 CALDWELL,
N.J. - The Caldwell College women's basketball team begins the 2006-07
season this weekend at the Huskies Tip-Off Classic in Bloomsburg, Pa., one
of two tournaments on the Cougars' schedule this season. Caldwell also
travels to Omaha, Neb., for the University of Nebraska-Omaha's Thanksgiving
Classic Nov. 25-26.
The Cougars kick off the 2006-07 campaign on Friday, Nov. 17 against the
host Huskies of Bloomsburg University. The game starts at 8:00 p.m. and will
be broadcast on the internet on
Bloomsburg's athletics website. Saturday's match-up has the Cougars
facing Lock Haven University at 1:00 p.m. In Omaha, Caldwell plays the host
Mavericks at 7:00 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 25 before playing Minnesota
State-Mankato on Sunday at 2:00 p.m.
"We have some tough non-conference opponents on our schedule, but I think
those games will help us prepare for the conference games," said head coach
Linda Cimino, who begins her first season at Caldwell. Cimino and the
Cougars also will host her alma mater, Adelphi University, in a non-league
game on Jan. 6.
The home and conference schedule begins on Tuesday, Nov. 28, with a game
against Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference rival Bloomfield College,
starting at 6:00 p.m. in the George R. Newman Center. Other highlights of
the CACC slate include games with contenders Philadelphia University Jan.
11, the University of Sciences Jan. 27 and Holy Family University Feb. 10.
The CACC Tournament begins on Feb. 28, with the semifinals and finals being
held on Mar. 2-3 at Dominican College in Orangeburg, N.Y.
The Cougars return all 10 players from last year's squad that went 8-20 and
