Wisconsin with good defense, but our offense is running plays well right now. Up 10-6 at the 15 minute mark.

We are up 16-14 at the 10 minute mark.


Up 20-18 at the 5 minute mark. Both benches are struggling to score.


We are up 33-28 at the half.

Hannan is the player of the half with 11 points, 2 boards, and 2 steals. He has shot 4 of 7 in the first half.


We are up 45-35 with 15 minutes to go in the game. We are starting to break down Wisconsin's defense, particularly Everett off of screens and pick-and-rolls.

We did build a big lead, but a 12-0 run cuts it to 52-50 with 9 minutes to go.


Up 58-52 with 4 minutes to go after a Clifford slam dunk on the fast break!


Up 61-56 with 2:40 to go.

After a missed basket by us, they draw a foul. 61-57 with 1:45 to go.

Everett with a perfect pass to Graves off a screen who hits the 3 from the top of the key!


We win the game 68-60.


Graves was the player of the game. 20 points, 2 assists, 2 boards, and a steal. He shot 7 of 9, 2 of 3, and 4 of 4 as we played a very smart game and worked very hard to create good looks for our guys and avoided dumb shots.

Hannan had 18 points, 2 boards, 2 assists, and 2 steals. He shot 7 of 13, 2 of 4, and 2 of 2.

Everett had 4 points, 3 boards, 7 assists, and 4 steals, along with 4 turnovers. He shot 0 of 3.

Cornette had 7 points and 5 boards.

Interestingly, Simon only had 5 points and 5 boards along with 2 blocks. With the adjusted fatigue, he played 29 minutes as he is my best conditioned player.

Clifford with 5 points, 3 boards, and a block off the bench. Collins also had 5 points and surprisingly a block.


Wierd schedule from our AD this year, we still have 2 non-conference games sprinkled into our schedule later in the year. However, next up is Iona who are less talented than we are, but they are 10-2. We play them at home.



Bad (but not unexpected) news on the recruiting front. Superstar SG Kurt Songcuacy has now been offered a scholarship by WVU and that is apparently close enough to Toronto for him to be very interested. We've dropped to a distant 2nd on his list of schools. I still will keep pursuing him for now.
