SOU Women’s Basketball
Kristen Schoenherr

Southern Oregon University guard Kristen Schoenherr was the CCC Player of the Week for the second time this season for her performance this past Friday and Saturday nights. This weekend she will lead the Raiders as they hit the road for games at Corban and Northwest Christian. A couple of victories could move the Raiders into second place in the 10-team conference, but Corban is 5-1 at home so it won’t be easy.

SOU snow

No, the winter without precipitation hasn’t changed its course. Instead, my random, desktop image of the day is from the archives. This photo comes from November of 2010. We normally get about 3″ of wet stuff in November. There was none this past November. We normally get an average of about 3″ of snow and another 3″ of rain in January. Not so this year.

Mount McLoughlin with lava rocks in foreground

Yesterday was the first warm day we have had in months, and it almost felt like the day when I took this photo (my random, desktop photo of the day) back in the summer of 2011. I went on a bike ride and saw just a touch of snow on Mt. Ashland, extremely rare for this time of year. I’m guessing there isn’t much on Mount McLoughlin either given the nearly snowless winter we are experiencing.
