Cal Poly Sports Blog: December 2007
http://calpolysportsblog.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 29, 2007. Liddell finishes '07 on winning note. Maybe Cal Poly's basketball fans should have stayed home and watched the fight tonight. While the Mustangs men's basketball team lost at home to 2-10 Southern Utah, former Cal Poly wrestler and mixed martial arts star Chuck Liddell ended his year in style. The win snapped a two-fight losing streak by the former Mustang, who still lives and trains in San Luis Obispo. Silva recovered and came out strong in the second before a cut above his ...

Cal Poly Sports Blog: 4 wins + 4 days = Big Dance
http://calpolysportsblog.blogspot.com/2008/03/4-wins-4-days-big-dance.html
Tuesday, March 11, 2008. 4 wins 4 days = Big Dance. The sixth-seeded Cal Poly men’s basketball team (12-17, 7-9) will try to pull off the unthinkable this week, winning four games in four days to advance to its first NCAA Tournament. The Mustangs open the tournament Wednesday night against seventh-seeded UC Riverside (8-20, 4-12) in the first round at the Anaheim Convention Center. But hey, a sixth seed has won this thing before. Don’t believe it? Posted by Brian Milne. On the flip side, Cal Poly fans pr...

Cal Poly Sports Blog: It 'wasn’t a pretty game to watch'
http://calpolysportsblog.blogspot.com/2008/03/it-wasnt-pretty-game-to-watch.html
Thursday, March 13, 2008. It 'wasn’t a pretty game to watch'. Finally, it’s over. Instead of this prolonging a season filled with putrid shooting performances – from the arc, from the paint and from the line – the Cal Poly men’s basketball team made an early exit from the Big West Tournament on Wednesday. It was the only upset of the day. UC Riverside head coach Jim Woolridge probably put it best, saying it “wasn’t a pretty game to watch.”. No it wasn’t. What SoCal basketball fans missed was Cal PolyR...

Cal Poly Sports Blog: March 2008

Saturday, March 15, 2008. Cal Poly run comes to an end. Well, the Cal Poly women’s basketball team’s run has come to an end at the Big West Tournament, falling to eventual champion UC Santa Barbara in the semifinals. That just about wraps up the winter season for Cal Poly athletics, minus what has probably been the best story of the season — wrestler Chad Mendes. The conclusion of the winter season all but wraps up my tenure on the college beat, at least for the immediate future. And the big-wave surfing.

Cal Poly Sports Blog: They call her Sparkle for a reason
http://calpolysportsblog.blogspot.com/2008/03/they-call-her-sparkle-for-reason.html
Friday, March 14, 2008. They call her Sparkle for a reason. I’ve been covering Cal Poly basketball since the turn of the century (that makes me sound much older than I am), and I’m not sure I’ve seen a more impressive individual performance down the stretch than we saw from senior guard Sparkle Anderson today. Sparkle. I mean, the name says it all. Anderson scored six of her season-high 18 points in the final 71 seconds as the Mustangs overcame a 19-point deficit to upset Pacific. All this from a 5-foot-...

Cal Poly Sports Blog: February 2008
http://calpolysportsblog.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 27, 2008. RPI could spell RIP for Big West. Not that this is surprising news, but a look at the NCAA's latest RPI men's basketball figures shows the Big West Conference will be a one-bid league to the 65-team NCAA Tournament again this season. This also means the team that wins the regular season is assured of nothing, and the champion of the Big West Tournament could receive a very low seed. As of Feb. 25, ESPN's Joe Lunardi. 319 Long Beach St. Posted by Brian Milne. Mike Jones and a...

Cal Poly Sports Blog: October 2007
http://calpolysportsblog.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 29, 2007. Poly still on outside looking in. Saturday’s 48-28 victory at Idaho State wasn’t enough to sway the voters. The Cal Poly football team was left out of both major Football Championship Subdivision Top 25 polls on Monday. Prior to the South Dakota State loss, the Mustangs hadn’t been out of both polls since early in the 2004 season. Here is The Sports Network poll. And the FCS poll. The Gridiron Power Index.

A Cambria Slice of Life: May 2008
http://cambriasliceoflife.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
A Cambria Slice of Life. Kathe Tanner is an award-winning reporter for The Tribune and The Cambrian. She also has written a column for The Cambrian since 1981. Friday, May 23, 2008. BEST OF: Fry attack. Most of us at least make a stab or two at trying to eat correctly, doing our low-cal, low-fat, high-exercise penance for past indiscretions. But sometimes, after an angelic breakfast of orange juice and cereal with fat-free milk or yogurt, I’ll get a major munchie attack about half-past lunch. Recently, I...
