Sorry about beating a dead horse, but we're better when we play man to man. It infuses energy in everyone out there and forces the guys to man up and play hard, rather than be passive in the zone. I'm OK with mixing in some 1-3-1 but we just play harder on both ends when we go man.
I would have given you 100 to 1 odds if you told me we'd have 5 guys in double figures tonight and two of them would not be Akec and Waterman. That's what makes it fun. You never know what to expect.

I agree 83. We played excellent man D against Cleveland and took the lead before faltering late. I saw it again tonight.

We were pulling away at the end not faltering.I think we started in zone then went man and back to zone to protect A couple guys with fouls as we were a little short handed inside.

If we play UM-Dearborn, does that make them our backup travel partner? Maybe we could play halfway between Calihan and Greenfield Rd. Would that be St Cecelia's? The Saint couldn’t hold the large crowd!

Good win, other guys stepped up when AD struggled to make shots. Willy had an excellent game, made some big shots to extend the lead.
Also heard on the PA to expect a home game early next week.

Heard that the Titans will likely play UM-Dearborn on Monday. Is UM-Dearborn going to enter the HL next year and take the place of the Flames. Then OU and UM-Dearborn can play for the Suburbs Cup. HL should be rescheduling these conference games instead of the HL playing DII schools. This is looking like another bad commissioner for the HL. The gym was hot and no concessions great day not to eat dinner and think your going to get some food at the game. At least we won free pizza. Good game to see the TEAM step it up in the second half. It was also nice to see the different lines ups in to see how guys played off of each other. The only thing was I didn't see Shaw in play? Does anyone know why that was. I like the energy this guy brings on the court. He looks like he is ready to explode to the rim at any time.

Heard that the Titans will likely play UM-Dearborn on Monday. Not a game for the dyslexic, UMD vs UDM. But our branding won't allow UDM to be mentioned officially. I hear that provision was inserted into the branding scheme specifically for a game versus this team.

About 200 fans here at game time. Presentation to Antoine commemorating his breaking the school record for career points scored. Official attendance was 1,795. Would be interesting to see how they come up with that number.

The radio feed had lots of crowd noise in the background, it sure sounded like a full house.

The game has been ruled as a "no contest"

Too bad. UIPUEEEIO at home is about as close as we could get to a Sure Win, except maybe UMDiou. But UIPUEEEIO would have counted in the Standings.

Just one more reason the league should--like the MAC and MWC--insisted on trying to get all games played--not just travel partners (which was obviously a half-hearted effort there, too). We lose Green Bay, Robert Morris, and IUPUI at home--the 10th, 11th, and 12th place teams. Our loss at Green Bay notwithstanding, those are, on paper, the three most winnable conference games on the schedule. And all 5 of our cancelled games are home games. (I haven't heard a peep from the league about adjusting "seeding" to account for that either, unlike last year).
