Vermont

According to today's Burlington Free Press,

 

"Coppenrath, the No. 2 scorer in the country, knocked down three field goals, connected on 8-of-9 foul shots and finished with 14 points, well below his 25.6 average. In Coppenrath's defense, he hasn't been feeling well.

 

"He hasn't been sleeping well and he hasn't been handling food well," Vermont coach Tom Brennan said about Coppenrath. "We've held him out of practice the last couple of days to get him some rest.

 

"But after tonight, we figured it's more than that. It's more than just rest. There's something wrong with him and we have to figure it out. We're going to take him to see a doctor tomorrow."

 

This might level the playing field a bit for Saturday, even though I would like to play Vermont at its best. That being said, he will probably get healthy between now and then and drop 43 points on us.
