16 minute mark: Sockwell and Peterson are playing their best offensive games of the year with 3 dunks between them already. Unfortunately, Sockwell just picked up his 2nd foul on a block attempt. Peterson has gotten a foul on both their starting PF and C. I'm leaving Sockwell in and hoping he doesn't pick up a 3rd. We are down 9-8 as they have hit 3 3's already.

13:39: Peterson gets a 2nd foul on Hoyer. They are up 16-8 with all of their points coming from the perimeter. They are collapsing inside now and guys are missing their perimeter shots.


10:54: My guys are exhausted. Chancler has made our last 7 points and re-opened the middle for Peterson. However, they are nailing outside shots. Down 26-18. We bring in our 2nd team and hope they can hang..

Henning with a nice dunk and the foul gives me some hope. Then, he misses the FT.

5:10 I knew I needed Bruce to come up big.. and he did. He hit almost every shot and much more unexpectedly, he had 2 blocks and a steal during the 5 minute stretch. We are down 36-29 as our starters return.


1:50 left: Pardon can't just beat his man off the dribble as he is too quick, but Pardon is making plenty of hustle plays including saving an errant pass to Chancler who then had a clear lane to the hoop for a dunk. We are down 43-39. Chancler has also hit a 3 recently.


At halftime, we are down 46-41.


Kole is the player of the half with 15 points. 12 of them are from 3 pointers.


Chancler leads our team with 13. Peterson has 11.


19:55: Singleton picks up his 3rd foul but will remain in the game.

19:05 Pardon finally with a nice drive.. he is fouled very hard by Hoyer who has his 3rd.. Pardon is hurt.. grabbing his ankle. We go with Henning as I want to save Bruce for the 2nd unit and I want Henning's size out there.

16:32: We've closed to within 2 when Kole shoots a high arcing 3 right over Chancler who had good defense. 54-49.

14:22: Henning misses a 3 that would have tied it. However, a few seconds later he steals it for a fastbreak dunk. 56-55.

They respond with a 3, a steal, another 3, a block, and a breakaway dunk.

They hit 3's on their next 2 possesions as well after we miss jumpers. Down 70-55 with 12 minutes to go as I rest my starters and hope the bench can give us a spark. Pardon has been cleared and will play with the 2nd unit.

Bruce hits a 3 to end their run. Gardner with a steal and a foul on a dunk attempt!

7:56: Pardon with 5 points during that stretch. We are down 77-65 as our starters return. Henning will come back with the starters as Pardon's mobility is shot.

A Chancler 3 and a Peterson foul shot close us within 8 before they hit a 3, steal it, and hit another 3.

We throw away 2 passes and they extend the lead to 18, but our team fights back with 2 3's by Chancler who is having an incredible night. 86-74. 3:50 left.


We close within 10 as they are finally missing some perimeter shots, but it is too late. We lose the game 92-83.
