    Safe to assume that we can pick up the tickets at a will call desk/window in Burlington?

    My guess is a call to the ticket office will answer your question.

     

    Yes . they can be picked up there.

    Also I believe on the bus if you are taking the bus.

    I asked about getting mine on Friday after the womens game

    Historically the Alumni Association had their own set of tickets, this year each person has to buy it from atheltics. I wouldn't assume previous years practices of giving tickets out of the bus are the same. It could be,but we shouldn't assume it.

    I responded based on what ticket office said to me.

    At the time I asked , I wasn't sure if I was taking the bus.

    Thanks.

    I HATE being negative . But we constantly play 5 on 4 with Rowley out there . He is terrible offensively. No idea why Brown sticks with him.

     

    Probably a bit of seniority rules...he's getting playing time because it would be hard to bench a guy who's been part of the rotation for the 3 prior years. He's playing because he's a senior.

     

     

    I hate to negative in a big win. Mike does have 3 RB's and a steal.

    Clearly he isnt shooting well last week or so but yeah he fouls less than any big on the team. As an alternative they could start Charles who would foul out in the first 20 minutes.

    Based on 40 minutes of play Charles would average 17.7pts, 9.41RB's and 6.28 fouls.

    Based on 40 minutes of play Rowley would average 8.7 pts., 7.23 RB's and 4.04 fouls.

     

    Defense is obviously harder to put on paper but in my opinion we are a better team with Charles on the floor.

    Travis doesnt and cant play center. Would rather those shots go to Cremo and David

     

     

    Stire can play center no?

  5. Giving up only 55 points, while providing the other team with 18 TO's (extra possessions) is not a bad defensive showing. We should win almost every time we allow 55 points. I'm not looking at the short stretch where a guy that shoots <33% (after last night) buries a few 3's. Should we have got out on him? Of course. Should we be working on O or D the next couple of days based solely on this game? I'd say 90% on O.

  6. I'm always offense minded. I think we can out score most teams on our schedule. Not that we can play no D of course. I like 80. Not that we necessarily need to but that when we score 80 we win, and that's been constant over the years. We've lost plenty of games where we've held teams in the low 60's and even 50's, but I think you could count on one hand the times we've scored 80+ and lost. Many of those while giving up high 60's and 70's.

  7. Second half D wasn't great for sure, but are we (or coach) really blaming this game on defense? We gave up 55 points even with the offense giving them the ball an additional 18 times. My focus might be on the other end of the floor. Things that I struggle with:

     

    • Mike Rowley had 4 points in the first 4 minutes, played 39 minutes and finished with 6 points (and 10 RB's).
    • Dallas played 27 minutes and took 2 shots (I believe both late in the game).
    • 1-9 from 3.
    • CB had John Iati do the post game. Admitted they got out coached.
    • If it wasn't part of my season ticket package I'd ask for a refund. We made 0 adjustments to the 1-3-1.

    I've emailed the ticket office but most likely won't hear back until Monday. Does anybody know if the GDAC Priority Points for season tickets consecutive years is retro active for the number of years you've had the tickets or is this year the first year that it counts?

    I think it is as far back as they have records.

    The lcc fans who just fell off their bandwagon and got season tickets for the first tine this season would be at the bottom of that list :)

     

    I don't think it goes back totally. They probably only have records back 9 years. That's what I have credit for. I know I've had season tickets longer than we've been D1. They use all your priority points, not just those for season tickets.

     

     

    Thanks both. Hoping to get it straightened out by Monday. I'm only getting 1 years worth and I go back to the DII years.

  9. Am I reading the ticket prices correct? $100 for gold seats? Only 9 available so I guess why not.

    Just like so many sports, you go into the stall and you lose.

    If they were stalling they did a pretty bad job at it. That's the difference without Lyle. He would have kept the ball in his stick until they put the shot clock on.

     

     

    I think the last possession they were definitely trying to stall. I get the idea, especially when you can't win a faceoff, but that's not our style. We lost the ball while running away from the net and during that possession never really looked towards the goal. They were pressuring (and I'm no expert believe me) and to me that's the time to attack.
