MBB: USA South Conference

So

9 for 21 from the free-throw line. That's the game. Not much more to say about that...

Great game to watch though, SU's kids played hard until the final whistle.  We don't match up well when it comes to the height advantage from CNU down low, but our guys didn't give up. JLawrence had a huge game with 28 points, 18 boards and 4 blocks - all against guys who were much taller. He carried us.  It really hurts him to have Onyie out injured (I think OO averages about 15 pts. and 10 rbs per game) but he did everything he could to try and win this one. He did get some help, I don't think it shows well in the boxscore because the 3-point % was pretty low, but LAdams hit three big 3's for us to keep us in it. All-in-all we had looks at the end of regulation and a chance to tie in overtime, our guys just came up a little short. 

As for the Captains, they seemed to just sub in taller guys every two minutes...  By halftime I was waiting for Shaq to go show up. I thought #43 and #45 were impressive on the offensive end.  #43 had a huge wingspan and#45 was pretty strong but they really didn't seem to rebound well.  I was disappointed in #50, thought he played much better against us last year.  Oddly enough, it was #11 who seemed to make the most impact in the game, that kid could play - opened things up and he seemed to hit some key shots even though he didn't have many points at the end of the day.   

CNU is very solid, but I've seen much better squads from them over the years.  Haven't seen Averett play yet, so I really couldn't say who should be at the top for now.

Oh, and sorry to have my late post get in the way of the Mensa-Pride1-Narch feud.  Please feel free to proceed to bash each other again.

i really like both of these guys...lawrence is a fantastic player and onyie is a beast...it's too bad that he's missing some time because of injury, especially after missing the conference portion of the season last year - he's a poty caliber player when he's on the court...any idea when he'll return to action?

Narch-

For once we agree.  I don't think you are whining at all.

I honestly didn't realize it had been 12 years for the Pride.  By the way, did you spell "winning" with only one "n" to keep up the "whine/wine and cheese" routine?  Funny.

what is this? from what ive observed, narch is the class of this board, and he is definitely not whining (or wining). i am definitely keeping score on this karma thing until i have enough posts under my belt to make my mark, and mr pride1; you are going to take a hit from me when i hit that magic 200 post mark. go ahead and smite me now, cause youre going to take a hit from me very soon.

wait a minute... pride1 has a lot fewer posts than i do, i guess hes not smiting anyone.

wow

Pat when will the new regional rankings come out. I looked and the havent posted any since feb 22 of last year

[PrideSportBBallGuy]

Pat-

I think I can help with Gullett.  Gullett the regional rankings don't come out until the last couple weeks of the season.  Plus you can get them right off the NCAA website once they are released.  I believe they actually have a date when they will be released.
