Happy Thanksgiving!

On this Thanksgiving Day, our team is grateful for all those who support us in a multitude of ways: parents, friends, family, the F&M athletic department, and all others behind the scenes. We wish you and your family a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Game Time

We are all set to open up the 2010-2011 season tomorrow night at Susquehanna. It's hard to believe that we have completed about four weeks of practice. Our team has been working hard everyday to improve and I think we are really starting to come together. Later this week we are hosting the Terry Greene Tip-Off Tournament. We will take on Elizabethtown College at 4pm on Friday with Catholic and Eastern Mennonite opening the tournament at 2pm. On Saturday the consolation game will be at 2pm and the championship game will be played at 6pm. We hope you will join us in Mayser Friday and Saturday for a great weekend of basketball!

Volleyball = Centennial Champions!

Congratulations to the Diplomat Volleyball team who beat Swarthmore in the Centennial Conference Championship yesterday. They will now head down to Christopher Newport University in Newport News, VA this weekend for the regional round of the NCAA tournament. You can follow their progress through the NCAA tournament on GoDiplomats.com. Join me in wishing them all the best in their preparations this week. Go Dips!

Homecoming

Homecoming 2010 was a great success. I really enjoyed seeing familiar faces and meeting some new folks, especially a number of women's basketball alums. We had beautiful fall weather for the Tailgate Extravaganza on Saturday afternoon. Many teams had tents, along with a number of academic departments and other student organizations on campus. It's a great way for alums to catch up with their former teammates, professors and coaches. Thank you to all of you who made the trip back to campus. Below are a couple pictures of our team on Saturday afternoon.
