elon 66 - Appalachian State 58. We were outrebounded by 16 and had just 2 offensive rebounds the entire game. Woodworth, the replacement for Bass, has 1 rebounds in 30 minutes. Pretty rough stuff. Gattis did provide a boost, but he also was in the game when Hamilton was killing us. Still a fun freshman walk on to have. He's averaging 3.7 points in 4.7 minutes, which is good for a 24 point 30 minute average. He's still a minus on +/-, which says something about his defense.

Thorne and Taylor are their studs, while Geis is a very interesting player to me. They've really got pretty good looking stats besides having some turnover problems and not very many three point shooters, so they are a stiff test for a first round matchup. If we win, we play the 2nd seeded Furman Paladins.

1969-1970 Game 30 Results

Bass is just barely shy of 100%, but he'll start at the 4 and send Woodworth back to the bench.

Serrano picks up his 2nd foul on a charging call with 14:15 left and we lead 7-5. Both teams have come out cold. Bartell has already missed 2 free throws and his late season woes continue.

7:09 left, we trail 12-17. Bass and Bartell both have 4 points, and Bartell is 4-7 from the line. Nason's 0-4, and he's hopefully he's not about to have one of *those* Nason games.

Woodworth draws a charge with 3:05 left, which is great, but we are trailing 14-29 and have yet to hit a three pointer. Gattis is in to see if he can be lightning in a bottle. Bass rapidly picked up fouls 2 and 3.

Nason misses two sets of two free throws down the stretch, which is one of the several reasons we're being doubled up at half time. Davidson 36 - Appalachian State 18. Barring a quick reversal, it's looking the first postseason experience of my career is going to be a short one.

15:27 left and we trail 27-47. Serrano has 3 fouls now, but he also leads us with 9 points.

The last media timeout of the season is with 2:58 left and we are getting destroyed, we trail 52-85 The 5 seniors are in, Serrano, Bartell, Nason, Bass and McLoughlin and all 5 will stay in until the end of the game, unless Bass fouls out first.

Bartell hits a 3 at the end to get us to 60, to make the score look slightly better. Davidson 86 - Appalachian State 60. A disappointing end to an up and down season that was really hampered by injuries. We had a horrendous shooting night, 7-30 from beyond the arc, while Garnett killed us yet again. Mckinley Gooding was a perfect 7-7 from the field and 4-4 from beyond the arc.

1970 Postseason

We don't get an invite to any tournament, not that I expected we would. Valdosta State (who is now ranked, and also who we plastered) wins the conference tournament over Davidson who made it all the way to the final after beating us. They get an 11 seed in the tournament.

Chattanooga made the CBI, as did Furman. Elon made it to the Ci.com tournament.

Multi-bid conferences this year, not a good year for the major conferences.

First Weekend, Sweet Sixteen teams
West: (1) Nebraska, (5) Indiana, (7) San Diego and (11) Providence. Biggest upset, (13) Denver over (4) UCONN

Midwest: (1) Illinois, (4) Southern California, (7) DePaul, (3) Nevada. Not a single upset in the 1st round, seed wise and only DePaul's win over Texas A&M has deviated from the seed expectations.

South: (1) Michigan State (4) Kentucky, (2) Baylor, (3) Pittsburgh. Another calm bracket. A few upsets in the 1st round, 12 seed District of Columbia took down TCU.

East: (1) Alabama, (5) Pacific, (2) Rutgers, (3) Boston College. Another run of the mill region. Pacific barely got by 4 seed Cal in the 2nd round, 58-57. Pacific is a 91 prestige school and is probably going to join the Pac-11 next year.

Second Weekend

West: (1) Nebraska vs (11) Providence in the Elite 8, Providence jumps all over them from the start, and Nebraska never gets closer than 6 the rest of the game and the 11th seeded Friars are off the Final Four. Until now, I hadn't realized they also played in the play-in game to even become the 11th seed. Providence is an 84 prestige school and this is their 1st Final Four all time in 20 NCAA appearances.

South: (2) Baylor vs (4) Kentucky in the Elite 8, it's a tight game and Kentucky threatens to pull away several times before Baylor claws back and forces overtime. In the OT though, Kentucky jumps on them and wins by the score of 113-101. Kentucky is a 75 prestige school that has fallen on some hard times recently, but historically have been very strong. This is their 8th Final Four.

Midwest: (1) Illinois vs (3) Nevada, Nevada had a 10 point lead with 8 minutes left, but couldn't hold on and they end up losing 83-79. It ends an excellent season for the Wolf Pack, who normally would be another candidate to join the Pac-11, if Pacific weren't so strong. Illinois has 34 wins now. This is their 4th Final Four.

East: (1) Alabama vs (3) Boston College, Boston College had them doubled up 30-15 in the 1st half. Alabama cuts under 10 a few times, but never really threatens and BC wins 81-66. BC is a 98 prestige school and this is just their 4th Final Four appearance in 42 NCAA tournament bids.

Final Four:

(11) Providence vs (4) Kentucky: Kentucky pretty well holds Providence at arm's length the entire game and ends up winning by the final of 92-84.

(1) Illinois vs (3) Boston College. Illinois jumps out in front 7-0, and maintains the lead the entire game from tip to buzzer and really piles it on at the end to win by the score of 92-70.

Championship:

(4) Kentucky vs (1) Illinois: Illinois jumps all over them, forcing Kentucky to play catch up most of the game, before they finally tie it with 11 minutes to go. They never do take the lead and Illinois wins the national championship 71-61. Senior guard Tony Parker, he of the 27.1 a game scoring average had 22 points to lead the Illini.

1969-1970 Season recap (15-15) [9-7]

When we were 14-11 (8-4), I was really feeling good about this season, thinking we'd snag a top 4 seed, and catch a few breaks and have a chance at winning the whole tournament, especially with the way destroyed the eventual champs of the league Valdosta State. Get a decent record, make a run in the tournament and maybe get to play in the Ci.com tournament or something if we don't win the whole thing. Anyways, none of that happened. But, it was a season that was derailed by injuries, a high number even with the settings the way they are.

We had some good perimeter players who did have some consistency issues, and we lose a lot of experience. I do like the guards we're bringing in, but I anticipate some growing pains as well with a very young backcourt next season.
