Wheaton Hoops Sniffing .500

Despite a staggeringly bad 0-6 start to the season, Wheaton has used the time when nobody is attending their games (Wheaton has that 6 week long winter break) to put together an astounding run of form, winning 6 of their past 7 contests.  Walms has these boys sniffing the .500 mark. 

A win at Babson, who has nothing more than an average squad, will have the Walmsley Warriors at the .500 plateau.  Let's be honest, it was looking like a lost season through six games.  Now, all of a sudden, the Lyons could be sitting at even money and sporting a 3-1 record in NEWMAC play.  I have to wonder whether a team that went 0-6 to start the season ever won the conference title.  How many teams ever went 0-6 and got an NCAA berth? 

Could this be the beginning of something special in Norton?  Will the Walms make one too many substitutions?  Does Dan Noonan have eligibility left and turnovers left to commit?  You will have to stay tuned...
