Good morning Tiger Nation, and welcome to the Morning Roar.

Let's Unleash the Roar

Today is Thursday, so that means another edition of Tiger Talk will air on the Towson Sports Network. Join hosts Spiro Morekas and Damon Lewis at Bill Bateman's Bistro in Towson from 6-7 p.m. This week guests include @Towson_MLAX head coach Shawn Nadelen and @Towson_MBB head coach Pat Skerry.

@Towson_MLAX fell to 0-3 last night when they took on the No. 2 team in all the land and defending national champion Loyola Greyhounds. The Tigers spotted Loyola four goals to start the game, but right before the half Towson went on a 3-0 run but went into the break down 8-4. The Tigers went on another 4-1 run in the second half but couldn't slow down Mike Sawyer and the Greyhounds and eventually fell 14-9. Junior Thomas DeNapoli had a career-high four goals in the loss. Check out highlights here.

When you're walking to class or work today, take a deep breath and feel the sharp pain of cold air in your lungs. Boy, does that hurt. @Towson_TFXC's Emily Wenger looks forward to running outside more than inside any day (despite the pain) because to her it is much easier to breathe outside. Wenger had a chance to sit down with Milton Kent to talk all about it in the latest edition of A View From Kent Road.

Congratulations to @Towson_GYM's Abby Griswold who was named EAGL Gymnast of the Week after winning the All-Around Championship at the 28th-annual Shelli Calloway Memorial Invitational over the weekend. This is the first time this year any gymnast has won an EAGL Gymnast of the Week award.

Hardwood Talk

It is game day for @Towson_WBB. They are in Harrisonburg, Va. to take on James Madison. The Tigers have won two straight games after defeating Hofstra, 69-60, at the Towson Center on Tuesday. Guards Dominique Johnson and Tanisha McTiller combined for 42 points against the Pride, and if they can keep that up, there are good odds this win streak could be pushed to three games.

On the men's side Jerrelle Benimon is closing in on a school record in just his first season in a Towson uniform. Benimon is just eight rebounds away from setting the Tigers' single-season record for rebounds among Division I players, which is currently held by Robert Nwanko (323). And Benimon is 64 rebounds shy of the Tigers' all-time mark, regardless of division, which is held by Pat McKinley and set back in the 1976-77 season.

Thanks for reading another edition of the Morning Roar. Be sure to check back the same time tomorrow for the latest. Also, follow me on Twitter - Zach Maskavich">@ZachMaskavich.
