This is going to be a tough year- Boals is trying to find his
rotation right now. UC Iroegbu has taken some ugly shots and
doesn't look like a good jumpshooter. Rebounding looks good but
we have no post players that can even sniff what Warney did. We
were really spoiled by him. At some point, we ought to see
Campbell.

Lions up 5 with 4 minutes left. SBU got a few stops. Sturdivant
being agressive in the post. Yoo quick for the Columbia front
line. Wolves with 18 offensive rebounds which is keeping them in
the game.

Columbia wins by 7. Crazy 3 pointer at the shot clock buzzer
seals it. SBU has work to do. There are some things to build on.

I actually think SB played better then I thought they would..
Woodhouse and Mitchel stunk it up
Petras, well is Petras
The rest of the team I thought was ok. I'm not sure why Boles
didnt use Sekunda more then he did.
Not much more to say except I am sticking with my 8 wins this
season.

I watched a decent amount of the game. Here are my thoughts:
1. I guess the coaches have no faith in Alonzo Campbell- Petrus
is just a big body, gives 110% but doesn't have much skill. On a
good team he wouldn't see significant time.
2. UC Iroegbu really was just chucking bricks in the first half-
I hope this was just a bad game for him.
3. Kam Mitchell also was fine seeing spot time last year- he's
not a DI level starter
Now the good:
1. Akwasi Yeboah looks like the real deal- he's aggressive and
strong. Not a bad job for his first game.
2. Junior Saintel has good size but he needs to be a LOT more
aggressive.
3. Sturdivant played hard, he's made big strides. Nyama
similarly played well.
Overall, I'm sticking with my preseason expectations. Vermont
will be the class of this league. Albany and New Hampshire will
fight for second. The rest of the league is not that far apart.
I can't believe how big of a rebuild we are seeing this year.
Boals needs to find a rotation that works. The only people that
should get guaranteed time are Sturdivant, Nyama and Woodhouse
at present. Yeboah showed some skill and aggressiveness and is
close. Sekunda still needs to get his feet under him but his
best role would be 3 point shots off the bench. Iroegbu needs to
improve a lot. Almonacy played tentatively and I want him to
play with a bit more of an edge.

Albany beat Penn State . I think UA and Vermont battle it out in
the Championship this year. SB will finish in 6th place

That about covers it for now, Wolfie MD. Well stated.
I think it'll be a rough ride this year. A lot of work to do
with perhaps, at best, a shot at 4th in the AE (along with a big
crowd of other teams).
Very poor shooting from SBU. Difficult to tell if it was just
maybe one of those nights, or not. Imagine the same game and
they shoot 50% from the floor and at least 65% FTs...maybe they
win handily and we're saying not such a down year after all?

I actually have higher hopes than most. Also, Stony Brook
played worst the last season two season at home against
Columbia!
