The Sacred Heart coach was very impressed with our team and well he should have been but I think he got a little carried away because later in the article he compared us to the professional team that resides below the Ohio River.


COLUMBUS, Ohio — Take the comparison with a grain of salt, because it came from a coach lavishing praise on a team that just beat his by 58 points.

"As much as Ohio State can be a sleeper, I think Ohio State can surprise some people because of their length," Sacred Heart coach Anthony Latina said Sunday after the Buckeyes beat his Pioneers 106-48 in Value City Arena.

"They can be unique, in the Syracuse mold. They have that Syracuse type of length."
