Men's basketball vs Bethany
YsuPride:
Should be an easy game. Ysu by 30.
mudclods:
First ever meeting between the schools. Bethany is 4-8 and are giving up over 91 a game on average.
This is Bethany's 3rd game in as many days, 4th in the last 5, and they play Saturday as well so that will be 5 games in 7 days...seems odd. They lost to D1 Eastern Kentucky 121-56 on Saturday, beat D3 Grove City 84-70 Tuesday and lost to D2 117-81 last night.
Wish YSU could have found some other D1 schools to play, 4 non D1 games this year is way too many. YSU though wasn't real crisp in their first 2 non D1 games; however, that was before Brett Thompson got inserted into the lineup and started playing well beginning with the Dayton game.
Double ET:

Listening the coach’s comments on his news conference, he said YSU had to find replacements (Bethany & another ream) when Niagara and Western Illinois pull out of schedule late. Western Illinois actual paid us $25000 to break the contract. Niagara dropped out because of NCAA rule/procedure violations. He was appreciative that Bethany was gracious enough to step in playing the game.

Coach Calhoun said he is related to the best player on Bethany team. Son of his uncle I believe. Kind of interesting tidbit.
