The Post-Southern Columbia Single A Bracket.

It was hard to imagine Week 12 without Southern Columbia. However, it is time to move on a big congratulations to Line Mountain and Bloomsburg. In my preview of the District IV championship, I indicated that the key matchup would be the Line Mountain fullback and controlling him. Sheibelhut got hurt and didn't play in the 2nd and 3rd quarters and the Eagle attack didn't have the same punch. It would have been interesting to see what would have happened if he played all four quarters.


BUCKNELL
Bucknell had an interesting weekend in football and basketball over the weekend. The Bison defeated Fordham 38-24 to give the 18th ranked Rams their only Patriot League loss of the season. Southern Columbia's Ryan Slater made a key interception in the third quarter. His nine yard return set up a touchdown to extend the lead to 31-17.
On the basketball side, the Bison gave Villanova all they could handle despite being outrebounded 43-26 and out manned. Bucknell made a team record 15 three-pointers. Senior co-captain John Griffin led the way with a career-high 22 points and made six treys. Griffin has been huge especially with the injury bug biting the Bison this season with Darren Mastropaolo, Rob Thomas and Jason Vegotsky all missing significant time.
SUSQUEHANNA
With the tournament title in Pepsi/Weis Tip-Off Tournament could the Crusaders make some noise in the Landmark Conference in head coach Frank Marcinek's 19th season?
