Delaware vs George Washington

Post by UDHoops »

Third place game. A slow start yesterday was too big of a hole to dig out of. Today is still a good test how we can adjust. Would be our best win of the season if we can get it done today

Hens favored by 1.5

A couple observations so far this season.

The starting lineup of Davis, Ray, Lane, Reilly and Trent is lacking in outside shooting. Other than Reilly, nobody is a true threat. Lane and Trent need to stop shooting from 3.

When we get Bethea back, it adds another shooter.

Houser is very efficient on offense but has limitations on D

The defense was lacking yesterday.

With that said, UNCG is a pretty good team. They did beat #14 Arkansas

MI has to start winning these kinds of games. Other than maybe Princeton last year, do we have any really good non conference wins during his tenure? Even Monte beat Virginia to get to the pre-season NIT semi-finals at MSG. And Brey beat both Alabama and Florida back in the day, although they were admittedly both down the years we beat them. But seriously, we need to start winning games against teams like UNCG. Hoping we can give Xavier a real test next week.

MI calls a timeout (much needed) as our offense has missed our last 12 attempts. Doubling Davis and Trent, Drumgoole throwing up 3s. Luckily GW way off as well. Up 29-19 under 4 to go in the 1st

Reilly with 2 triples and a steal, Lane with a nice pass to Ray gets some offense to finish the half. Up 38-25. 20 more minutes to close out a 2-1 trip in the Bahamas

Meltdown is right. Gave up 56 points in the second half. Fin is right, no reason why this program can’t beat the UNCG’s of the world, or even be a UNCG. Pretty disappointing last two days to me.
