S9 April 6, 2013 When George Mason announced its move to the Atlantic 10, I tweeted that I hoped the A-10 community was as good as the CAA community. The Colonial fanbase's Twitter contingent has had a number of great moments over the years, but one sticks out in particular: #3bids4CAA.The term's origins are clou...
S9 March 17, 2013 The CAA Saturday quarterfinal night session revived some of the fan-based intensity of the opener after a somewhat uninspired supporting crowd in the intermediate contest. With the tournament in its final year in Richmond and two teams from Virginia in action, that was no surprise. And despite Wi...

S9 March 16, 2013 The middle game of the Saturday CAA quarterfinals began as the quietest. George Mason fans had traveled well for the opening game of the tournament, and a solid number remained for this one. James Madison was also well represented, as a number of Dukes fans trickled into the Richmond Coliseum pri...
S9 March 16, 2013 This was supposed to be Drexel's year. A year removed from a heartbreaking snub by the NCAA selection committee, the Dragons were poised and expected to dominate the new-look Colonial. Guard Frantz Massenat was the conference's preseason player of the year, the team's core players were all return...
S9 February 3, 2013 James Madison and Old Dominion are not, in the strictest sense, rivals. Virginia's most prominent and most vitriolic sub-Red Line rivalry is ODU-VCU, and JMU has a less-celebrated rivalry with George Mason. But intrastate programs are natural foes nonetheless, and matchups between Virginia teams ...
S9 January 15, 2013 What new can be said about an arena so mystical, it is called a cathedral; so important it inspired a book and documentary; and so influential it is emulated hundreds of miles away?This was the challenge facing me in recapping my first game at the Palestra, and the answer is: nothing, or at least n...
