\nThe men\u2019s basketball team had a six-game winning streak until the Jan. 26, when they lost at Widener 65-58.<\/p>\n

That long win streak lasted for almost a whole month. The streak began on Jan. 2 when they beat Hampden-Sydney. Other teams they beat during the streak were; Albright, Lycoming, Stevenson, Alvernia and Messiah. All those teams are very tough opponents, but the Blazers rose above and won them all.<\/p>\n

The players on the team have fought hard all season and are now nearing the end. With only a couple of games left before conference season starts, tensions are high. Players are excited for conference to start and see how well they can perform against these high-level teams and fans are excited to see how far they make it this year.<\/p>\n

With a season as great as this one has been, we expect our men\u2019s basketball team to do great things in conference this year. Be sure to so some support
\nat their last few games. Going in as the underdog is sometimes a positive and with Hood College we definitely see it as one.<\/p>\n

With a current record of 6-14 the women\u2019s basketball team is hoping to end their season on a higher note. Nearing the end of their 2018-2019 season, they are training hard for conference play. This season they have had
\nsome key wins, their last one being a 57-48 win against Alvernia on Jan. 21. Our Blazers average about 61 points per game. Going into harder play with that point average shows a lot of potential.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, many of the remaining games for our women\u2019s team are\u00a0 away, but everyone can still show their support by watching the live streams, cheering them on as they leave, or even driving to those games.<\/p>\n

Best of luck from all of us here at Hood to our women\u2019s basketball team
\nas they hope to end their season strong.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
