With apologies to Ben Franklin, the Blue Hose hope to prove that his adage brings wins in addition to making a person healthy, wealthy and wise. PC will play three games in the first month of the season at noon or earlier. Thus far in the season, PC is 0-1 in early games. Queens of the Road The Blue Hose will get accustomed to playing on the road this season as the first eight games of the season will be played away from the friendly confines of Clinton. The eight games will be played over five road trips contested in New York and North Carolina. The first home game will be on December 5th against Georgia State and it will be the front-end of a Men s/women s Basketball doubleheader.

A Blue Hose is a fierce Scotch-Irish warrior. If you have ever seen the movie Braveheart, you have seen a true Blue Hose. Despite this depiction, it still has been asked many times where Presbyterian College received its Blue Hose nickname. Several rumors exist and Ray Frank in his book, What s In A Nickname delved into the subject. Frank discovered that there were many opinions. One story had it that the Presbyterian Scotch-Irish wore blue stockings in the Puritan beginnings of our country. Another said that a fierce war-like band of Scotch- Irish named the Hose painted their entire bodies blue before going into battle. Yet, probably the true story lies in a letter dated June 15, 1935, written by then PC athletic director Walter Johnson to an inquiring English professor in Virginia... (quoting from Walter Johnson s letter) It was about the second or third year, 1915, if I remember right. I think it happened this way: I changed uniform colors to blue, wearing blue stockings and jerseys, and some sports writer started calling in his articles the Presbyterian College teams the Blue Stockings.... in later years Stocking became abbreviated to the Hose, particularly in newspaper headlines, and was more or less officially adopted by the student body in the 1950 s. All the PC media guides since 1996 continued to elaborate on the issue, quoting an article by Ben Hay Hammet entitled The Spirt of PC. The piece by Hammet articulated that, Johnson always insisted on the fact that his players wear long blue socks similar to stockings (after all, there were White Sox and Red Sox in baseball). Coach Johnson s explanation may simply be coincidental to the fact that the phrase Blue Stocking Presbyterian goes back informally quite a few years in the denomination s history. Nevertheless, PC s athletic nickname was shortened to Blue Hose in 1954.

4 Fountain of Youth This year s Blue Hose will be one of the youngest in Division I with just two players with multiple years experience at PC. There are seven newcomers on the 13-player roster. For those of you keeping score at home, that s over half the roster making their first campaign with the Blue Hose. No Tournament??? If you wonder why the Big South Conference tournament doesn t appear on the schedule, the simple answer is that PC isn t eligible. The Blue Hose are in their third season of reclassification to Division I. While in the period, the Blue Hose are not eligible for postseason play according to NCAA rules. Mills Moving Up Junior Amanda Mills made an impact on the PC record books in her first season by moving into tenth place all-time in three point field goals with 68 in her first campaign with the Blue Hose. She needs just 17 more from the bonusphere to move into ninth place all-time at PC. PC Women s Basketball Game Notes 11/25/09 Page 4 SCORING BREAKDOWN HUSTLE STATS Boatloads of Experience The six returning Blue Hose players bring back loads of experience to the hardwood into the season. Out of 228 total games last year, the returners have played in 167. The six returning players average 27.8 games played in from the season. Running for the Cure On September 26th eight members of the Presbyterian College women s basketball team participated in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in Greenville, S.C. The student-athletes raised money for the foundation and ran in the 5K event. Those interested in helping the team reach their goal of raising 1,000 dollars can help out at: my.e2rm.com/teampage.aspx?teamid= Think Pink This season PC women s basketball will participate in the WBCA Pink Zone promotion. The team will wear pink for the game to promote breast cancer awareness. This season s Pink Zone game will be on Feb. 9 against Allen.
