Look good so far

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Two traveling by Pardon

 

[freewillie07]

Five minutes in and Pardon has two turnovers, two missed field goals, a foul and a missed free throw.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Very nice ball distribution so far!

 

[TheC]

Sounds like we're dominating the boards

 

[TheC]

Crap, Falzone still out and likely to miss a couple more games at least which means I won't get to see him when the Cats come to Connecticut this weekend.

 

[ThatadultfromHolland]

Skelly has an alley oop dunk and a put back dunk so far.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Skelly playing better

 

[freewillie07]

Two fouls on Scottie at the under-12 timeout. Not ideal.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Ash will be first guy off the bench this year! We need his physical presence on defense \ looks good so far.

 

[lou v]

Skelly has an alley oop dunk and a put back dunk so far.

Very impressed with NU's defense so far -- though after the under 16 timeout, St. Peter's came out driving to the basket with subs Griffin and Jones and got a couple layups.

Interesting that Ash came in after the first TO.

Should also mention NU's 6 turnovers in the first 10 minutes. Sloppy.

And it's now 15-15, from 11-3.

 

[mekCat]

Interesting lineup, with Mac, Ash, and Brown on the floor at the same time.

 

[lou v]

NU went REALLY small there for a while, with Brown, Gaines, BMac, Ash and Pardon.

St. Peter's is getting to the rim with their guards, especially Griffin and Jones. NU has SEVEN turnovers with 7:44 left in the first half.

It's 17-15 Peacocks.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

We need more patience and better defense

Ash is sixth man in! Solid player!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Gaines needs to play more defense

 

[Hungry Jack]

Five minutes in and Pardon has two turnovers, two missed field goals, a foul and a missed free throw.

Polish hat trick!

 

[catcrazy]

This is really not acceptable play. If we struggle against these middling teams we are in deep trouble. When is falzon healthy?

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Three travel calls on pardon

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Skelly playing great under the rim!

 

[lou v]

Pardon is a turnover machine right now, with four turnovers in 13 minutes, including consecutive possessions.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Mac looks solid

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Pardon is a turnover machine right now, with four turnovers in 13 minutes, including consecutive possessions.

I hear ya! At least he is hitting his free throws

 

[lou v]

NU needs to find an answer for Cameron Jones. He came off the bench and ignited the offense with nine points in nine minutes.

 

[lou v]

I hear ya! At least he is hitting his free throws

Just got a rim-rattling dunk, too. Hopefully that sparks him.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Mac looks great! Gaines needs work on defense \where is Scotti?

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Is number 11? Gaines? Our starting five looks fantastic \except for pardon silly turnovers

 

[Windy City Cat Fan]

Up 7 at half - scary

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

We need to develop and play as a team

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Look good in second half

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Skelly looks great

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Mac looks sensational
