SIENA INDIAN - GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
In 1988 Siena became one of the first schools in the nation to get away from using a Native American nickname dropping the name “Indians” and actually going without a moniker for an entire season. During the 1988 season they were often referred to as the Siena “no-names” and during that memorable season the “Tee Pee Rowdies cheering section became know affectionately as the “Pee Pee Rowdies” section while “Red Injun Tomahawk Man” their long beloved and appropriately named mascot was replaced with a leprechaun dressed in the school colors. The new Mascot didn’t last long however, as their was a huge backlash against the school administration as leprechaun’s protested over being stereotyped as short, and green, and the school was forced to acknowledge that the new mascot could affect Leprechaun’s self-esteem and social identity development. Following the leuprechaun debacle, school officials began an aggressive effort to identify a new moniker that would not be offensive to anyone. While initially considering names like Warriors, Redman, Braves, Redskins and Savages, all of which had popular support among the student body, school officials were concerned that “The same “namby pamby “ people that objected to the name Indians won’t like these names either.” So the school rejected those names and shortlisted a list of names that included Green Tide, Eagles, Saints and Friars, while dropping some innovative suggestions like Canalleers, Gummi Bears, Green Ninja Turtles and the always popular Fighting Pickles. Sadly, the Fighting Pickles name was dropped when the North Carolina School of Arts objected to another school grabbing their infamous Fighting Pickles name. As we all know, the great mascot controversy at Siena ended with the selection of the name “Saints” as a moniker. Still thirty years after the controversy some fans look back at that era with regret, and wonder why a name like Gummy Bears wasn’t selected. After all who doesn’t like gummy bears…….
COMIC OF THE DAY
SERIES HISTORY
This is the second meeting of the season between the Saints and Stags, Siena won the opener by a score of 65-49. Siena leads the all-time series 41-33.
SCOUTING THE SAINTS
Siena enters Sundays game winners of seven of their last eight, with their lone defeat at current MAAC frontrunner Saint Peter’s As a result, the Saints moved into a tie for first place with St. Peters before St. Peters moved a half game ahead with their win over Manhattan last night. Siena’s success has coincided with its new starting lineup of Camper - Burns - Harris, Jr. - Carey - Pickett. The Saints’ seven victories during their streak have come by an average of more than 13 points, with six by nine points or more.
IMPROVING THEIR DEFENSE
The Saints’ recent success has been predicated on a much-improved defense In their past eight wins, Siena is allowing an average of under 60 points per game holding opponents to a shooting average under 40% during that Stretch.
ONE OF THE BEST HOME TEAMS IN THE NATION
Siena is a perfect 13-0 in Albany this season, and is one of just 19 remaining Division I teams who are unbeaten at home. The Saints however will play four of their final five regular season games on the road, where they’ve posted a 1-10 record to date this season
MAAC RECORDS
The Saints have 302 wins in MAAC competition which is 3 more than Fairfield despite the fact that the Stags have played in the MAAC for 8 years longer than Siena. Only Iona and Manhattan have more conference wins than Siena.
SCORING LEADER
Three Saints are among the top 10 in the conference in scoring: Jalen Picket(4TH), Elijah Burns(5TH) and Manny Camper(9TH).
HAPPY CAMPER
Siena’s Manny Camper Ranks 26th nationally in rebounding (10.2), and 21st in defensive rebounding (7.3)
BURNS THE COMPETITION
Entering the week Siena’s Elijah Burns Ranked 12th nationally in field goal percentage (.626), he also ranks third in the MAAC in free throw percentage (.850), fifth in scoring (14.6), and eighth in rebounding (6.1)
MAAC LEADERS
Fairfield is first in the conference in scoring defense (63.1 ppg) while Siena is first in the conference in scoring offense (72.6 ppg)

★
Summary: Will Ferrell stars in Semi-Pro, an outrageous comedy set in 1976 against the backdrop of the maverick ABA a wild and crazy basketball league that attempted to rival the NBA.
Jimmy’s Review: The only things missing from this film are a plot, script, and capable acting. The movie will bring us all together, I imagine, in paralyzing boredom. Add it all up, and what you’ve got here is a waste of the electricity that runs from the wall to the projector.

TRIVIA ANSWER
According to Sports-Reference.com the Stags have had a 16 offensive rebound advantage twice since 2010:
+16 2012-01-06 Fairfield @ Siena
+16 2013-02-12 Fairfield vs. Manhattan
*According to SportsReference.com
HEARD BUT PROBABLY NOT TRUE
Siena Pursuing 4 Star Recruit
Siena is rumored to be heavily involved with Pierre Patate, a player out of Saint McDonald’s in Schenectady. Not a noted basketball school, Saint McDonald’s is known for having some of the best fryers in the world…..
Russian Hacking affects conference standings
Fairfield Coach Jay Young has urged Richard Ensor and the FBI to move forward with an investigation into Russian hacking, claiming that there was ample evidence to support the theory that malicious foreign agents infiltrated and influenced the outcome of multiple basketball games at the Times Union center this year. “Clearly it is not possible that Siena could win 12 straight home games this season while winning only one on the road, the only possible explaination is Russian hacking.”
While some have challenged Young’s allegations suggesting that playing in front of 5000 home fans might give Siena a home court advantage, Young dismisses this possiblity. “The scores of several games appeared to show suspicious activity, and the fact that Fairfield didn’t even score 50 points against Siena is highly suggestive of scoreboard tampering by the Russians. I am confident the results of several games were influenced by Russian hackers, possibly costing Fairfield the MAAC championship,” Young continued, adding that Putin “needs to keep his commie hands” off of the sovereign Independent MAAC conference and stop acting as an agent for Siena. Carmen Maciariello (if that is in fact his real name) denies any ties to Russia but he did admit to being mistaken for Putin at a recent Vodka drinking contest.
