OT: GVSU Sports Blog?
I'll be starting college at GVSU in the fall, and I was wondering if any MGoBloggers were fans and knew of a good/existent GVSU sports blog. I was looking to get caught up on some GVSU sports, but I may have to rely on local newspapers. A google search came up with nothing, so a blog may not exist, but I figured I'd see if anybody knew.
But there's got to be SOMETHING out there. GVSU is too good to not have an internet following someplace. They're ripping D2 to shreds, and should frankly be moving up to 1AA.
I was kind of surprised to not find anything in a google search. I'm well aware of the football team's domination, but I have no clue on other sports.
Are you from Kalamazoo? Did you go to Kalamazoo Christian?
Do you have ties to the school? I actually went to a HS in the KVA.
I went to K-Christian
I went to Parchment class of 2002.
Class of 99
Participated in Football, Wrestling, and Track.
I'm from Muskegon and I went to Reeths-Puffer. Must have me confused with someone else.
The Mafia can't have information going out to the public.
Has good information but is updated sporadically.
Most of the people who post about D2 football do so either on mlive forums or the D2football.com forums. About half of the people who post seem to be GVSU fans, and the other half are fans from other schools in the GLIAC.
They have won or made extended tourney runs in football, womens soccer, baseball, mens basketball, womens basketball, volleyball, track, cross country, womens golf, and softball as well as club championships in water polo and wrestling. They've won the Directors cup the last six years, given to the top athletic program in each NCAA Division. They're pretty good.
I graduated from Grand Valley and was never aware of any sort of blog. The truth is 99% of students don't care about anything except football and they still leave games at halftime (even if it's a close). There's a scout site that is rarely updated so I've stopped following it, though the premium board might be a decent source. If you have any specific questions I would be glad to offer some answers since I have quite a bit of experience with GVSU Athletics.
And just to get it out of the way, they have no interest in going D1.
... but there is a dedicated sports Etch-A-Sketch that's passed around the Student Services Building lobby.
Good luck and go Lakers.
I actually go to GVSU and im not sure if there is any sports blog for them. I think most of the student s only care about football because the team plays for the national title all the time so they can tell people their school runs division II. gives them some sort of school pride. I do know the girls soccer teams won the national title this year which is pretty cool. If you get a chance take a class with Damon Arnold. He is the shit.
