The unofficial online home for fans of the Old Dominion University Monarchs. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

Something I am Proud of.... We can pound our collective chest as our Monarchs have a very good day.

Starting with 6 ODU Wrestlers qualifying for the NCAA Tournament. Would love to see a few make All-American from this group

Our ODU Baseball team kicked butt and sent VMI home after we claimed two victories, Yesterday and today. We hammered them today with 15 runs as the cadets only had 5 make it to home plate.

Our Men's Basketball team flew into Texas and played a very good game against Marshall, prevailing with a 73 58 win. Now, they earn the privilege to continue on in the CUSA tournament and play MTSU tomorrow at 4:30 EST.

Finally, the Lady monarchs continued ODU's good fortune beating a very good UTSA team by the score of 79 - 74 and will move on to play Southern Miss. tomorrow night at 9:30 pm EST

We can all share in ODU's success. We have many reasons to be proud.

WTG Monarchs * My pride is showing * Continue to Aim High

A Pride is defined as being a social group of lions. So you're good with your moniker.

FWIW: Murray State, our second victim of the season, won the CIT.

Just some more info on the attendance numbers and some historical info, if you like that sort of thing.

2013-2014: 5,778 (-12.6%), 6189 (-6.3%) if you don't count CBI, 6,407 for C-USA home games
2012-2013: 6,608 (-10.2%)
2011-2012: 7,362 (-4.9%), 7681 (-.8%) if you don't count CIT games
2010-2011: 7,745

Winning will fix that.

Couldn't be more pleased with the improvement of the team. Progress = butts in seats. Glad we left the imploding CAA when we did.
