You guys have to be kidding me with Chadwick starting on senior night. Of course he should start and play a few minutes. It will have no impact on the result.

A similar sort of possibly risky tribute, UNC ran their first possession in a 4 Corners offense as a tribute to the late Dean Smith. Got them a layup.

David Chadwick deserves the start and probably will. The team needs to remember though what happened to Oakland at Milwaukee and what happened to Cleveland State at Detroit. VU is on a 6 game win streak while Wright State is on a 6 game losing streak. We win this game and Green bay is out of the picture at least for us. So they need to play smart and avoid any injury. Yes play Keith at least 20 minutes. Go VU.

I read a tweet that said Hopkins has his warm-ups on, as well as another guy that has been injured. We can't take this game lightly.

Of course you do not take this game lightly. In tradition of many schools on senior night, start Chadwick and if he is not playing at the level to be effective, then take him out after a few minutes. This should be no big deal and should certainly not effect the outcome.

BREAKING: Chadwick starts, game is not lost

agibson · February 21, 2015, 07:22:16 PM

Crowd's big. As big as GB? Not as lively, no surprise.

Police enforcing parking ban on McIntyre for first time that I've noticed. Scared me out if using it as a through street.

LaPorteAveApostle · February 21, 2015, 07:47:39 PM

Not a great-shooting half, but 0 FTA doesn't help.

I ain't skeered. Second half we come out and handle them.

govalpogo · February 21, 2015, 07:51:25 PM

Valpo has let Wright St. play their game thus far. Need to adjust and flex their collective muscle in the second half.

Does the game looks as rough in person as it does from my couch? Can't blame Drew for yelling, I'm worried someone's going to get hurt out there.

a3uge · February 21, 2015, 07:57:13 PM

2 total ft attempts???

Pretty physical for sure. I don't know if the officiating's been uneven, exactly. Maybe we could have benefited from a couple of no calls. One time they were throwing elbows under the net to clear out a rebound, I thought they could have been called for it.

agibson · February 21, 2015, 08:01:45 PM

We're on track for our 51 and 10. But, I'd just as soon get there sooner rather than later.

agibson · February 21, 2015, 08:11:10 PM

Was that HL tourney ticket sales they just announced? Id just as soon we had this game in hand first, at least!

agibson · February 21, 2015, 08:12:46 PM

There's the 10!

LaPorteAveApostle · February 21, 2015, 08:16:41 PM

and I quote the color guy:

Quotethe last thing Valpo fans want to see is Keith Carter grabbing any portion of his lower extremities

cut to everyone nodding vigorously

agibson · February 21, 2015, 08:27:47 PM

Not -that- was a bad call. Two bad calls.

How was that not off foul?

LaPorteAveApostle · February 21, 2015, 08:29:43 PM

Is it me or does David Skara turn it over a lot?

LaPorteAveApostle · February 21, 2015, 08:31:28 PM

gosh DANGIT i hate the long 2.

Nickerson and Adekoya love it. I'd bench everyone immediately who took a shot just inside the line.

ALL of the risk without the heightened reward. aaaugh.

agibson · February 21, 2015, 08:39:57 PM

As my wife said, "Can you do the splits and -not-travel?"

agibson · February 21, 2015, 08:45:29 PM

51 and 10! Bring in Chadwick!

LaPorteAveApostle · February 21, 2015, 08:57:18 PM

BREAKING: Chadwick re-enters, game still won

agibson · February 21, 2015, 08:58:03 PM

Did Donlon call a TO so we could get Vashil in?

LaPorteAveApostle · February 21, 2015, 09:01:24 PM

Quick let's look at the negative: Anyone else worried about Tevonn? Didn't seem his normal self. Hoping he's ok--there was speculation of an ankle injury.

All right, enough of that. How about running the HL table at home for the first time in forever? #frozenreference

govalpogo · February 21, 2015, 09:03:31 PM

But they didn't put Vashil back in? What a strange...mysterious...ugly ending and really game. It's a W though, all Valpo could do this week is get to 25-4 and that's what happened! Excellent effort by WSU, they did everything in their power to pull the upset but Valpo put up just enough effort to win it.

oklahomamick · February 21, 2015, 09:07:57 PM

Why didn't Vashil come back in?

I love the Jamaican flag hanging up for Vashil. Men's soccer team as 4-6 Jamaicans.
