Men's Basketball 22-23

[Mr. Niss]

I wish I understood what Ragland is doing most of the time.

[Mr. Niss]

WHAT.  A.  COMEBACK!!!!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Outscored Delaware 20-2 after being down by 11 with about five minutes left.  Amazing.

WHAT.  A.  COMEBACK!!!!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uh, yep!

Cornell closes on a 12-0 run to beat Delaware 74-67!  This after the chickens had an 18-3 run late to seemingly put the game away.  A lot of credit to the guys for fighting back on the road.

With 4:26 left, Delaware led 65-54.  Greg Dolan was very clutch as he scored 11 of team high 15 in that final 4:26.  20 team assists to 10 team turnovers and 10 team steals.

The last time I looked at Ken Pom before the game, Delaware was about 20 spots ahead of us.  His prediction had us losing by 4.  

They're now 191 and we're 180.

Six spots ahead of Louisville.

Now that's balanced scoring.

Now that's balanced scoring.

It's the depth of this team that sets it apart from most college programs. No reason we shouldn't be in the running for a top-4 league finish.

For the season, Dolan is averaging 13.4 points a game to lead the team.  The rest of the eight man rotation averages between 10.7 (Williams) and 8.1 (Ragland and Watson).  Defenses have to worry about everyone on the floor equally.

[mountainred]

41-41 at the half versus a mediocre Lafayette team.  The Leopards hit 8 of 13 three pointers, including a banked in thirty-footer to end the half, and all seven of their foul shots.

[dbilmes]

Down by 8 late in second half. May need another big closing run to pull this one out. If we do, it would match our longest win streak since the season we went to Sweet 16 (2009-10).

And they get it!  Good guys escape with a 73-68 win.

Lafayette completes a three point play with 4:08 to go, and never score again.  Great defense down the stretch by the Big Red to close on an 11-0 run.

Manon, Dolan, and Williams with a game high 12 points. And credit to Filien for some big time rebounds late and then hitting the final two FTs to largely ice the game.

Cornell-Miami is on NESN+ tonight at 7, for those who have that channel.

Had to stop and think, Cradle of Coaches Miami of Ohio Redhawks, or Lost Instutional Control of Hurricanes Football 1990s? It's Hurricanes.

(Sports Illustrated line from the 1990s: "Miami was the only football team with player pictures taken from the front and both sides." )

[ugarte]

i guess they keep the camera on him?

[Al DeFlorio]

Miami hitting threes.  Cornell isn't.  Down 35-29 mid-first.
