Have to be happy I guess with poor shooting, our leading scorer held scoreless, and still only down 2 at the break. Defense was mostly good.
But Marist doing a lot defensively of what they did well in their last game against us. Very aggressive on the perimeter and forcing a lot of iso. If I recall we had few assists in Poughkeepsie. Have to move the basketball to break down this defense.

I understand what CC is doing by keeping Yetna in…Max Allen is tough to guard…but the reality is his feet are in quick sand and can’t grab any rebounds. Time to sub in Smith and Seck.
Man this team is gritty. They have a way of winning these tight games and don’t quit when they are down. We’ve won two games with our B game at best. It’d be nice to have our A game tomorrow to seal the deal.
Even watching these games is draining! Fields put the team on his back, and Leach found other ways to score with his outside shot AWOL. But the most impressive feature of the last two games was sensational defense in the last 5 minutes.
I didn't think this team could win in the tourney unless they were hitting 3's. They have proved me wrong.
