Yep, the officiating in this game was rugby like. Not to our advantage. Does the A10 have the bottom tier of refs? Why? Regarding officials.

No problem hiding a short guy in the packline as long as he’s fast (laterally fast too) short quick guy can actually be a key component. I don’t think you can easily hide 2 little guys. Pretty sure Miller knows what to do with Hammond when he arrives. Looking forward to getting everyone healthy with...

Yeah one of the main points of packline defense is to dare them to shoot the deep ball.
We’d be up 10+if we weren’t blowing lightly contested layups there’s nothing wrong with our game plan.

Kortright and Montgomery final look healthy. Cool off Clark, clean up poor rebounding and make few shots and we’ll be ok. Miller seems to be struggling a bit today distributing the minutes.
What’s up with all the season ticket no shows in S104?
Good turnout otherwise - let’s not lay a 2nd half egg.
