Another year, another season of 20 or so plus victories and an NCAA D2 Tournament Appearance, our 3rd in 4 years. A lot to be proud of and also to look forward to. Here are 5 thoughts on the season that was 2017-2018. I was on Campus last Spring when it was announced that Sam…
A lot of accolades in Lion Nation, so let’s get to it. A Huge Congrats are in Order to the Men’s 4×400 Meter Relay Team for their National Title. The team of Jude Christine, Dedrian Windham, D’lance Sharp, and Rashard Clark notched the top time, and one of the fastest times in the HISTORY of the…
Lions end their season at 23-9 after a game that was close until the final 10 minutes, where fouls and poor shooting got the better of the Lions. West Texas A&M moves on to play UT-Permian Basin for the South Central Region Title on Tuesday night. Season post mortem will be coming up shortly. Congrats…
Lions got off to a good start, but some cold shooting and defensive lapses have left them down by 5 at the half. Have faith, Lion fans. If they can tighten up the defense, and find the shooting touch, this is game that can be won.
A few thoughts… First, congrats to Fort Lewis. They are a sound fundamental team and we can expect to see them down the road. Not an easy win by any stretch. The Lions needed to be the aggressor and they were. Not much else you can say about it other than that is what needed…
A few quick thoughts. The Lions are being the aggressor and have had multiple chances to pull away. At one point, the Lions were up by 12 with about 5 minutes to go. They are shooting the ball well and just attacking on both ends. They are playing some of the toughest pressure defense I…
So, here we are. For the third time in four seasons, and for Jaret Von Rosenberg’s first season, the Lions are back in the NCAA DII Dance. The South Central Regional is being played in Canyon on the campus of West Texas A&M as top ranked regional seeds get to host. The Lions got probably…
Well, for the third time in the past four years, the Lions have been invited to go to the dance. They will face For Lewis State in Canyon, as West Texas A&M is the top seed in the region, so they will host the South Central Region, here is the bracket. West Texas A&M VS…
Its been a busy couple of days in Lion Hoops so let’s get to it. Thursday, March 1st, LSC Women’s First Round Texas A&M-Commerce Lions-93 Cameron Aggies-89 In a huge win that avenged an earlier season loss. The win gives the Lions an 18-11 record overall, their best record since Jason Burton took over. Brianna…
Lions come up with a HUGE win, avenging an earlier season loss by hanging on to knock off # 7 West Texas A&M. This win is ENORMOUS for the Lions and heading into the regular season finale against Texas-Permian Basin On Saturday, and I will be there along with my Dad. Lions move to 19-7…
Just like their Women counterparts, the Men’s Basketball squad has a huge stretch ahead of them. They have two huge games coming up. Both are against ranked teams and both can do a fantastic thing if they are both won. Let’s take a closer look. Overall record: 18-7 Conference Record: 10-6 Home Record: 8-1 Road…
I guess this is a team that just has a flare for the dramatic. For the past 6 games, 4 times have gone into Overtime. Good news is that the Lions are 4-1. The Bad News, this means that the Lions have had a chance to finish 5 of the past 6 games, and 4 times…
Lions drop a win on the road to move a full 2 1/2 games out of first place with a loss to a Hot Shooting Angelo State team. To the Rams credit, they shot the lights out. It is hard to go on the road and win, but a hot shooting team is rougher.…
This was not a good weekend for either the Men’s or Women’s Hoopsters. The Women dropped a 64-60 loss at Eastern New Mexico. After leading most of the way, the Zias of ENMU outscored the Lions by 5 points in the final 10 minutes to take the win. The women are still in first place,…
A few quick thoughts: They needed this one. The past couple of weeks have been rough for the Lions. Losses to UTPB and West Texas on the road, a tough overtime win over Midwestern State, and a loss to Cameron. Over the past 5 games, the Lions have a 2-3 record. They needed this win…
A three pointer with .06 left in the game pushed the A&M-Commerce Lions in overtime against a salty Midwestern State team, and then back into the LSC win column with a 91-88 win Thursday night in Commerce. With that win, the Lions push their record to 16-3 overall and 8-2 in LSC play. This was…
This weekend was a fantastic weekend for the Women’s Basketball team as they picked up two HUGE wins on the road. Knocking off Texas-Permian Basin in Odessa and then heading up the road to knock off a ranked West Texas team showed that this team is primed to be an LSC contender for the regular…
Lions lose in the worst way possible, after the Falcons missed a game winning shot, a rebound squeaked it’s way through a Lion’s hand and the Falcons picked up the ball and put the ball in. The shot appeared to be after the buzzer, but after looking at the shot for a good 3-4 minutes,…
It’s been a slugfest on the Permian Basin, with the two teams exchanging blows. This one will come down to the wire. Second half coming up.
The Lions pick up another big win to stay undefeated and in first place in the Lone Star Conference and 14-1 overall. It was truly a tale of halves. The Lions dominated TSU for the first half, and then the Texans came back and actually outscored the Lions by 2 in the second half, but…
