Blogs > The Full-Court Press

Welcome back to the Trentonian's Full-Court Press blog. Yes, we're still alive, and with the 2015-16 season rapidly approaching, it's time to fire up the old blog for another season. Check back here throughout the year for updates on all things Rider and Princeton, including coverage of both the MAAC and Ivy League. Feel free to drop me a line on twitter @kj_franko (https://twitter.com/kj_franko) or email kfranko@trentonian.com.

News and notes


A few quick hits:

The happiest coach in the country today has to be Oregon State's Craig Robinson (above, at practice today with his team), whose sister, Michelle, will be America's next First Lady.

A tip of the hat to fellow MAAC beat writer and politics junky Keith Connors, who did a great job, along with Chris Haliskoe and the rest of the crew, covering the election for The Mirror. They even gave me a shot at being an amateur political analyst during a spot on their live webcast.

Ex-Suns star Kevin Johnson has a new job.

Marist's Rachele Fitz is a candidate for the women's Wooden Award, more evidence that the Red Foxes are head and shoulders above any other MAAC men's or women's team.

A commenter points out that I sold Jason Thompson short in my last post. JT, as the reader points out, entered tonight's game against Memphis with four double-figure scoring outputs in four games, not three as I wrote. Somewhere in the confusion of keeping an eye scores while designing pages, I missed the bucket that got him to 10 points in the Kings' 103-77 loss to Miami on Halloween night.

I've got a doubleheader on tap for tomorrow, with Princeton media day at 3:30 and Rider practice at 5.
