Too bad CNU got on the bus w/44 seconds to go...one of the biggest choke jobs in recent memory.

That is why you play 40 minutes not 39 minutes

How did they choke?

Up 6 w/44 seconds to go and the ball...CNU proceeds to turn the ball over twice, miss two free throws and give up three consecutive layups, one of those being a plus one...that equates to a choke.

Beside needing another big that can play & not just take up space, their guards didn't help out at all down the stretch by not boxing out & letting Susquehanna's guards crash the boards for extra possession after extra possession.

I think we've all seen this show before.

 This is why you have to win them games at home.Still have to go to Catholic,Drew and Goucher yikes.

Yes, there were 3 offensive rebounds by Susquehanna in a 4 1/2 min period near the end of regulation that contributed to the outcome. In addition, the 3rd foul by our post player 25 feet from the basket in the 1st half had him sitting out for 1/2 the game; didn't see his 4th while switching back-and-forth with the women's game, so can't talk about that.
  This sweep by Susquehanna may be a tie-breaking factor for making the postseason playoffs but Catholic beat E-town tonight to lessen the effect if the Royals can take care of business @ Catholic Saturday..

Im with Nepafan you have to win your league games especially at home.I know we lost only one at home but I agree with ronk that might hurt us at the end.Catholic will not be easy,Drew will be a nightmare with Jersey refs that they just picked up at the 7 eleven and Goucher always plays us tough at there place.Plus Moravian we still have to play.Would be nice to win outright !!!

Was hoping for a top 2 finish, will settle for a playoff berth.

Ok, after starting off 12-0 & thinking this team was the greatest group since Bob Bessoir's last tuxedo fitting, what are the real chances of this squad  not only making the Landmark playoffs but actually getting into the NCAA tournament?


Personally, I think they may find themselves in the Landmark, but nothing beyond that.

Guards don't defend, very little bench support, post rarely can get more than 23 minutes without serious foul trouble & a track record that we are all well aware of.

This is a three man team...DeVerna, Mancuso & Bailey...beyond that, not much real help.

When all is said & done, we've been here before.

Geez  we off the bandwagon that quick?

 I did call them the most entertaining team since the '90s, not the most accomplished, and did note their shortcomings(ballhandler, weak defensive rebounding, judgment, temperament, etc); they remain entertaining and hopefully, will improve on their shortcomings.
