Great W, guys! Some ups and downs in this one, but a flurry at
the end does it.
Edit: almost spoke too soon

We played an aggressive, well coached 1st 12-14 minutes, and
then reverted to the launchpad playbook, really bad TO’s, and
missed FT’s, the rest of the way. If it was anyone but Maine, we
would have lost this game, imo.

SB struggled against arguably the worst team in the conference
and almost lost. Put a faulk in this season, it's over.. On to
football and some Lacrosse

MacKenzine and Olaniyi both look they're going to be good. I'd
like to see more of Garcia but I don't think you could take
minutes away from Saintel or UC and/or Cornish.

Really like Olaniyi, minus his Freshman mistakes, but he’ll
definitely be a good one. Jury still out on McKenzie for me, but
less turnover prone than Cornish. Cornish, who is definitely
athletic, plays way too out of control, and u can’t have your
point guard play that way. He’s got to tone it down a bit. I
hope Garcia is just rusty, because his shot and hands (receiving
passes) has been very unimpressive to date.

No chance, AV. Garcia isn’t ready for prime time, and Junior was
a monster defensively today. That is going to be a big part of
this team down the stretch. We ran away from Lowell when we
turned up the intensity defensively - on-the-ball pressure,
deflections, challenging shots, etc. Junior had three steals and
five blocks today. I wonder when that happened last at SBU.
Maybe some Warney game. Junior is fairly limited offensively,
but if he can fill a stat sheet with his energy, between steals,
blocks and offensive rebounds, fantastic. He’s the closest thing
we have to a shot blocker, and the shots he didn’t get he may
have challenged or at least got the opponent thinking about it.
He helped out on Calixte’s last drive and shot, which he
short-armed. Olaniyi has been tough defensively too. His
deflection made Calixte go get the ball past halfcourt and
attack our defense starting at 60 feet away.
I don’t get the complaints about the threes - at least not
today. You realize they were a big reason why we won, right? 7
for 16 in the first half, 4 for 13 in the second. I’ll take 11
makes every time. We won this game because we shut down Calixte
in the second half and some guys not named Yeboah hit some big
shots, including, lo and behold, some free throws.
