Fast Paced Action & Heart filled efforts by the Players! |
The Valparaiso Crusaders Men's Basketball Team began the 2008-2009 Season with a decisive win against Marian College of Indianapolis, IN - Final Score 87-56. The outcome of the game was really not in question from the opening tip-off. The Crusader's shot 51.4% in the first half and 61.3% in the second half from the field. That was a blistering shooting performance albeit the Crusader's scored 52 points, yes 52 points inside the paint to 16 that Marian had. Valpo had more size and quickness than Marian and it showed in the final stats!

Will he make this shot ? |
Student Super Fans dress the part of CRUSADERS ! |
Valpo led by Michael Rogers' 23 points : 11-14 from the field. Following Rogers was Cameron Witt whose inside the paint play gave him 16 points and 8 of 11 from the field. This was a mediocre test for the Crusader's as the "real" test" will start this Tuesday, November 18th at the ARC when Central Florida comes to town. The Golden Knights are a very good Conference USA Team and have a standout guard Jermaine Taylor that is a projected 2nd round pick in the NBA Draft this year! They are a well coached/disciplined team that will test the Crusaders on both ends of the court! Come join us & see -> click here for Ticket Information.

aww, the sounds of college basketball is in the air again and I get to follow another season of Crusader basketball right here.
I am SOO glad bball season is here! We're HUGE Duke fans here! With 3 family members having attended, we HAVE to be Duke fans. Love the season...
Love your photos too! Great Localism post.
Danny: Thanks for the reply....yep here we go again College Basketball is underway. Should be a trying - interesting and exciting season
Debe: Coach K is def one of my all time favorite coaches and truly he is the classiest coach to ever be in the game. Duke always has year in and year out great teams. To be honest, I am an IU Grad - but considering all that has gone on in Bloomington..I dont even know if we have a team this year - LOL... we do - seriously but I think it has 8 FRESHMAN..OH MY...it is gonna be a long season for IU and Coach Crean (who I have personally met and is a class act !!) Good Luck to the Blue Devils this season !
