Last night’s dinner consisted of a another delicious Sammich. Not the one pictured above, that one is from the archives. I didn’t have my camera with me last night. The one above was a special (Miguelito) and hence not on the regular menu board (pictured below).

Ashland, Oregon
Senior Day for the Southern Oregon University Raiders vs. Eastern Oregon
Game time is 1 p.m. Be there!
SOU wrestling
Brock Gutches and Bryce McMahon
The Southern Oregon University wrestling team begins their 2013-2014 season tomorrow night (11/9/13) beginning at 7 p.m. in a home dual against #13 Menlo. The Raiders will be led by #1 ranked Brock Gutches this season.
Ashland High School football
Matt Hedges
Opening kickoff is set for 7 p.m. tonight (11/8/13) against Pendleton. The Grizzlies have a perfect 9-0 record but were shortchanged in the seeding. Despite finishing #3 in the polls, AHS will go into the 2013 OSAA 5A State Football Championships as the #5 seed. (Ashland beat Springfield in the game featured in today’s photos, and Springfield went in with two losses as the #3 seed.)
The seeding makes a big difference. Assuming the top seeds win, Ashland will have to defeat Pendleton, the #4 seed, and the #1 seed in order to advance to the championship game. The #2 and #3 seeds don’t face anyone higher than the #6 seed before facing each other in the semifinals. Obtaining the #5 seed instead of the #4 or #3 seed also means this is likely the last game at home for the Grizzlies.

Sydney Paulsen scored the only goal SOU would need in their shutout victory (2-0) over Eastern Oregon this afternoon. Next up is Concordia on the road. SOU lost to Concordia at home (2-1) last month.
SOU Men’s Basketball player Tim Weber
The Southern Oregon University Men’s Basketball Team this year is good. Really good. They may even win the national championship. They head on the road for their next five games before returning to Ashland after Thanksgiving. Today’s photo is from their victory this past Monday night (11/4/13 vs. Simpson).
SOU Women’s Soccer
The Cascade Collegiate Conference Women’s Soccer Championship begins at 2 p.m. on Wednesday (11/6/13) in Ashland. The SOU Raiders will go up against the Eastern Oregon Mountaineers in the first round playoff game.
SOU Women’s Basketball
Carly Meister
Sophomore Carly Meister was named the Cascade Conference Women’s Basketball Player of the Week for her performances on Friday and Saturday (both victories for the Raiders). The SOU women won’t play again in Ashland until November 29 (against Oregon Tech), but if you want to watch some live basketball in Ashland, come down and watch the men play tonight at 7:30.
Autumn on the SOU campus
Soon things won’t look so great. By the end of November only the evergreen trees will be something other than brown and dreary. These last few moments of the fall season are to be cherished.
The buildings in the background of today’s photo of the Southern Oregon University campus are the Computer Sciences buildings (Computing Services and the Main Computer Lab).
