I see the U18 national team won the gold medal. Fennelly is one of the assistant coaches and hopefully his time with Joslyn pays off. We need a good post game and like you have said Weiben, Ross, Anderson, and Nisleit will all be graduating.

bill fennelly has done a great job with the girl's basketball program.he has increased his recruiting scope to more than just iowa and minnesota and that has helped the quality of his program.

William & Mary goes way back, I believe. As does Hah-vard, too, I think. (No doubt several others also.) Using the terms college and university interchangeably?

Wasn't ISU one of the first institutions of higher learning established under the land grant act (signed by A. Lincoln, I believe)? Fuzzy memory here.

Where does the 1862 number come from? I was pretty sure the grant was made in 1858.
