In 37 minutes of play, Hope has just five turnovers. 

...and they have 10 steals.  No wonder they're up 10.

They have something to prove tomorrow night!

But Hope is also only 5-13 from the line.  They will eventually (knock on wood) pay for that.

Odd stat: both teams are hitting their threes more consistently than their free throws.  Looks like there's a lot of brick dust under the backboards from errant free throw attempts (collectively 13-33).

Hard to tell because my audio has crapped out (internet has been shaky all night) but it appears that at the 1:30 mark Albion is fouling the rest of the night.  Not a bad strategy from the shooting that has been displayed.

[David Collinge]

Hope has hit at least 6 straight free throws down the stretch to ice the game.

[tniem]

Voison hit two free throws at the 38 second mark to put Hope up 11.  They have hit them down the stretch when they have focused and needed to make them to put the game away.

[David Collinge]

Hope wins, 76-65.  Albion's season is assuredly over, sad to say.

Congrats on a great season Albion. Good luck with the Pool C bid.
