Ian Johnson held scoreless (???) in road loss to Chattanooga, 59-65

Ian Johnson...scoreless? That is quite a feat by UTC.

However, don't get too down....2 conference losses are not that big a deal. Going undefeated in the SoCon last year was wonderful, but it rarely happens. Keep in mind that Davidson finished tied for first in the division the prior three years, with only an 11-5 conference record each of those three years. The other teams in the division will falter along the way. So the Wildcats may still lose another game or two in conference and have a great shot at a #1 seed in the SoCon tourney.

Great things are still to come......conference tourney time is when it really counts.

Great site, Wells. I like Johnson, but wish we had another banger down low like either of the Kosmalski bros.

Keep up the good stuff.

Thanks, guys. I'm enjoying it. Hopefully I won't lose steam!

By the way, how did you know who I am? Not that I mind at all. I was just curious.

I guess that question was for Rick, a classmate of mine.
