We have hunted far and wide for a volunteer to be our webmaster, and finally we believe we have located this extremely rare creature. [Shhhh! Be vewy quiet! We don’t want to scare her away...] We have ironed out many issues, however. As long as the registration process with the University Treasury department goes well, and migration of the website to University space goes smoothly, we hope to have a working website before the end of 2010. “IF YOU PLAY IT WRONG SLOWLY, IT’LL BE TWICE AS BAD WHEN YOU PLAY IT RIGHT.” ~William D.

  • Butler and Ohio State Were Dueling It out in Overtime in Columbus
    The Michigan Full Court Press Volume VII Issue IV The Official Newsletter of the Maize Rage 26 November 2005 On the crowd... "They were our sixth man. They really helped us out. If it wasn't for them, I don't know. They really gave Illinois a tough time, and they really pumped us up, so it was great for them to be there." -Courtney Sims, 2/8/05 Maize Ragers, welcome back to Crisler for some post-Thanksgiving Michigan basketball! Today, the Maize and Blue return home from their first road trip of the young season. And it was a successful one, as Lester Abram and Daniel Horton led the Wolverines to a 51-46 victory over our nemesis Boston University. The importance of this win cannot be overlooked – it may have come against a mid-major team that we were supposed to beat, but it is still a big non-conference road win that should boost the team’s confidence. Boston U. could very well end up in the NCAA Tournament when all is said and done. Meanwhile, as Michigan was putting the finishing touches on the Terriers, Butler and Ohio State were dueling it out in overtime in Columbus. Butler ended up falling 79-69 to the Buckeyes, but they showed that they can play with anyone in the Big Ten, even on the road. Let’s be sure to show the team all the support we can today, even though most students are gone on break. Have fun today, enjoy the rest of break, and Go Blue!
