It's not often when we get a reasonably good shot, and when we do, we miss. We do get offensive rebounds, but we miss the layups and free throws, so they don't do us much good.
And our defense isn't very good. Niagara is getting wide open 3's and layups.
I think we have to look at Niagara and see how they have players that drive to the hoop and score. We are also getting beat on on a lot of fast-breaks.
Our defense is not good...... that is a surprise. I expect that to change in the 2nd half. Even with all that, we are only 15 down...... another miraculous comeback??

I sure hope so Joe, but Niagara is scoring with ease and we work like dogs to just get a terrible shot.
It's going to take a lot of work to fix both of those problems. Opponents know the only player that can really kill them is Taliaferro, so they simply blanket him and don't allow him to get any easy shots.
Our offense has really regressed in last month. Seems like that has affected our defense also. Hard to keep playing hard defense when you can’t score.

I think that Jeanne-Rose can score .......but he must stay near the hoop.
What an incredible, improbable win! Coming back from 17 was quite a feat; coming back from 5 down with a little over a minute left was even more impressive.
Landon and Taj should have gotten an extra 1/2 point each for the degree of difficulty on those huge makes!
The most important number may be the 22 points the Stags held Niagara to in the second half.
