Thursday SCIAC Tournament Men's Soccer vs. CMS

Double Overtime! Sudden death double overtime! And we won! After 102 minutes of an unusually rough game (37 fouls and three yellow cards), Nick headed a corner kick from Cale into the back of the net for the 1-0 victory. Whew! That was too close. Kudos to the large crowd of students, parents, and fans. I expect most of them will be around on Saturday night as we play Pomona in the final SCIAC post season tournament game. Now it's off to bed. These late night nail-biting games are rough. If you see me sleeping in my kennel tomorrow it's only because I have a very busy Saturday - football, women's soccer, men's soccer, and basketball.

SCIAC Tournament Women's Soccer vs. La Verne

Wednesday night at Farquhar Field was a bit cooler than we're used to so Talulah dressed in a shirt for extra warmth. I've got some extra padding built into my svelte frame so I didn't need a coat. Our Lady Bulldogs started off a bit on the cool side as we played Leopards to a 0-0 tie in the first half. However, our offense kicked it into another gear in the second half and we poured in three goals to none to secure another match this Saturday vs. CMS. Outstanding play ladies.

Volleyball vs. Cal Lutheran

It was Senior night at Currier Gym for the Lady Bulldogs but because we're such a young team, we said goodbye to only one player, Dory. We'll miss her in the back row. The Regals of Cal Lu took four games to defeat us tonight. We won the second game and we were really close during the third. It looked like we had the number 15 ranked team in the nation worried. We can build from there.

First Year Seminar 22

It just so happens that one of the First Year Seminars is studying canine behavior. Whether by coincidence or design, our mascot is a canine - and I happen to be the mascot- and my daughter is a canine too - so we both paid them a visit. I must say, for freshman, they were very well behaved. I was able to get most of them to sit down and pose for a picture. That's usually hard to do with freshman. Next time I'll see if they notice the tiger on the couch or the wolf at the door... Thanks FYS 22 for letting me drop in.

Saturday Women's Soccer, Senior Night

We graduate four seniors from the lady bulldog pack. All four were honored before a thrilling 1-0 victory over CMS. The weather was soggy and gray but bulldogs thrive in such conditions. We even were treated to some costumes along the sidelines courtesy of the men's team. The win secured the SCIAC championship for the ladies and should give us fans another opportunity to watch a game at Farquhar Field, probably Wednesday, but I'll have to check on the time. Speaking of time, set your clocks back and get another hour of sleep tonight. Great game. Thanks seniors.
