Greetings from the Athletics-Recreation Center as Valparaiso is taking on Lindenwood. I'll have updates here throughout the game. Big news to start as All Wright is IN the starting lineup in place of Isaiah Shaw.

Hi. I'm Paul. I write about Valparaiso University Athletics for TheVictoryBell.com. I was once verified at the Bad Place and Post Malone followed me. That was maybe my height of coolness. I'm still there, but I'm also here. I don't know what being here means, but I'm glad you're here too.
