[MangyOldBison]

After losing to Minot St yesterday 5-2 the Jimmie women comeback today to beat Lindenwood 6-0. Season probably over but they have a slight chance of making the National tourney. Regardless a very impressive inaugural season. Roll Jimmie’s!!!

A lot to build on and to build with pucknut! Congrats and hats off to your young and talented coach and her contingent! Great start!

COLUMBUS, Ga.-- Jada Shorter became the University of Jamestown's first-ever NAIA diving champion with her first-place finish at the NAIA Women's Swimming and Diving Championships at the Columbus Aquatics Center.

Shorter won the 1-meter diving competition with a score of 236.75 in the finals, slightly higher than the 233.85 she posted in the preliminaries. She becomes a two-time All-American after finishing fourth at last year's nationals.

Laurel Knox earned a 14th-place finish in the 1650 free, finishing in 18:02.00. Knox also competed in the 200 free and 500 free but did not advance to the finals.

Sulinke Vandenberg made her second consecutive appearance at nationals. She swam the 100 fly, 100 back, and 200 back, but just missed making the finals by a few places.

Winsday: UJ makes third straight trip to Kansas City
Men's Basketball
Posted 5 hours ago
The Jimmie men's basketball team earned its third straight trip to the NAIA National Tournament Round of 16 on Wednesday with a 95-88 win over Peru State (Neb.) College at Harold Newman Arena.

Mason Walters poured in a game-high 35 points, one of four Jimmies in double digits. Marc Kjos added a season-high 20 points, including six three-pointers. Will Cordes finished with 15 points and Cole Woodford 13.

Jamestown got off to a fast start, taking an 8-2 lead just 93 seconds into the game. The Bobcats went on a hot streak of their own, outscoring UJ 19-9 to pull in front by four with 12:22 in the half.

That would be the largest lead deficit the Jimmies faced in the first twenty minutes, and a Walters three-point play gave UJ its largest of the half (40-30) with 2:37 remaining.

A 12-2 start to the second half increased Jamestown's advantage to 20 and it appeared UJ was well on its way to victory. Down 74-60 at the eight-minute mark, Peru State locked in and made it a three-point game just under four minutes later.

Walters finished off a 10-1 Jimmie run that essentially put the game away at 91-79. The Bobcats did get as close as five down the stretch, but Reid Gastner and Cordes were perfect at the foul line to clinch the win.

Eleventh-ranked Jamestown (27-6) will face No. 6 Indiana Tech (29-4) on Tuesday at 5 p.m.

Really fun game to be at last night. Mason needs the next 6 days to rest and get healthy. He has alot of wear on his tires this year. Hope he can be close to 100% by tuesday. Still at 85% he scores and dominates.

Excellent stuff pucknut....winning on many fronts! My nephew played at Peru State years ago and they had a beautiful natural bowl for football. I believe its the oldest state school in Nebraska. And the cafeteria folks took exceptional care of those players. He said he never ate so well in his life!

Jimmies men’s basketball team were defeated in their opening round of the nationals. Still one hell of a season

[pucknut9]

Jimmie mens D1 hockey team finally gets the monkey off their back and win their very first game at Nationals 2-1 over Niagara. They will now play Ohio tomorrow in the quarterfinals

[pucknut9]

Heartbreaker for the Jimmie men’s hockey team. Up 3-2 with time running out only to have Ohio score with .1 second left to tie it up and then lose in overtime. That close to the semi finals. Ouch
