Re: I'm jumping on the bandwagon!
Nothing casual about how this team goes about their business. Up 11 with a minute to go and they’re running plays and executing. What a difference. That's what culture looks like "Marie-Paule Foppossi threw herself to the Hagan Arena floor in pursuit of a loose ball. Saint Joseph’s was about t...

With the conference schedule half over, or just over half over if the George Mason game isn't rescheduled, it's probably time to keep track of our seeding possibilities for the A10 tournament, and for the 3rd year in Cox' 4 seasons we're tracking the bottom of the conference. We're tied for 10th pla...
