Back on the winning side-We needed this win. Not just for the rankings, not just for the record’s sake, but for a team and fanbase that was not used to losing two games in a row, especially at the beginning at the season. This was a big win against a rival, in a trophy game,…

Texas A&M-Commerce is 1-2 for the first time since 2012, and unranked for the first time since week 5 of the 2014 season. Everyone is asking why. Well, luckily I took statistics in college, at The College of Business at Texas A&M-Commerce, then took it again while getting my MBA at The Graduate School of…

This Saturday one of the biggest regular season games in recent history is happening as most, if not all of you know. This game comes on the heels of one the biggest collapses in recent history that sent the Lions tumbling from # 7 to # 21 in the AFCA Coaches Poll. However, there was…

The weekend was certainly filled with exciting sports action. Let’s get to it. Soccer- The Lion Women picked up a huge last second win that was worthy of an ESPN top ten call. Sophomore Mindy Shoffit knocked in a header with 2 seconds left off of a Leslie Cumpanzano corner kick to give the Lions…

Take this win for what it is worth, a win. Did our offense play lights out? No. Did the ball bounce our way every time? Not even close. Were there mistakes made? Absolutely. What happened last night was that this team, which has a lot of expectations on it, went into a highly ranked team’s…
