Nice finish but wow, we had no business winning that game. Have to be a lot better to open halves. Nice game from Drumgoole.

Tough start but you have to like how the kids battled back and kept fighting. Don’t think we’ll be able to get away with that kind of start against UNCW. Always a tough place to play. Would love to steal one against the Seahawks.

Our Hens have shown that they can play well, although not always pretty, on the road. What we absolutely need to do is to learn how to protect our home court. Until we do that, we will be a mediocre team. We must figure out how to impose our version of the “ home team advantage “. Let’s go Hens!!

Asking the EXPERTS,

Since I know nothing about basketball as the EXPERTS have told me, Why on such a poor 3pt shooting night(6-22) when the EXPERTS have explained to me that, it is very high on the list of priorities this Team needs to improve in, could they win???

Please educate me and the Board?

Thank you
When it comes to Basketball, "I'm smarter than you and you know it"!! :twisted:

not one of the recognized experts, but Campbell is ranked 321. Might that be a factor snatching victory from the jaws of defeat? :lol:

edit- after manhandling my remote during our flo sports UD game last night, it appears that Charleston( poor overall stats yesterday) probably continues to be the favorite in the CAA. the usual suspects(D,H,UNCW,UD) stand a reasonable chance to rest the crown from C. The remaining teams probably not, but there were a lot of close games last night. No team appears a lock. Maybe not the best bball conference but games will be close among the top of the group.

No winners or losers here. I am not making an argument for any opinion but just pointing out statistical facts. You can make your own conclusions, innuendos, or implications as you have done.
But I am not saying that Delaware is a “ terrific 3-point shooting team”. If you don’t understand my information, so be it.

Hold opponents under 80 we have enough scoring to win.

Opponents go over 80 we most likely don’t.

Their are two ends to a basketball floor, and it was defense that got us back into last night’s game.
