You can insert your own David vs Goliath cliche here. Yesterday the NAIA’s 8-17 Point University Skyhawks (logo at left) handed the number one team in the country, the Shorter Hawks, their first loss of the season. The final score in this Instant Classic was 73-72, with a pair of clutch free-throws from Jeremy Mahaffey icing the win for the Skyhawks. Shorter falls to 21-1 as the Skyhawks, who are also one of the NAIA’s newest football institutions, continue to make their presence known in their first full year of NAIA play.
In other action from yesterday the CC Fighting Saints took down the visiting Rocky Mountain College Battlin’ Bears 78-70, the Tabor College Blue Jays defeated the Ottawa (KS) Braves in overtime by a score of 92-80 and the Cal Maritime Keelhaulers (love that name) won 72-66 over the UC-Merced Golden Bobcats.

Thanks for the pingback!
Keep ’em coming! No idea where you find these teams but it’s such a nice change of pace compared to the hired thugs of D1 basketball!
I agree! Stay tuned – the conference tournaments in some of these divisions start in a few weeks!
