"Protect the ball!"  That's the theme for the halftime lockerroom chat.  

With a size disadvantage, I can see giving up the rebound margin, but you've GOT to take care of the ball.  The turnover margin should be in Hope's favor if they want to win this game.  Shooting went a little stale, and the fouls started being called more evenly.  But Hope will need to curb the turnovers and shoot better from the line (6 of 10) to win the second half.

Freshman mistake:  You're up by 4.  Miss the dunk, foul the rebounder, who makes both FT's.

I'm all for agressive play and intensity, but these guys need to tighten up!

This is a good ballgame.

So Jimmy Saris of Elmhurst hits the biggest shot of the game..........his first 3 point shot of the season

Hope without a FG since the 3:23 mark.

Sadly that is not something new in close games vs good team.  This sounds like another no execution in the final 5 kind of game.

70-71 Elmhurst with 15 seconds left, Marcus with one free throw upcoming

Elmhurst is not taking advantage of their opportunities either.
