I was able to watch the game tonight against the University of British Columbia on their website. The eags won 77-74 and won 87-70 last night. Several of the new players look very impressive. I understand they are not playing Division I teams, they still seem to be getting off to a good start. Justin Crosgile (26 pts. tonight), Ivan Dorsey, and Thomas Reuter seemed to play especially well. I wasn't able to find the box score for last nights victory but Thompson Rivers University sites article, stated Collin Chiverton led the way with 22 pts. Even though it's football season, I'm pumped for the basketball teams season too. With four games remaining on their Canada trip, the new guys will have even more time to gel together before the fall season begins. I also noticed there is a new player in the lineup (Garrett Moon 6-5 wing JC from San Francisco City College.) He didn't play much, but seems athletic and hustles hard. The two australian players didn't appear to make the trip as well as Jeffrey Forbes. If anyone has any information regarding why those three players didn't make the trip I would appreciate it. GO EAGS!

its my understanding that the two australians are not on campus yet and forbes is no longer with the program, but not sure on the last one, just what i have heard through the grapevine.
Pity there is no box score for the close one against UFV.

I had no idea they played before the season like this. How many games like this does the NCAA allow?
Good to hear, thanks for the update.AussieFan said:Wow, they have won all 6 games
NCAA allow one tour every 4 years preseason like this. Th maximum is six games. Great opportunity for the coach to see how the blend of newcomers and existing players will meld. Hayford certainly knows what he is doing :nod:
Go eags :rofl:
