Gary is starting in place of Hooley.

I agree with our color man on Fox 980 that this will be a great defensive test for Gary Johnson. We need a several lock-down defenders on the perimeter come Tournament time.

The red team is double-teaming our guards off the high ball screens so far.

 

Red team getting clean looks from the three-point line (all nine points from 3 three pointers).

 

Our bigs, however, are playing great interior defense so far.

 

DJ Evans in for Iati for defensive reasons (J. Papale with two three pointers for the red team).

 

9-9 tie score, first media timeout.

Metcalf, 2-minute penalty for a cross-check on Morris.

 

All 12 points for the red team from 3s. (Update: BU scores their first two-point basket in the first half at the 10:46 mark.)

 

Red team is (again) double teaming our guards off the high ball screens just as effectively as they did against us in the first game.

 

Maine up 17-14 on UVM so far. Go figure.

2 fouls for DJ.. wonder if he'll be pulled out for the rest of the half.

Coach might have to leave DJ in; red team's guards are eating us up.

 

I don't understand how the red team has so many wide-open looks for taking three pointers. Are they that much more athletic than us?

 

Two straight charging fouls on Black. Both Black and DJ have 2 fouls.

UA_MA...yeah, they are significantly more athletic especially on the wings and back-court. Their speed an penetration opens things up for them.

8to's the difference in the game right now...

BU is very limited inside and are a lot of perimiter...why are we leaving them wide open?

Yikes, they just said they are no taller than 6'7". We have to keep pounding it in to Puk.

 

Down 9 points, now down 2 at the half, 32-30. Impressive.

Good first half...nice late run.

[Dane Pound]

Funny that Rowley wasn't a starter at the beginning of the year and now we aren't the same team when he's off the floor. He had 10 pts and 4 assists.

[UA_MA_2000]

I generally don't favor using a zone defense against a team that can shoot well from deep, but perhaps a 3-2 zone might be something to try in the second half. We have to focus on their guards. Make the red team's big men beat us.
