I get the impression that the camera operator is also the score and clock operator for the TV broadcast.

You're probably right. 

Now with the three point line being moved out I think there's going to be a lot of sideline out of bounds calls.

Might even be the play by play guy for all we know.

What has happened to Valpo's defense.

Correction, sideline OB

Freeman appears to be shooting very well and McMillan is playing very well.  They are hitting a butt load of 3's and appear to have practiced for a long time as their ball movement is very good.

I don't expect our offense to look great right now. But I counted 10 open threes in the second quarter. Yikes.

McMillan playing like a beast and no fouls. Holding my breath that he continues like this for the season.

I see no Fazekas as someone else mentioned, could be precautionary seeing as he gets injured with regularity.  No real offense to speak of, but that is expected because McGill is just shooting 3s as well (theirs are going in more).  Either way, I'd like to see the defense ratchet up as you mention because defense is the only phase of the game that travels well.  It would be laughable to expect last years defense to show up this year, we pretty much received a whole new team from the inside out.

Either way, I am glad to see this team get game experience this summer and hoping the camera man figures things out in the 2nd half!

Fun to see all of the new looks and characters.  Less fun to see the rawness of their form.  Looking forward to seeing Gordon and Robinson get the rust off.  Like Clay's energy.  Positive feelings about Mr Freese.  Lorange seems pretty fearless.

Most I've ever seen he go after the Refs.

If you can understand what he is saying, this play-by-play guy is kinda entertaining. It's like a car crash. You can't look away because of what amazing/awful thing is gonna happen next...

Now if we could only learn not to stand out of bounds when the ball is passed to us.

That floor looked junior high size.

It was a team photo then a circular team photo then Coach Lottich was giving both teams a talk. I wonder what the guy will say when he realizes it was a prayer lead by Valpo's coach.

Only got to see bits and pieces of the 2nd half.  Saw a series of nice plays from Gordon.  Nice poise to not give up and to regain and keep the lead for a team so new to each other.  Not a whole lot to takeaway except to worry anew about Fazekas.  Nice to see a Valpo Victory in August!  Cheers!

Wasn't that the first technical foul that Lottich has received at Valpo as a coach?

At long last, a Lottich technical foul! I hope this foreshadows a more forceful attitude toward refs in conference play this year.  :clap: :clap: :clap:

The player that impressed me the most was Donovan Clay. Looks like we got ourselves a good one. McMillan also looked really good to start out, then went and made 6 fouls. If he could only get that under control.

More team speed, better 3-point shooting, quick post moves, some pressure defense, athleticism, teamwork. Very encouraged!

I broke down in the field with no tools so missed all but the last quarter. You just don't realize what a curse work is until it eats into your basketball time!  :(

But-----What little I saw looks to be interesting!

Good to see a win and balanced scoring. On to the next game!

The full court pressure in the 3rd quarter really turned the tide.  I hope we see the press consistently once the real games start in November.
