[quote="sjc88" post=377494]Hey we have a shot. The effort is there. Tough way to end the half though.[/quote]

Yeah, I hated giving up that basket before the half. Nevertheless, it's definitely still a ball game.
 
Now we’re down 2 at the half. Our lack of size is makes a play like that disheartening.
 
Rutherford and penny were outstanding that half.

I question why earlington was pulled after making 2 free throws. He should have finished out the half. Cannot have caraher out there.
 
Figgy 1/7, can’t expect another half like that from Rutherford & LJ has to get untracked.
 
I think this game is really showing how good a coach Mr. Anderson is. We got hit hard right from the opening tip, the guys couldn’t throw it in the ocean, and we’re right there at half. Tenacious! How do you think the last few coaching staffs would be doing with this group?

We battled them well on the boards that half. Actually have one more offensive rebound. If we can keep that up plus the tough defense and Figgy gets hot I really like our chances. Also good that Figgy, Rutherford and Dunn played whole half w/o fouling and Champ only has 1.
 
2/18 collectively for Dunn, Marcellus & LJ. Something has to give there.
 
Johnnies only down by 2. Xavier looked gassed towards the end of the half.

Got to keep pressing and make Xavier run. Wear them out and it'll give the Johnnie's an advantage at the end.

Very pleased with Rutherford and Champagnie. They've been stepping up.

Dude carried the ball twice, as I called it before Spanarkel, before he missed the layup.
