It's the "exam break" part of the schedule, meaning there aren't any games for the next two weeks or so.The District 8 and District 4 leagues will resume on February 4th, while D10 play gets back to business the next day on February 5th.
There's still some CWOSSA storylines in the NCAA that we'll be following during the break, though.
As I mentioned on Twitter the other day, St. David CSS ('09) grad Bryson Johnson is just three three-pointers shy of the Bucknell University all-time record. He didn't have any in Bucknell's win over Lafayette on Saturday, but given his prolific marksmanship over his career, it should just be a matter of time.
Bucknell's next game is on Wednesday against Stefan Cvrkalj (Bluevale '11) and Lehigh University, with first place in the Patriot League on the line.
Lehigh, like Bucknell, is 3-0 in Patriot League play after their 60-45 win over Murphy Burnatowski (ex-SJAM) and Colgate. The Mountain Hawks certainly did a good job of containing Burnatowski, who is averaging 17.3 PPG on the season; he was held to a season-low 2 points Saturday before fouling out, which marked only the second time all year he didn't hit double figures.
Cvrkalj hit for 2 points and 1 rebound for Lehigh in that one.
On the women's side of things, Natalie Achonwa (ex-Guelph Centennial) and her #2 Notre Dame Fighting Irish continue to roll; they defeated St. John's 74-50 on Saturday with Achonwa contributing a solid 16 point / 12 rebound double-double. That's nothing out of the norm for her, though, as the junior forward is practically averaging a double-double on the season (14.2 PPG & 9.3 RPG).
Forest Heights ('10) grad Jenn Lennox had 6 blocked shots (tying the Canisius school record) in a 75-68 Canisius win over Rider. Both her Golden Griffins and Kelly Van Leeuwen (St. John's '11) Niagara Purple Eagles are currently sitting in the top half of the MAAC standings.
