Focused Raiders concentrating on HuskiesBy Marc Katz, Staff Writer Updated 2:05 AM Saturday, November 28, 2009 BOSTON — In a city central in our nation’s birth and at Northeastern, a school that just this week pulled the plug on its football team, Wright State tries to continue its winning streak today, Nov. 28. None of that other stuff matters to the Raiders, who don’t sightsee or have a varsity football team of their own. WSU plays basketball and, with a nod toward history, held Thanksgiving Day dinner in their downtown Boston hotel. It is a confident, but not complacent team striving for its third straight victory after opening the season with a five-point loss to No. 14 Washington. It would be easy for the Raiders to look at Northeastern’s 1-2 record and dismiss the Huskies as just another team, although virtually this same team beat the Raiders in the Nutter Center last season. If things do not go well today, WSU coach Brad Brownell doesn’t want complacency to be an excuse. “Complacent is too easily said,” Brownell said. “A year ago, we told our team we had to get more detail-oriented. Our margin of error was not as big as we thought it was.” The Raiders, overconfident, lost their first six games. Brownell said that was also a period in which the Raiders were “sorting out jobs. Guys didn’t separate themselves. Very few were better than anybody else and we could play anybody all the time. Everybody was just OK.” Already this season, Brownell has used 11 of his 12 players — only injured John David Gardner has not yet suited up — and he sees a separation. Although his three freshmen — Paul Darkwa, Darian Cartharn and Tyler Koch — have played (Cartharn the most), the older nine players — all juniors and seniors — have separated from the others. It’s Brownell’s theory to let anyone who can score do so, as long as they play defense as well. That’s why six different Raiders — led by senior Todd Brown — have already scored in double figures and the last one to do it, Vaughn Duggins, will do it often again. Duggins was the team’s leading scorer two years ago, but missed most of last season with an injury. He missed the first three games of this season under suspension by Brownell, returning to action with not only a superior defensive effort against Central Michigan, but with 21 points as well. He, for one, isn’t going to be complacent. www.daytondailynews.com/dayton-sports/wright-state-university-raiders/focused-raiders-concentrating-on-huskies-423289.html

Preview: Wright State at NortheasternBy Marc Katz, Staff Writer Updated 2:04 AM Saturday, November 28, 2009 Wright State (3-1) at Northeastern (1-2) When: 2 p.m. Radio: WONE-AM (980), WIZE-AM (1340). About the Huskies They are picked to finish second in the Colonial Athletic Association, just as WSU was picked to finish second in the Horizon League. Matthews Arena, where the Huskies play, is touted to be the world’s oldest multi-purpose arena, built in 1910 and refurbished this past year. Opening-round victory in last season’s CBI tournament was school’s first postseason victory since 1984. To help pay for the arena, the school announced it is dumping football after 74 seasons. The school was spending $4 million annually on the sport and averaging fewer than 2,000 fans during a sixth-straight losing season at 3-8. Former Bengals tight end Dan Ross played here. About the Raiders They have won three straight and after this game jump into Horizon League play hosting Cleveland State and Youngstown State on Thursday and Saturday. After that, it’s six more nonconference games before the rest of the HL schedule begins. Coach Brad Brownell won’t say when junior Vaughn Duggins gets back into the starting lineup, but he was the only player to play more than 30 minutes (31) against Central Michigan on Tuesday. Todd Brown, who had only five 20-point games last season, has three already and is shooting 57.4 percent. www.daytondailynews.com/dayton-sports/wright-state-university-raiders/preview-wright-state-at-northeastern-423271.html
