remains that SB struggled at home against a team that is ranked
313 (I repeat, 313) out of 351 teams by kenpom and which lost
their top scorer during the game. That doesn't say good things
about Lowell but not-so-good things about the Seawolves at this
point. Can't sugarcoat that. That said, I still hope they can
beat Vermont and make it to the Tournament this year.

ry1nik, I hear your concerns and frustrations with SBB this year
and I'm bothered by some of the issues we are having this year
but, My point is. Lowell is not as bad as the Rankings are
saying, ( Kenpom )... Our problem last night was the 3 point
shooting and field goals. I can explain why that is the case. It
all has to do with jackson being out.. Coley did very well the
last 2 games but, last night he was way off. Had he shot well at
the perimeter we would have won by another 10 points making it
a 15 point win then no one would be complaining. Did we over
power them in the paint, yes we did. Walker was plowing his way
to the basket all night... Did we defend our paint and not let
them in most of the game, yes. Did Warney play his best game, no
actually, he did nothing in the first half!!!!!
Lowell non conference schedule was tough just like we had and
resulting in a low ranking percentage but now they are back in
conference playing, they are in par with the rest of the league
or slightly better. Look at their OOC schedule this year and see
for yourself who they lost against!!!

A win is a win. Don't be so selfish. The thought is on UMBC
today and Vermont on Tuesday

The River Hawks have enough talent to compete in the AE now.
They will win more games going forward for sure I wouldn't
surprised if they win 6 or 7 AE games by March especially
against teams like Maine and UNH and Binghamton. We were slow
to start last night and they kept pace all night. Give them
another year or two of good recruiting and they will be force.
