[Wood Earns Spot on NABC All-District First Team]

More accolades:

Wood Earns Spot on NABC All-District First Team

Redshirt junior guard Brandon Wood (Kokomo, Ind./Kokomo [Highland C.C./Southern Illinois]) continues to rake in honors for his 2010-2011 campaign, as he was named Wednesday to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) All-District 12 First Team.

Wood, who was also a First Team All-League and an All-Tournament Team honoree within the Horizon League, led the Crusaders in scoring this year at 17.0 ppg, a mark which ranks third in the league.  He has scored 545 points on the season, giving him 1,110 career points through his first two years, a Valpo program record through two seasons.  This season, he scored 20 or more points on 12 occasions, including six of Valpo's final eight games, and hit 30+ points three times.

But the junior has done more than just score for the Crusaders this season.  Wood averages 4.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.7 steals per game as well, leading Valpo in the latter two categories.  The junior ranks second in the league in thefts and eighth in assists, and is one of just two players in the Horizon League to sit among the top-eight in scoring, assists and steals.  In addition, Wood's 54 steals this year already has him in sixth place on the Crusader single-season charts.

I will miss the old banner, perhaps it could be archived somewhere on the site?  (The new one's nice too.)

I have saved off the old banner here:  http://valpofanzone.com/forum/valpoffbanner.jpg

Not sure what we will do with it, perhaps we can use it occasionally like a "throwback" uniform 

From valpo04 on the old board:

This board will continue to operate normally untl Selection Sunday (this Sunday). At that time, we will close it down to NEW TOPICS. All existing threads will remain open for discussion until May 1, but any and all new discussions will take place on the new board. This will allow all conference and pre-NCAA tournament talk to continue here, while helping everyone transition to our new home.

Hopefully this will help folks who have been checking each board for new topics.

Well, OK, so much for "voting with [their] feet"

Yeah, Hoops and I were discussing the best way to transition everyone over, without having people check both boards for new posts.  Since we have the ability to close the old one to new topics, we figured this was the best way to do it.

Here is the link... 2 more to go!!

I'm trying to become the first Horizon League AD with more than 100 followers on Twitter.  Free Valpo shirts to the first 5 people from this forum who sign-up as followers of ValpoAD.

Already following!

The HL Tourney Champion is decided tonight... I think it will be a good one, with Butler pulling it out at the end.

Just an FYI, if you want to chat, the chat room can be found on the menu at the top of the Fan Zone site, as well as the menu at the top here.
