[GMU79]

Mason has had 12 TOs... Winthrop only 3

Like usual.

 

[GMUYoda]

Nick what are you doing?

 

[GMUYoda]

Yeah... so... this last minute... has taken... forever... like.....a really long.... time...

 

[GMUYoda]

Mason wins 96-90 to move to 2-0.... but the last two minutes of this game... wow ugly

 

[DRK331]

Mason wins

The last 2-3 minutes were a brutal watch

 

[GMU79]

96 is wonderful! We finally have some guys who can shoot and score!
90 is terrible! Tony will probably do some real butt chewing.
And, as is usual for us, TOs and FT shooting...not good.
Still, a win. And not an OOC loss which will come back to haunt us come NCAAT time.

 

[Milt Mudflap]

Winthrop was very tenacious. 51 seemed to be their best player but he may have cost them a chance of winning picking up that T after he fouled out.

A 6 point win missing three key players (including at least 2 starters) is big. Mincy and Long really stepped up today (I’ll forgive Long his missed FTs because he played A LOT of minutes).

Make the early FTs and this becomes an easier win. Not too concerned with the defense right now because we are missing three of our best defenders on the team.

Get well soon. We will need all hands on deck for conference play. We are deep but not that deep.

 

[Milt Mudflap]

And by my estimate, the last 1:37 took 21 minutes to play.

 

[GMUgemini]

PS. We won this game because we dominated the glass. Even if they didn’t turn into a lot of points. That was a rebounding asswhopping.

Ugly. VERY happy to walk away with a win. Worst defense I've seen in a long time. But, 2-0. The injury situation is concerning.

Indeed, Swiss cheese comes to mind…

Big night from Mincy. Needed it in the absence of BOC and Troutman.
