HC loses to BC, everyone else wins
Good set of games yesterday. Colgate and LC both won in sqeekers, Colgate with some good post play and LC with defense. LC got the threes they needed.
AU
finally got a win, over a 3-1 Radford team with a kid named Whit Holcombe-Faye who is very good. Listening to the Radford broadcast, they seemed confident of an easy win, but then the Eagles started shooting.
At one point, AU was 8-9 from behind the arc, and shooting something around 86%. Quotes from the RU broadcast:
"You just don't know how to describe this to the folks at home"
"This is the perfect half of basketball"
"I've never seen something like this"
"Usually you see one guy get hot, but this entire team can't miss"
AU is certainly not going to shoot 80% the whole season, but when this team is on, they're on.
Army got a win over SUNY-Maritime. Whatever SUNY-Maritime is, I can't tell you. So I'm going to pretend they are an underwater school for sea creatures and congratulate the Black Knights for beating Aquaman and his friends.
HC lost to Boston College.
Here's a link to the AP story. BC is just too damn big for them, or anyone else in the league to handle. That said, here's a funny picture:
