Let's hope Freidt has his legs. I think he wins the travel mileage award.

Pirates on fire both sides of the court.  Was 8-7 Marietta now 28-12 Whitworth.  Whitworth is playing with a confidence I haven't seen ALL year.  Look out!!

Let's hope they all have a good game...would be cool for his Dad to see them win, coming all the way from Germany and seeing Felix play in person for the first time.

Whitworth up 29-12. Marietta getting flustered and throwing up TERRIBLE shots. Whitworth having an easy time getting into the interior of Marrietta D. They are gonna have to settle down and run their half court sets if they don't want this to get even uglier.

Listened to the guys doing the video feed for a minute...Taylor drains a 3, announcer "Are these guys for real?"

Pirates shooting over 80% at the time, I'd be a little stunned too.

The color guy keeps saying "Here we go" when Marietta does something good.  I don't think this Scot fan wants to see Pirates tomorrow.  ;) ;D

These guys are doing a good job.  And apparently Jack Loofburrow is Tyler Fitzpatrick and the Pirates are the Pioneers.

Marietta clawing back in it.  Pirates missing shots.  Clay Gebbers to the line shooting 3.  Miss, make and miss  36-22.

Marietta did settle down, got to the basket and got to the FT line because of it.

Whitworth is better, but they'll have to play another solid 20 minutes. Marietta showed they could care less who they are playing, got rid of the jitters and started playing better offensively.

They need to stop Whitworth guards from penetrating or they will never get this game to within 5-6 points.

Oh, and big congrats to Mike Taylor. First Team All American.

Marietta is a good team and has it close enough to get back in it.  Now if Whitworth comes out and scores the first 3 buckets...OxyBob would say "Game over".   ;)

That didn't happen.

Officials tag Freidt with 2 fouls quick.  Ouch!!  He has 4 now.

These refs are gonna keep it close.  Calling everything on both teams.  This favors Marietta obviously.

Marietta is in the bonus with 13 minutes left in the half??

Looks like refs trying to even things out a little, call two quick ones on Halter.

Where's oldchap to complain about the calls when you need him?

Whitworth is going to have to shoot well from the FT line. Marietta still can't stop them from getting to the hoop but they are making them ear buckets from the stripe.

73-60
