2024-25 Season

[Berkman]

Bad 2 nd period and trail 28 - 23 at the half.

[Berkman]

Good 3 rd period and now lead 41 - 37.

[LS71]

That 3rd period was awesome. They outscored LaSalle 21-9.

[Berkman]

Nice win 60 - 50.

[Rolling Ridge]

Great win. A little sluggish to start, but we eventually wore them down. Great defensive effort, and solid offensively once they found their game.

[Juice Stand]

Another win and now both the men and women are tied with Dayton for 4th place. Up next is 5-17 (1-10 in the A10) St. Bonaventure at home on Wednesday. It's shaping up to be a fun February.

[Old Cage]

Turned their game on early third. Announcers were saying it was much like the first half. A few minutes later someone hits an "on" button and they run 21-3. Nice. I did not see any strategy change.

They should beat SBU at home as SBU might be the worst team in the league. That would put them at 8-4. Raise your hand if you thought, in your wildest dreams, that the team could be 8-4 at this point.


I have looked through my Sci-Fi scanner and I do not see any hands. Thanks for being honest.

^ Maybe not 8-4 but you could see they had the building blocks to be pretty good, just needed to get that nucleus they had during the Breen years! Also, 7 of their 10 losses were by 6 points or less.

I'm not sure anyone saw building blocks, especially early on this season. This is trending very nicely!

A nice win on the road. McKayle, who is somewhat turnover prone, had just 1 turnover and 5 assists. Hopefully they can keep the 5 of 7 rotation players, who are eligible to return for next year.

^ IV, I hope you're not calling me a Liar!

[InnervisionsUMASS]

Nope, if you really saw the potential then god bless ya. Like I said, happy it is trending positively.

[tdmass]

^ Thanks

I'll be honest. We lost 6 of our top 8 scorers from last year. Had no idea how good any of the new players would be. So I was figuring maybe 8 wins this year, perhaps 4 in conference. As it turns out, the replacements are much better than the women they replaced and the 3 main returnees (Steph, Chineneye and Lilly are all contributing. I'm happy for Mike as he's a good guy and was put in a crappy situation.
