Was just checking scores tonight and wanted to title the post, Bloody Monday...teams I have never heard of and just some awfully lopsided games and always thought I knew most of the teams and prided myself on knowing the Cobden Apple Knockers, Freeport Pretzels and Hebron Green Giants in IHSA basketball but some of these teams tonight..never heard of....although I now feel better about my grand kids chances of getting into a college......Does anyone have familiarity with any of the teams in bold? Drexel 117...Penn Allegheny 49 Texas A & M Commerce 130 Arlington Baptist 53 Prairie View 92 North American 61 Youngstown St. 117 Westminster 45 LeMoyne 92 Houghton 72 Dartmouth 77 Thomas(and not St. THomas just Thomas.)48 Ohio 108 Defiance 28 Marshall 103 Bluefield 70 Ark Pine Bluff 125 Ecclesia 75 SIUE 99 Central Christian 56 Texas State 110 LeTourneau 68 NIU 92 Calumet 48 Pacific 68 Stanislaus St. 46 |

North Dakota State 108 Oak Hills College 14 This was the most lopsided game I have seen. The highlights looked like a YMCA team could have fared better against NDSU |

So how did this happen on this particular night? have these schools always existed? and all of a sudden you decided we want to get beat by 94 points? Reminds me of another story. A friend of mine was coaching an 8th grade team and were playing a big private school known for scoring 100 pts. As the game progressed it didnt look good. They were getting beat soundly and the other team was getting close to 100. but what really ticked off my buddy was the other team kept pressing and kept the starters in trying to get to 100. They got to 98 with two minutes left..My buddy called time out...had all his players leave the gym...officially forfeited and the score ended 2-0......took place in the Sheboygan area. |

I am wondering if it is that time of year where schools want a tune up/confidence booster before conference season kicks off. Plus many schools have finals this time of year so want home games and cannot get other D1 schools to travel? It was the same thought I had when I saw Goshen on our schedule. |

Texas A&M Commerce handed St Joe’s one of its two losses, btw. Also, I can’t let this thread pass without mentioning there are actually TWO Pretzel mascots in Illinois. Shout out to New Berlin. And the Centralia Orphans, Teutopolis Wooden Shoes, and Hoopeston Cornjerkers And RIP to the Waverly Scotties, Sacred Heart Academy Blazers, and Pekin…well, we won’t go there. |

Wasn't Pekin known as "The Chinks?" |
