Lamar vs UNO

[geezer]

Ladies are at home versus UNO tonight at 7 PM while the men travel to New Orleans for a 7 PM game. Personally I like this set up for weekday games better than the double headers. I think giving the Ladies a prime time spot at home during conference will be good for their attendance and growth of the program.

UNO men get off to an extremely hot start making 5 of their first seven field goals to jump out to a 13 - 2 lead. We'll have to see how the Cards recover from this start.

At the under eight timeout UNO is leading 25 - 11. LU has been their usual careless with the ball early and questionable shot selection. Add to that UNO has continued with their hot field goal shooting including a couple of miracle shots that have fallen.

At the under four minute time out and the good news is UNO has finally started missing some shots. The bad news is LU continues to turn the ball over with 11 turnovers. Score at 25 - 13 UNO.

Halftime for the men and UNO is leading 29 - 16. Disappointing first half for Lamar, LU shooting just 27% from the field including 1 of 8 from three point range. Lamar has 12 turnovers. Only positives are LU is leading in rebounding and has only committed four fouls but the foul total isn't as good as it looks as two of the fouls are on Weisbrod who has no points and only one rebound. Lamar will need to step up big time in the second half.

[geezer]

Lady Cards are up by 19 at 50 - 31. UNO kept it close through the first quarter before the Ladies built up the big lead in the second quarter.

PG position is always key to winning IMHO and just having average PGs isn’t going to cut it.
