Whole new team against a good st peters team who had game experience. it could have been worse turnovers and free throws are correctable errors. Sayles Policelli looked good they need to be on the court 30 plus minutes. But this team is gonna need Mo Gueye to play better
Good post, P5. Welcome aboard.
It was bleak midway through the second half – 70-47 is the score that sticks out to me. SPU was on pace to put up 90 on us. At that point, we saw Rodriguez assert himself a little more – too much on a couple occasions as he pushed off. Maybe my favorite part of the night was his ability to break down his defender, get into the paint and do something good with it. Not a ton of assists but he was in position for them.
I don't know that Sayles is a 15-point guy for us but it was a welcome addition.
ESPN had TSM not playing, but the SBU box shows him playing five minutes. I missed that. If that's correct, that's very curious usage for me. I wonder what's up.
For you no-threes people, the 21 we shot tonight is below 25 a night from a year ago. I'm good with either number.
If we don't beat Fairfield on Friday, the probability of going into conference play at 0-5 is very high. Of course, all these non-con games are to get us ready for the ones that matter.
