Former SOU women’s basketball player Allison Gida gets a hug and flowers from softball players during tribute to her father Stan

I’m on a plane for Chicago today. Tomorrow is a big game for the SOU football program.

Today’s photos are from the previously mentioned halftime memorial for Stan Gida a few weeks ago.

SOU’s basketball teams are on a bus headed north on I-5. They have some big road games to open their CCC season tonight (Concordia) and tomorrow (Warner Pacific).

SOU basketball – Eric Thompson (edited)

@SOURaiders

The SOU men’s basketball team continues their road games tonight against Simpson. This will be their fifth (of ten) consecutive road games. Today’s photo comes from their game against Simpson in Ashland earlier this month.

I sometimes have photographers (who have never been in the Riehm Arena) tell me how lucky I am to have such good lighting in a gym. HA! They have no idea how happy I will be to see the new gym lighting when McNeal Pavilion is torn down and the new facility is built. I have shot in many gyms and McNeal has the most difficult lighting. It is a yellow flicker. Most high schools have much better lighting.

Anyway, to give you an idea of how much I have to edit to come up with the photo you see above, check out how the original image started below.

SOU basketball – Ben DeSaulnier

@SOURaiders

…to catch the SOU men’s basketball team in Ashland is tonight. After tonight they will hit the road until December 19. That’s a long time so you should probably be there tonight. Game time is 7:30. Come early as the women will be playing at 5:30, also against Simpson. Both Southern Oregon University teams are 2-0 on the young season.

SOU women’s basketball – Bree Park

@SOURaiders @SOU_WBB @Breezyyy_13

SOU’s basketball season kicks off today with the women’s game at 5:30 and the men’s game at 7:30 in Ashland. The women’s team is the pre-season pick to win the conference, and the men should contend too. Conference games won’t begin until December.

If you can’t make today’s games due to Halloween festivities or other pre-planned conflicts, they will also be playing at the same times on Saturday.
