Stats: https://judolphins.com/sports/mens-basketball/stats/2025-26
Thoughts: They are young! 5 of their top 8 are underclassmen. Their two wins are against very weak competition. We haven’t exactly played lights out against poor teams yet. But, this should be another home win to take us to 5-0.
Discuss.
