Marist College's Meg Dahlman Scores 1,000th Career Point
Jan 11, 2008 | 5:04PM | report this

Holy cow, that's a lot of points. Meg Dahlman is the 13th player in Marist College history to hit the mark, according to this brief in my hometown newspaper. She scored most of them in her last three years as a Marist starter.

To put this in perspective, when I played basketball in middle & high school, I scored 43 points. It took three years to get 43 points. 43...1,000. Uma...Oprah.

Congrats Meg!

And congrats to the Marist women's team. They're having a fine season at 13-2, playing Loyola tonight. The Marist coach, Brian Giorgis will be profiled on MSG's Aeropostale College Basketball Weekly this Sunday.

I'm taking my girls team to see Marist on Friday, Jan. 25th to see them play Sienna. First 1,000 fans get t-shirts! Of course, on the girls, they'll be huge...they can wear them as pajamas, maybe. = )

Go Marist!

That "Uma...Oprah" reference. I'm surprised people still remember that.

Congrats to Meg Dahlman.

I saw Dahlman play a few times in high school and knew she would have a decent college career, but I have to admit that 1,000 career points exceeds my expectations.

And she was red-shirted for one year, so that's even more amazing.
