Men's Basketball team is 20-4

If you haven't seen the historical basketball team at Davis this year it has been really exciting from the games I have attended. So far this season the Men's Basketball Team have won 20 games and lost 4. Tomorrow (Saturday, February 21, 2009) they travel to Valley Forge for the last game of the official season before regional playoffs. Due to them winning against Lancaster Bible College on February 13, 2009 they earned the first play off game on Home turf. That game will be next week (Thursday, February 26, 2009). The time is yet to bet set. If you are in the area come by and cheer on the team!

Sports in the early years of PBTS

Here are the sports teams in the 1925 Theologue. Note the clothes that the men and women wore for the sports. According to the Theologue men's Interclass League was started in September of 1923 by Dr. Charles Williams (below)
The girl's athletics consisted "chiefly of Marching Tactics, Calisthenics and indoor athletic games. Besides this the girls played many fast and exciting games of Volley Ball." (p 56 1925 Theologue). Over the years the sports changed, but it wouldn't be until Woodrow Kroll was president that the sports teams began to play on a college league instead of church leagues. There was even a tennis court on campus though I have never been told or seen exactly where it was at one point. Many games were played in King Hall where many of the activities were done until the Robb Gym was completed in 1981.
