pretty much the biggest CC game of the year tonight in Calisle.  Should be a good one

Some frustrating feed coming out of the Red Devil Sports Network.  Commercials running during active play, many pop up ads...Is it possible to go to full screen with the image?  I have it in theater mode, so the window fills the screen, but not the actual image.

I can get it mostly full screen. If you just click the two arrows in the right bottom corner. The commercial are a great feature of Ustream.... It's not an F&M HD broadcast for sure.

and I guess Dickinson's broadcasters are never going to get Gyokchyan....

"It's not an F&M HD broadcast for sure."


No kidding.  Can the camera go higher so we can see the game and not the back of the heads of the fans?

Where's Early?????

I thought the back of heads was a great shot!!!   NOT!

I don't know about Early, but we needed him...

Reserved Seat

With Early on crutches and wearing a walking boot and Hayk  and Salandra in foul trouble, F&M had few options for having any height in the game.
Salandra and Gyokchyan appeared to be obviously frustrated with some of the questionable call.  F&M only had 11 players suited including Rogo making his first appearance since before Christmas.  Honig dominated the first half with his outstanding guard play and shooting.  Wixted looked under the weather but he still managed to get 17 points mostly from the foul line.  Assists and rebounds for equal for both teams.  Dickinson outscored F&M by 9 points from the foul line.  Both teams struggled from three points land.  Brewer lead F&M's scoring.

Tough loss in collegeville last night.  Wasnt able to tune into the game at all but from reading the story about it giving up a 16 point lead at home in a very important game has got to be tough to take.  Some things that catch your attention from the box score are the 3 point attempts and FT's.  Seems like 26 three point attempts for a team shooting under 30% from there for the season is probably too much and might explain why the bears were not getting to the FT line as much as the mules, but again, I didnt see the game...Not too familiar with the entire Muhlenberg team so Bovino's stat line really jumps out to you with the dbl dbl and 17 rebounds.  Bottom line is that you have to find a way to win that game at home in late January...makes Saturday almost a must win for them at this point

Hoop guru,

It was a tough loss. Bears led by 16 in the first half, 4 at half and back to 11 in the 3rd quarter.
Mules never led until about 5 plus minutes to go.  Keys were defensive breakdowns in the second qtr-----16 point lead reduced to 4 at the break---poor rebounding by the Bears throughout----and very poor shot selection in the second half forcing too many threes.

Give Muhlenberg credit, they were physical and very aggressive.  Key for them was playing zone most of the game---Hargrove was in foul trouble---they packed it in negating Ward and Janowski in the second half and of course monster games by Bovino and Killing. Killing made the winning shot while falling down backwards.  They won the game at the line.  We really could have used Kamara and Harry for their defense and rebounding.

Gabriel and Hoop Guru, coming down and throwing up 26 three point attempts, many without even a single pass offensively first will not produce a win against any team in this conference. Ward had only 7 shots again. Not because he was limited to it either. Foul trouble in the first half again, 3rd foul called in that half with 8 or 9 minutes left was a phantom call by the ref, Ward 3 feet away from play and was actually on Adams. If they are to make a push for the playoffs they need to play the inside out game with Janowski and Ward.
If they continue to not get the bigs touches they will continue to flounder.

a couple of things i have noticed about ursinus...
a good, athletic guard seems to do extremely well against them, not just this year but for the past several years. killing did whatever he wanted and penetrated at will. he got to the line 14 times.
secondly, the bigs need to play more physically. they need to fight harder to get into position with a good passing angle and i believe then krasna would get them the ball. he has a pretty decent basketball IQ and i am sure knows that a layup is always the first priority.i have seen the hand go up alot with their bigs but often they haven't established great position, (it is more momentary), so it is left to Draper to score or Krasna to try and be creative. many bigs in the conference do not possess strong post moves and are not that comfortable playing with their backs to the basket. they face up pretty quickly and don't usually back guys down. from what i have seen, ursinus is part of that trend and does not command the paint with physical play. their bigs play more of a finesse game, which makes getting the ball down low that much more difficult.

Wow!   21 fouls for F & M today compared to 10 for Haverford.    18 of Haverford's points came from the free throw line..... 

Reserved Seat

Despite playing a full-court press, Haverford was only whistled for 10 fouls; whereas, F&M was whistled for 21 fouls.  The officiating was very one sided.  F&M shot 2-3 from the foul line-Haverford 18-27. 
Haverford out-hustled F&M and equaled them with 36 rebounds.  F&M did a poor job of rebounding after foul shots.  Haverford corralled numerous missed foul shot giving them another opportunity at the basketball.
With 4 minutes to go, F&M took there first lead at 42-41, but failed to score from that point on. 
Cam Baker had a terrific shooting night hitting several well contested shots.
F&M will need to find a new identity now that Early is officially lost for the season.

Nooo!  Early is lost for the season!  How about Figeuroa?
