Man, his end of half & end of game strategy is the stuff 8th. grade coaches go to clinics for.
Talk about just throwing away winnable games.
This is getting pretty old.

By the way...
Over in the NESCAC, unranked Wesleyan absolutely crushed #12 Williams in Williamstown.
That is something the Royals have rarely, if ever, done on his watch...go into a highly ranked teams gym and come out with a convincing win.

Williams was missing three starters and two key reserves tonight.

Wasn't aware of that.
So...how is that perceived by the NCAA committee?
Big win regardless for Wesleyan since everyone has played short-handed at some point this year or, don't look too deep into this loss, it may have been a fluke?
Personally, I turned away from the Scranton game several times last night & watched this game & I came away pretty darn impressed with Wesleyan.
Not sure they've had such a complete game before or are capable of more of these types of games going forward but they have some very, very talented kids.

NEPAFAN

To come out flat at Juniata and lose is one thing, to do it a week later at home and have this performance is another thing.

I didn't watch the first half, but why are you shooting with 10 seconds left to allow Juniata to come down and bang a three? (Note the margin of victory was three)

If I had the time or inclination I would list all the in conference clunkers Scranton has had. Is this just a lack of preperation?

I don't think the committee can really take that into account, to be honest. In this case, they split two games and may meet again.

So what team shows up tonight?Also this will be the 5th straight year No Ncaa tournament(if they don't win the Landmark)I just don't see them going on the road and winning it!I think this will be the longest drought in UofS mens basketball history since Bessior was named Coach!(Ronk,Saratoga,Nepafan) is that right?Also is Martin finally hearing chirping in his ear?Just saying -not good in Royalville these days!!!

Right we have seen this before, they'll beat Drew, Catholic, and Susquehanna and then lose at Elizabethtown.

Don't fret, at least we aren't Goucher ! ;)

Agreed! They are in the Old Dominion Athletic Conference in Region 6 if you want to address this to them.

Strange you bring this up. I was thinking a few weeks back how this would be the 5th straight year left out of NCAA Tournament. I went back through the archives, and this would pass the mark where the tournament was missed after the 92-93 NCAA squad until returning in 97-98.

You'll have to check the starting lineup tonight; if it's effort, defensive rebounding, getting the ball into the post, quality shot selection, and strategy, then they can win by double figures as they did with Susque earlier in the season. Otherwise,
making the conference playoffs will be in jeopardy.
