Buffalo is an interesting study. They've held onto some of their better players while supplementing with transfer talent. Their top scorer, Daniel Freitag is a Wisconsin transfer and is averaging 20 a game. I'm curious to see if they hold up as the season progresses. Their schedule hasn't been very difficult but it's much better than Miami's (whose isn't?). They squeaked by Bucknell 73-71.

Bucknell got peeled by Cornell today in a battle of the nells, 101-72.

She doesn't strike me as that kind of person.

I'm sensing an ugly day ahead for the women's team. I spoke briefly with Melissa at the men's YSU scrimmage and she seemed very happy.

I'm impressed that they're using correct pronouns.

Bucknell has certainly not followed the Miami scheduling plan as they have had decent opponents. They look to have two skilled bigs which gives the Zips another chance to continue to work in Barre.

The 2-6 Bucknell Bison come to Akron Wednesday night to face our 6-2 Zips. The Bison have wins over Delaware and Mount St. Mary's and losses to Princeton, Hofstra, Pittsburgh, St. John's, Bowling Green and Buffalo. 6'11" German freshman forward/center Amon Dories leads Bison scoring at 14.8 ppg while contributing 4.2 rpg. 6'9" senior forward Ruot Bijiek is second in scoring at 12.5 ppg while leading rebounding at 4.8 rpg. The Bison play Cornell today.

That's not fair. They played Indiana (East) and Trinity Christian is among one of the finest basketball programs in Palos Heights, Illinois.

I still have PTSD from last year's game when they bullied the Zips.

I can't get a real feel for Milwaukee. Their losses other than Wofford are to solid programs and Wofford is okay

I'm gonna sue!

I'm hoping that Barre's ability to gain Groce's trust was adversely impacted by his injury in the pre-season and that the confidence and minutes will grow as the season progresses. He played 11.5 minutes a game at Duquesne last year. Here's hoping there's some of that in store here.

0-4 Heidelberg can't get here fast enough.

Nice article on Terry Weigand and his son's battle with a rare cancer- https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/sports/college/zips/2025/11/25/terry-weigand-family-optimism-cancer-akron-zips-mens-basketball/87271567007/

Plus, they'd get to play in the JAR. That's like playing in the Palestra, Madison Square Garden or Cameron Indoor.
