HMMM-- I would say that Lafayette mens basketball isnt very good right now, that about all you can say about that. As for the Woman's team who really cares. If we are smacking about womens sports we have sunk to a whole new level
Lafayette holds a huge advantage in the all-time Men's series. It was mentioned during the game but I cant find the number. Anyway Lafayette basketball has been better then Lehigh basketball for the better part of the last few decades.
Edit-- I found the numbers it is Lafayette 136 Lehigh 73 (includes last weeks win)

BTW, the all-time Lehigh record in basketball was 888-1293 (.407) at the start of the year.
For the last 16 seasons, it is 154-301 (.338).
That includes the Joe Knight forfeit season, which LU describes in the following disingenuous way:
Lehigh volunteered to forfeit 13 victories from the
2004-05 season after a technical interpretation regarding
the application of transfer credits to NCAA progress toward
degree requirements resulted in an institutional declaration
of ineligibility for an otherwise eligible student-athlete.

Using "volunteered" in this context is like a convicted criminal volunteering to go to jail, since PL rules mandated a forfeiture of all games.
And I like the phrase: "resulted in an institutional declaration
of ineligibility for an otherwise eligible student-athlete." . . . . . . . So he was eligible except for the fact that he was ineligible! . . . . . . . And it was not an "institutional declaration", it was because under NCAA rules he was clearly not eligible to play. Forfeits were mandatory regardless of what was "declared" by the school.

Yo 808 Dude! And how many years head start did you exactly have on scholarships? Oh and BTW, I believe we split last year starting 4 seniors, none of whom had scholarships. And further BTW, last time I looked we were both tied in the PL standings @ 2-3 with our 2 wins coming against teams, dare I say, LU lost to. What's up with that?

More revisionist history and manipulation of the english language.

Fair question. The answer is no. We've been able to recruit plenty of young people-male and female-who can't quite play the game at this level. _________________ Long Time Fan
