Southwest Missouri State 75 (at) Colgate 69
Merry Christmas guys. A valiant effort, but we fall short again. Greenwood scores 11 to lead the starters and in what appears to be a bug, Delapaz plays 19 minutes despite being listed as out and scores a career high 14 points to lead the team. Time to go over to HeavyReign’s boards and let him know.

Colgate 67 (at) Cornell 52
We move to 6-5 on the season with a nice win on the road. Warren Pond, relegated to the nech after the emergence of Greenwood earned game MVP honors with 10 points on 4 for 4 shooting. The injured (but not 89%) Rusty Delapaz led the team with 14 points. Where was Rusty when he was healthy?

December Recap:
We finish out 2003 with a 605 record. Not bad really.
C David Rust from Rochester has declined our scholly and committed to Syracuse. Guess we were reaching there, huh?
PG Jack Hatch from Collinsville, CT has committed to play for us! Jack is a 2 star recruit who has a very sweet jump shot and will either back up Perez or play SG.
