Couldn't get a ticket to the Curry-LeBron show, Huh?

Why is the reffing always abysmal while playing at YSU? An offensive three second call?

and yes, Nolan just updated the RPI to 24 after playing that team.

Was leading a church council meeting.  Looks like things went alright.   :)

I missed the fact that the game started at 6 and not 7 so missed Alec Peters completely!  Wow!  Inspite of the lengthy garbage time we win by 31 on the road.  That has got to get some attention.  The rebounding margins are world class.  Alec had 18 points in 14 minutes.  Just Wow...

Is Alec alright? I don't remember him playing after coming out from getting wacked in the head. Hope no concussion.

So, anyone think Kampe would have pulled Felder as early in similar circumstances or would the circumstances never be considered similar because they lack our depth?

Was wondering this also. We took him out after the elbow to his head, and we didn't see him the rest of the game. Hoping it was just precautionary, since we were up 20+ at the time. He looked just fine and animated on the bench.

Speaking of the bench, it was nice that the starters were so into the game after taken out. The bench has been supportive all year, despite some of the players having their minutes cut considerably over the past couple years.

It was also nice seeing Davidson play center and hilariously calling for entry passes into the post. Guy is a gamer.

and the flight coming back....

probably not leaving at 9-central time...but for those into this type of thing you can track it...(it's like Santa's sleigh)

Still no box score posted. Way too many players and all the scoring and tallying! It would be up by now if Peters had just played 40 minutes.

valpo64

Another dominating performance...8 guys had more minutes than Alec who had 14!  Maybe the guy who predicted that we would win the league by 7 games will be correct!   Another blown game by that coaching genius Ray McC as Detroit loses at WSU.  That Detroit situation is really bad as you can read it on the faces of the players at every time out.  I wonder how long the coach will survive.

Nice to see D. Walker find his 3 point stroke about the time T. Walker seems to be struggling a bit from 3.  E Vic seems to still be a step slower guarding quicker guards than he was last year. Hope he gets that back as the season goes on and he gets back into playing shape.  The depth and unselfish play of this team is amazing.  Nice performance.

His 4 of 5 shooting raises his 3 point average to 33.9%. That gives me some hope that I might still get one of the "over-under" questions answered correctly. I took him for over 38% and that was looking really stupid until just recently.  :thumbsup:

Yes, Darien has been steadily improving over the last few conference games.  His release point is back to where it was last year.  He was releasing the ball too late as he came down, which led to some abysmal looking shots off the backboard and well short of the rim.  He looks a lot more smooth when he is shooting, so maybe he figured out that he was holding onto it too long.  This is a great sign heading into the halfway point of conference.

Did anyone catch the post-game?  I was hoping we'd get an update on Alec from Todd + Luke.  I just watched the replay.  That was... something!

QuoteThe only scare for the Crusaders came early in the second half when Peters took an elbow to the head while grabbing an offensive rebound. The all-league junior forward left the game and didn't return for precautionary reasons as the outcome was already decided.

"Alec wanted to go back in, but we just didn't want to take any chances," Drew said.

Hopefully it's nothing - no reason it should be.

Heck, wasn't _Max Joseph_ playing center for a while?

Lineup of D. Walker, E Vic, Shane, Max Joseph, Lexus Williams.  With E Vic bringing the ball down the court.

Youngstown... didn't rebound very hard.  And we, as usual, often had four guys rebounding.

Rebounding margin? 51-20.  +31.  Could it be a Valpo record?

On our misses, they rebounded 16 of them.  We rebounded 21.

Not sure anybody keeps track of single game records like that...

The Horizon League does keep a _fairly_ extensive record book.

Season average record scoring margin in league games? 13.2.  Butler 2009-10.  We'll see...

Season average record rebounding margin in league games?  +11.1, a Loyola team in the 80's.  So far we're at +18.  _Average_.  Over six league games.
