Slow news week overall, as evidenced by the entire week’s worth of posts. Monday I will start a capsule on two different subjects, one will be match-up capsules regarding our 10 opponents next year, and the other will be a “State of Program” analysis of the different sports programs that we have and provide some…

It has been a relatively slow news day the past couple of days, and tomorrow I will have some bits and pieces that I will post on the Saturday Roar. Today, I found another newspeice from yesteryear, courtesy of Sports Illustrated circa Fall 1964. For your enjoyment- Ring That Bell -09/21/64 THE TRADITION The road…

First, congratulations to HC Same Walker and Seniors DeVondrick Walker, Daniel Ehambe, Tyrie Wooten, Kameron Price, and Donavon Gage on their careers as Lions, but before I sound too fatalistic, we will most likely see these guys at least one more in the NCAA Division II Tournament, just due to Strength of Schedule with quality…

              Last night was a fantastic night for the Lion Basketball team. First, for those of you who I met and paid me compliments on this site, your words mean the world to me. It gives me reason and drive to continue doing what I do for this University…

I will say this is a little bit of a surprise, to me at least. I saw Anderson at the Game last night rooting on the Men’s team, but I had no idea she was going to do something like this, I really dont know what to say, other than I am taken aback by…

What a huge win. The Lions started the game out strong and then ran into road blocks and awful officiating, but pulled off a huge win against Eastern New Mexico 74-73 . Whew what a game. Watched the first half live and then listened to most of the second half on the radio heading home.…

Women Fall To TSU in LSC Quarterfinals. This is not the way the season should have ended for the TAMUC Lady Lions, but considering all things, and the late season stretch and knocking off TSU in the last home game, things could have been different. What happened last Saturday just had the script flipped and…

Getting right to it…. Overall-The spring game was overall very much a success and a good indicator of where this group is as a team and the strides that have been made in just one calender year. It is truly amazing to see this. In the prior games, we saw either defense dominate, or the…

I have not quite finished up my thoughts for the spring game and grades for the units, so that will be tomorrow, but there is plenty more going on and other news that has been made, so let us get right to it. Lion Hoops- A lot to cover here. There will be a pre-game…

It was a fantastic weekend for TAMUC fans and athletes, here are some links, hat tip to KETR.org for their write ups on the two big wins for the Basketball teams, and the spring game.

What a sweet day to be a Lion! The Men Knocked off the #2 Texans of Tarleton State University 79-76, and the Ladies defeated the TexAnns, 74-69. The Spring Game was fantastic as well, and this was a huge day for us. I am just super proud and happy to be a Lion right now…

              Will be heading back to Commerce and get there a little before the game starts. It is a beautiful day so I encourage anyone and everyone who can to make the game. I am always interested to see how much the group has progressed.

This weekend will be a busy one and a fun filled one if you are a sports fan in Commerce. Tonight the Class AAA Region II Boys Basketball Semifinals tip off at the University Fieldhouse. The first game tips off at 6 which is Brownsboro High (about 15 mins west of Tyler) takes on Lone…

          Congrats to HC Nicole Anderson and her Lady Lion Squad that never trailed and knocked off a sold Texas Women’s team, 69-62 in Denton. Devin Oliver hit for a game high 15 points to lead all scorers. Now the Ladies concentrate all efforts on their final regular season game on…

Both the Lady Lions and Lions Basketball teams close out the season this Saturday against rival Tarleton State University. The Women face Texas Women’s University tonight in Denton. A win gets them into the tournament, or an Eastern New Mexico loss to West Texas A&M, which I can tell you is almost assured, with how…

This past Saturday I was going through some old Football photos that had been provided to me from the glory years, and I ran across something I have been looking for for years, the National Championship Trophy from 1972. There was only one huge problem, it had been neglected along with tons of other trophies…

I had planned on doing this, Oh, I don’t know about two weeks from now, but with the Spring Game being moved to this Saturday, I decided to hash out what are the 5 biggest things I have on my mind about the game, and the team that I am looking forward to seeing. 1.…

Lions 83, Buffalos 82   The Lions roared to a huge and tough win in Canyon in front of sounded like a hostile crowd in the panhandle. Tyrie Wooten hit three huge free throws to win the game 83-82. The group is now at 17 wins and moves into fifth place headed into a huge…
