Need to attack their zone a whole lot better. Chucking up NBA threes ain’t it.

Only 3 FGs in the final 7:30 and yet we’re tied at half.

And for the stat everyone is waiting for .........

No, it's not free shots. It's 5-21 from 3.

Tomi and Mirkovic, 2 starters, with 0 points.

3s don’t matter. It’s free-shots that matter.

Need free shots when the 3s don't fall.

3 shots don't matter for 11am 10 point January victories when the students are not back!

We escaped the sleepy morning January head scratching home loss that has become a Brad Underwood trademark.

Consecutive 11 AM victories!
