All of a sudden, this would be a gigantic win. After nine- and
10-win seasons, Hartford appears to have turned things around,
and we're in desperate need of doing the same thing after two
highly uninspiring performances.
Hartford has ripped off three in a row, and five of their last
six. The last three have all come on the road against FIU,
Rutgers and Albany – a real nice stretch by any standard. By
holding serve at home, they will equal last year's win total by
the first week of January.
It's been a one-sided series of late, with SBU winning the last
10 games dating back to 2013. This may be the group that ends
the drought for Hartford – they're experienced, they have a
solid inside presence, shooters and guys who can get to the
goal.
However, they, like us, will often live and die with the three.
Nearly 45 percent of their attempts come from three – even more
than us. Can they sustain success with that kind of ratio,
particularly shooting at just 33.5% as a team? With the peaks
and valleys that come with the perimeter shot, that will be
tough to do. They're 3-0 when they shoot fewer than 20 threes.
You guessed it – the last three games, all wins.
Carroll, Dunne, Lynch and Attia are all holdovers from last
year, but Weatherington has come over from Palm Beach CC and
really made a difference, particularly of late. He's gone for
double figures in five of the last six contests, including a
season-high 22 in their win over Quinnipiac a few weeks back.
Most of the damage has come from beyond the arc.

Hartford always lived or died by the 3 ball . We don't defend
the 3 very very well so if they get hot they sink us in this
game. We have to get inside drive to the basket and sink high
percentage shots. We don't need 6'7 forwards shooting from
downtown and letting rebounds go the other way .

I'll take those points all day, Hammer.
Rare AE lines today. Bingo was -11 against Maine and lost.
Albany -3 at UNH and lost.

Interesting that Cornish had two early turnovers and got the
hook. Back in now.
17-0 SBU on bench points.

Definitely something going with Cornish. Bad turnover early in
the second and immediately yanked in favor of Almonacy.
Saintel has been all over the place. Third foul sent him to the
bench.

Yep. 14-0 run I think. Hartford went to the 1-3-1 and we have
been clueless against it. They also went big and we are doing
nothing on the glass.
