Where is the celebrating?

HUGE WIN!

Are we not celebrating WINS anymore?

Guess I will be CRITICIZED for CELEBRATING TOO EARLY!

Going on the road and beating the pre-season conference favorite. Statement victory.

Gave up a 14 pt lead in the 2nd half but kept their composure and managed to pull it out.

Keep piling up the Ws for tournament consideration. Next game is this Saturday at LaSalle.

The team passed the eye test long ago, but needed a Quad 1 win desperately. With limited chances it was a very important win.

A Quad 1 win on the road.

It doesn’t get better than that.

Team may not lose in conference play. seriously. We will see if Dayton or George Mason could win on their court, but this team has shown they will not let a lesser opponent get even close to competitive game. Seriously, don't see any chance of losing more than 2-4 losses with a real possibility of 0-2. Conference just isn't even competitive after the top 4 teams.
