Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

I'm liking how active Moss is on the boards, fouled on the put-back and making his 3rd trip to the line. Makes one of two and its 31-23.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

Continuing to miss FT's lead was 31-25, then Moss with a missed layup but put it back to extend to 33-25. I'm looking for a run to go up by about 14 heading into the half.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

Moss with a breakaway where he misses the contested layup but gets his own rebound and putback, then has a big block on the defensive end to follow it. The kid has some hops.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

I'm not happy at all. We're either being lazy or they are matching us now. Score now 30-23. I'm probably expecting too much.

Coach has played more players than usual in different combinations. The talent level compared to last year is amazing. Once they learn to play together it will be fun to watch.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

Wesleyan made a bunch of 3's late in the half to make it close.

Sargent makes a 3 at the buzzer to give the Jacks a 43-37 lead heading into half.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

DWU made the run, geesh. A 3 at the buzzer to double our lead? I gotta say it again, I'm disappointed. Lots of excuses I can think of, none of them acceptable in my mind. I know I'm being harsh but I have my expectations for this team and being up by 6 against DWU doesn't meet them.

Here is hoping for a better 2nd half. 8-19 from the line. Too many fouls. Now, I realize the women only lead by 2 at the half and played much better in the 2nd half. I expect the same from men.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

Does anybody know if Preston Broughton from DWU is playing? I haven't heard his name and he is there best returning player....

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

Well, I've been listening to 570 in the car on and off, we sound a ton more physical...maybe to pysical. I like it.

Missed some inside shots, need to make those....mostly typical exhibition game stuff that hopefully will be corrected in regular season.

51-43 Jacks on a Williams lay in.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

Palarca seems to really add a defensive spark. I've heard good things about him (and Sargent) and both look like they'll be good additions.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

53-50, Jacks aren't playing well at all in second half. Way too many turnovers and Wesleyan still getting open looks at the three.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

I have to admit I was hoping for a better over all team performance. Let get at least a 20 point win.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

Apparently all it takes to stop the Jackrabbit offense is a zone defense.

Re: Dakota Wesleyan Game Thread

Well like last year, we just aren't shooting well.
