Senior night

@SOURaiders

Tonight the last regular season home basketball games will be played which means it’s senior night. Women start at 5:30 and men start at 7:30. Tonight’s games will have playoff implications so come on out and support the Raiders.

Another throwback Thursday

After a huge (no pun intended) block by Sean Tow opened the hole, Jeremy Scottow was off to the races on this 11-yard carry to end the third quarter in SOU’s win over St. Xavier University on the road.

Let’s Play Two

Your last chance to catch the 10-4 Raiders at home for a while is today. They play two starting at 1 p.m. at University Field which is located at the corner of Iowa and Wightman Streets in Ashland. The weather looks great (should be close to 60 degrees and sunny), and there won’t be another home game until March 7.

The Raiders will be looking for a bit of revenge against the University of British Columbia today as UBC was the Raiders only loss to a team not ranked in the NAIA Top 10 or in the NCAA. More details on today’s games can be found here.

At this past Saturday’s 2014 SOU Football Awards Banquet, Coach Howard named these five graduating/graduated seniors as permanent captains of the SOU football program.

In other news, the first teaser for this upcoming documentary was shown…

BIG final edition

football book

I continue to get lots of questions about the photo book documenting the SOU 2014 football season. One of the main questions is about the differences between the editions. There are three editions.

The first edition was an 8.5″ x 11″ softcover with 33 pages inside and was limited to a print run of just 10 copies. It sold for $50 each and sold out in 48 hours.

The second edition was an 8.5″ x 11″ hardcover with 43 pages inside and was limited to a print run of 30 copies. It sold for $80 each, and there is only one copy left here.

When it became clear a little over a week ago that all copies were going to be sold I realized that I hadn’t kept a copy for myself. I began tinkering with the second edition to make a single copy and eventually it grew into 51 pages and a much larger size (11″ x 14″). A couple of the photos in this edition are huge. (11″ x 28″!) After having spent a few hours on this third edition, I decided I should probably print more than just one copy so I printed 10. I’m keeping one. I’m donating two copies that were autographed by the entire team, coaching staff, and Mr. Raider this past Saturday at the awards banquet. One of these copies can be yours if you submit one of the two winning bids at the 2015 SOU Raider Club Scholarship Dinner and Auction on April 23, 2015. All proceeds will go to future SOU student athletes to help offset some of their tuition so bid high as this is a great cause.

A bunch of other copies were snatched up at the awards banquet by parents. I do have two (unsigned, sealed) copies of the third edition remaining for $100 each. Email me if interested.

CCC Players of the Week

@SOU_Softball @SOURaiders @Kelsee_R @SOU_WBB

Kelsey Randall was named the Cascade Conference Player of the Week for going 17-for-33 with five extra-base hits and seven steals in her first week on the team.

Ashley Claussen picked up an Honorable Mention in basketball even though the Raiders played only one game. Going 5-for-6 from 3-point range in addition to leading the team with six assists can make that happen.

I understand the New England Patriots are looking for players with Tim Weber’s set of skills; they’ve got their eye on what he can do to the ball.

Get there early (before 7 p.m.) if you want a seat. Get there before 6 p.m. if you want a free t-shirt. If you don’t already have a ticket, get there before 4 as the last few tickets will be sold then.

The 22-3 women start at 5:30.

Tomorrow night’s game is a pretty big deal. Reserved seats have sold out, but I hear there may be a few left in the bleachers. Better head over to the SOU Athletics Department to pick tickets up today, if you haven’t already, or you probably won’t get in tomorrow.
