Flames extend to a 43-29 lead....

If anyone knows who these guys are on the floor let me know... Because these are not the Flames that lost 12 in a row... Cabbil, Homesley, Maxwell, AC and Dawson are balling!

It has been so enjoyable go see this team grow. McKay is doing a heck of a job with these guys.

I would love for the following 3 things to happen before next Tuesdays game vs Winthop in the Vines:
1 #beatpresby
2 get some savvy students to start a word of mouth and social media campaign for their fellow students to come.
3 for Jerry to promote coming in next Mondays Convo and then come out to the game himself.

I would love a rockin crowd to get behind this coach and team and then keep it rollin.

Congrats on the win. It must be nice to have a coach and staff who have an idea as to what the heck they are doing. What Holtmann built in three years is now completely shot to hades. Back to Chuck-led mediocrity in the one sport we seemed to start being competitive in on a yearly basis.

It helps when a player on the opposing team (Who is #5 for your team?) just launches up random shots whenever one finger touches the ball.
