  • Eclipse venture into Moles Stadium for championship rematch

    Last season it was quite a different story as both teams were well above .500 at the halfway point in the season. Currently both teams are still struggling to find their stride with the Moles at 9-8 and the Eclipse sitting at 7-11.

    Kent Noll has hit a mid-season slump after a very fast start, so the Moles will be relying more on Hiram Atkins to take the load, while they have also been tinkering with the center position, as Virgil Fowle has been more consistent than his counterpart Edward Furbee.

    For the Eclipse, Judson Ibarra has been struggling all season and found his way to the bench last game in favor of Carlton Poling who is having a solid season. Miquel Windish finally made his starting debut putting up a double-double with 16 points and 15 boards. Stan Villano backed him up after a string of bad performances.

    If the Moles are able to pull this one out, it will be because of the perimeter game. If the Eclipse take it, it will be because they kept their turnovers low.

  • Moles escape Meteor comeback to win by 2

    It seemed the Moles were smooth sailing on the road against the Meteors, but the last half saw their 17 point lead evaporate as the Meteors closed to within 2 several times and seemed about ready to strike at any moment.

  • New Look Moles

    The Moles open up the 3rd season in League II with a fresh new look in time for the regular season debut against the Wolves. 3rd season head coach, Tha Kingpin has the team looking good on the hunt for their 3rd straight playof appearance.

    The team made a few key moves this offseason, but the biggest would be bringing in Kent Noll, the first player ever taken in the League II draft, who is coming off of a somewhat dissappointing season for the Jacks, but will figure to be the focal point for the Moles. The Moles sent Joe Gilliland and Moses Boisvert to the Jacks in return.

    In steps Virgil Fowle, the 206th pick in the initial draft of League I. He played 29 games for the team leading them on a 7-3 run to close the season and head into the playoffs at 19-15.
