Haven't checked the scenario's, but I think, since GW beat UMASS, there's a good chance we GW in the quarters. I would HATE that. A tournament, experienced, talented team, with some big bodies.
I would have MUCH rather faced UMASS, if my scenario is correct.

We have a one of the point 3 point % defense in the country, so I'm hoping we can keep their 3's to under 10 made / under 30% for the game. If we can do that we'll have a great chance to come out on top.

Great half. Nobody played bad, Terrell has had wide open, good shots that just aren't falling.

Overall, great half!
