Thoughts: This will be our 2nd game of the season against Rhode Island. We beat them 61-50 at EBA on January 3. Stas Sivka paced us with a career high 17 points. He was the only Mason player to score in double figures. Myles Corey (12 pts) and Keeyan Itejere (10) paced the Rams. We won the rebounding battle 36-34. We shot 43.2% fro the game overall and 50% (8-16) from 3. We were a dismal 57.7% from the foul line. We held the Rams to 35.2% shooting, 29% from 3, and they were just 3-9 from the line. One of our better defensive outings of the year.
