This is a different DJ than the last 4 games. IMO, he is not that good

 

[Milt Mudflap]

I feel kind of bad for the hype guy having to try to hype the crowd for this performance

He is getting paid, make him work

 

[jessej]

Actually this DJ sucks

I sure hope not paid much

Good to see Catawba took pointers from vcu on how to foul our guys going to the basket

 

[mkaufman1]

Settled down the last 8-9 minutes on both sides of the ball.

86 - 62 final score

Didn’t really get to watch this one. Why did Adebayo only play 10 minutes? Dog house or did we lose another starter to injury?

He had a rough game as did a few of our other bigs. Sivka stepped up.

 

[Milt Mudflap]

Of all the games I’ve been to, that was one of them

They announced (quietly) during the game that he is a current student.

The next 3 games are warmup / get right / practice games for Mason.

I expect Mason to blow Catawba out much like when we beat up Alfred.

Mason 85
Catawba 52

It was 86 -62 - I wasn't too far off

 

[GMU79]

Well, that's more like it. I was hoping they would come out more ready to play after halftime.

 

[Patriotsince81]

Well, we won. That's about it. Too much selfish play. Ball movement in the first half was pathetic, too much one on five and individuals looking to get numbers. Defense, well, we are a far cry from last year. We are going to get KILLED by pressure unless we grow a ton in the next few weeks. A D2 team turned us over so easily in the first half. MUCH work to be done in Fairfax. Kudos to Stas Sivka and Emanuel Kanga in the 2nd half. New DJ SUCKED. Students SUCKED. Attendance SUCKED. Not my best night at EBA. But, we won.... I'll take it. 3-0.

I watched the game. I found out Cawtawba is a nationally ranked D2 power. They pressed the crap out of a Mason and put them on their heels.

Mason took the punch, made adjustments and took control of the game.

jahari long and Kory Mincy maybe the best guard tandem Mason has had in a while.

This was a good growth win.

Yeah, but how did the team play? How was the DJ, students, attendance?

Nationally ranked? They were picked 5th in their own league. I would love to take a look at your source.

I don't know what else is going on on-campus, but this is the furthest away I have had to park since the homecoming game.

Tuesday/Thursday classes are the most common here. Everyone must’ve decided to go to class the day we had a game too!

Yes this was our students run the show game- a partnership with the Costello college of business. Compared to last years students run the show game we had 65% higher of a student attendance. Student attendance today was still lower than the last 2 games but higher than last year!

I hope you all couldn’t tell too too much of a difference between students doing a bit of the work in planning/operations compared to a regular game.
