One of the keys to our victory tonight( along with dynamite offensive performances by our guards) will be to keep the 5' 9" Niagara high scorer and presumptive MAAC Rookie of the year Ahmad Henderson under control and limited to more than 10 to 14 points. When we lost to Niagara last month he was killing us with drives to the hoop and his outside shooting( I believe he scored 25 points in that game). Can Jasper do a defensive number on him?

Coach Casey knows he is allowed to use his time outs correct? We can get just as hot but need to stop Niagara’s momentum. Playing too fast and reckless right now. Let’s take a breath and make our own run.
