Just a guess, but I picked 9. He has only had double digit FT attempts in 5 games (24,12,10,10,10).  That said, he's bound to get his share of attempts.  He's a very skilled player, has the ball in his hands constantly, and is on the court for basically 40 minutes.

I would say 8.  I think that Valpo will play good defense and will be leading coming down the stretch.  Both of these will keep his free throws in single digits.

Divided by 2.

Then subtract 5.

Then subtract two more.

A big part of this game is how many free throws will Oakland shoot as a team and how many fouls will Valpo be called for as a team. Two guys that have not had as much foul trouble lately are Peters and Tavonn, although Alec has had early foul trouble in early season games. If the foul calls stay fairly even or in Valpo's favor Valpo wins this game.

Another key is how many times will Vashil get fouled and how many of his free throws will he make.

His first two Ft's came from a big flop.  There was another flop when he attempted to take a charge from one of the Walkers.  The spill he had at half court with E. Victor should have been a foul on him.  The next possession, E.Victor took the charge from him and justice was served. 

K. Felder is really good and only a sophomore.  He might win POY this year.  If not him, who?

It's like I said after we played at Oakland, that Felder INITIATED unnecessary contact all game, and was rewarded with BS calls.  No such luck at Valpo, where he tried the same crap, and was 1 for 2 in getting it called in his favor.  He is a good player, but that referee crew at Oakland was manipulated into calling many fouls that should have been offensive.  If you extend your arm to push the defender off a few feet, it is supposed to be an offensive foul.

I don't know about you guys, but I think I found my POY.

What I like about Alec is his shot selection. If the chances aren't there he doesn't take them. If he wants to he can chuck up 10-15 shots a game and aver about 20, similar to Juwan Howard. Instead he plays smart knows that teams will guard him heavily which gives our offense easier looks at the basket. He had 11 points on only 4 shots, and 1 3, he had 9 rebounds and does everything at a high-level.

I agree that he should be POY but it'll go to Sykes because the voting committee seems to have green colored goggles on. Alec will just get HL tourney MVP to make up for it.
