McM 89  UTT 74.  Final.
I'm driving back to Dallas from California.  My original plan was to put me in Abilene tonight to catch this game in person.  But I was delayed a day starting because of some food poisoning, so I will have get lucky some other time.

Thanks for the heads up.  I'll try to make it.

Ozarks 98, CUA 85

Ozarks did a great job defensively, contesting nearly every shot CUA took. McDonald finished with 18 after a cold shooting night, and four or five Tornados finished between 11-18 points as I recall. Habeeb Kareem finished with something like 10 points and 6-7 boards, but he missed a huge chunk of time in the first half with foul trouble. Speaking of which, it was a very physical game and the refs let 'em play for the most part.

The worst part of the game came in the first half when CUA had a guy go up for a 2-4 ft. layup/jumper and get submarined enough to land facedown on the court (couldn't see what part hit first). There was no foul called. Now, in a situation like that, where a player is obviously fouled by an opponent (there were I think three Eagles in the immediate area) and gets hurt, but there is no call, IMO it is better to give a foul to the wrong guy than not to give one at all. If you don't call something, the fouled team is just going to get ticked off and maybe do something stupid. Our guy came back in the second half, btw.
Let's go 'Nados!

Great win for HSU last night.

LeTourneau played poorly for 30 minutes last night, but unsung hero Jesse Hayes, a freshman PG, hit four straight three pointers late in the game to lead the Jackets to victory over TLU.  The Bulldogs could be pretty decent next year.  They are all freshmen and sophomores this year and you could tell.  JC Herebia and Nate Walton were both impressive.  Herebia does a great job of clearing space in the lane and then finishing the shot.

BTW, LETU did not shoot a free throw until 38 seconds were left in the game.  It almost appeared that the refs did not want to allow them to get to the line as numerous times in the second half the Jackets took it hard to the basket, received contact and no call was made.  Oh well, probably just sour grapes on my part, but I think it was the worst ref'd game I've seen this year.
