MBB: Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference

[from downtown]

Murphy getting poked in the eye.

MSOE battles from 19 down in the second half to surprise Maryville (Mo.). MSOE led for by 5 early before Maryville came back to take a 4 point led into the break. MSOE came out flat and Maryville shot the lights out and received little resistance as they attacked the basket through the lane. MSOE dribbled into Maryvilles full court press traps and made too many turnovers. With the big lead Maryville tried slowing things down and MSOE took advantage. A couple of big stops down the strech and MSOE made there free throws to complete te come back.

Thanks for the info! What kind of style of play does Edgewood have?  Puget Sound is real run and gun fast tempo

Yep, that's what Edgewood does too. You should see Avercamp run the fastbreak. It's like Showtime only with a white guy.

Sweet! That should be a fun game then, lots of points...hope I can listen to it!

Is it still considered a fastbreak if everyone gets back before Charlie gets to the half court marks  sorry Charlie

[WLCALUM83]

When Edgewood beat WLC last year in Madison, the final score was in the 90's, so unless Puget Sound runs like Grinnell (Iowa), this poster doesn't expect the Eagle squad to be totally surprised.

[LogShow]

No Puget Sound isn't like Grinnell, but they do get up and down the court.  They are pretty aggressive and pressure a lot on D.  Most teams don't try to run with them choosing to instead slow it down.  I don't really think that Puget Sound's hopes to "suprise" anyone...more to wear them out, because they have lots of depth.

Log Show,

Libero was pulling your leg.  You'll understand when you see Averkamp who looks a little more like a linebacker than a basketball player.

Edgewood runs when the opportunity presents itself, but they are certainly not a "running" team.  They play the Swing offense (Head Coach Todd Adrian is a branch off the Bo Ryan coaching tree) which relies on half court movement, lots of screens and unselfish passing.  They rarely press full court, instead setting up a tough half court D.

It should be an interesting contrast in styles with Puget Sound.

[libero]

Sorry, sarcasm does not tranlate well on "posting up". I hope the game goes well for Edgewood.

I am headed over to watch the UC Santa Cruz vs. Dominican game this evening. What can you tell me about the Stars.

[Just Bill]

Re: Dominican

Very athletic team that most people thought would be doing better than they are.  They have an inside force in Haiduc, but probably don't take advantage of him as much as they should.

They can put on stunning streaks of scoring, putting up 10-12 points in quick succession, but they can also have frustrating droughts, and those are usually what have done them in this year.
