Canadian Content

More NCAA basketball letters are signed early, Carl English is big in the EuroLeague, another look at St. Francis Xavier's Coach Konchalski's milestone and other assorted basketball news from around the country in this edition of Canadian Content. 

Star-divide

 

First off, let's start by saying congratulations to St. Francis Xavier Coach Steve Konchalski for setting the all time CIS wins record with 735, and counting, passing the great Jerry Hemmings of Brandon University.  He broke the record last week but it's never a bad thing to repeat a monumental feat.  Canada Basketball | CANADA'S COACH K SETS WINS RECORD

And lastly, a few weeks ago I penned a piece on the little situation brewing in Hamilton regarding some former NEDA girls playing ball at a local high school.  It looks like the forum post on the subject at the basketball website it began on had reached 17 pages before the site administrator seemed to have ended all additions to the thread.  Well, the upshoot is that the team with the NEDA girls is headed to the city finals.  Just read the last post by a rival basketball coach and remember that adults can still act like children.  TheSpec.com - Sports - 'X' stars as St. Mary's march on
