St. Bonaventure is 19-2...yikes! They lead the A-10...Tonya's Temple is about 4th.
I think the Bonnies beat St. John's and maybe another mid-level Big East team early in the year.
Hope they get an at-large bid if they stumble in their conference tourney.

Lorin Dixon's sister [CC] is getting significant time the last I looked.
Long ago she was described as 'Lorin with a jump shot'....good for the Bonnies.

Sounds like the Bonnies are bringing their CC game. Not quite as good as a CD game, but still darned good.

Just before the Stone Age, when I was a teenager, St Bonaventure regularly fielded a powerful men's basketball team. More recently, the Bonnies upended a good UConn men's team in Connecticut, somewhat to the embarrassment of our male buddies in Storrs.

But I wonder if their pre-conference schedule this season, excepting St John's, was a basket of cream puffs. Anyone know?

The "Litttle Three", St Bonaventure, Niagara, and Canisius were national powers in the 50's…torrid rivalries.
