CSU Bakersfield (5-7) at Ohio (2-9)
The competition just gets worse and worse. CSU Bakersfield is rated 67 OVR. Our overall strength stays the same with Massey in the lineup instead of House, 78 OVR.
Scouting
Their PG is rated 55 OVR. Their Center 71 OVR. Their other 3 players in the low 60s.
The center, Ronald Bachmann, is 7 feet tall and could be a problem inside. He's averaging 16 points/9 boards a game. Their 55 rated PG can make the 3 pointer on occasion(rated 74 there)

| After tying the game up at 22, they scored 9 straight to take a 31-22 lead. We were able to feed it inside a few times with some success to dig into that lead a little bit.
We're still relying too much today on the outside game. Turner with 7, Massey with 9. They're in a 2-3 zone pretty much the entire time which just totally eliminates Delic, he doesn't have the size to deal with that. Dahi is 2-4 and I need to get him the ball more.

| A nice run on our end starting with baskets by Massey and Cooper, and ending with a 4 point possession, Sessoms is fouled and scores, misses the free throw but Dahi gets the putback.

| We've got it down to 4 after Meade draws a foul and makes 2 free throws. We get a nice lineup on the floor too, we made that little run entirely by going inside to big men, now we've got Massey and Cooper both out there.

| A dunk in transition by Turner and they burn yet another time out. They took a 4 point lead when Bachmann came back in, but we've since scored 7 straight to take our lead.

| 69
| Bachmann gets his millionth rebound of the game(or 20th, something like that), Delic gets WAY up there to block his putback though, we get on the break and Delic draws a foul on our end. We've got all the momentum at this point.

We get the lead up to 9 with 2 minutes left and are able to successfully kill the clock.
Ohio 82
CSU Bakersfield 71
We shot 43% on the game, but held them to 31%. Their big man, Bachmann, scored 15 and got 21 boards on the day. We never did stop him from getting rebounds but we did keep him from scoring in the last few minutes which helped.
Turner: 11 points/6 assists
Massey: 18 points
Cooper: 7 points/6 boards/4 assists
Delic: 14 points/9 boards
Dahi: 13 points/16 boards
Delic and Dahi were 11-18 today. I didn't do a good job using the inside game in the 1
st half, the 2
nd half was MUCH better.
