SLC Basketball Tournament

Getting a little nervous...

54 seconds left, Cards lead 67-64, Sam takes timeout.

Lamar wins!!!

We showed grit and smarts.This was a really good game to watch.This and Stephen F Austin win two of best games I have seen Cards play in a few years.Our freshman point guard has really shown up big lately on offense,defense and game management.

Missed the majority of the game due to other commitments. Saw the last couple of minutes. Great ending, although just when you thought it was under control the Cards give up the five point lead allowing Sam to tie the game because of a turnover. Glad to see Sullivan sink the free throw.

We played really well until we went into our prevent offense with 15 minutes left...don't get why we did that but at least we pulled out the win.

Harrison is very good. A little out of control every now and then but he's going to be the best player we've had in a LONG time.

Under 8:00 timeout, Sam leads 59-58. Zach Nutall is taking over the game.

 

That kid is legit!

Cards win on Avery Sullivan free throw with .8 seconds left. Sam coach went ballistic on call and should have gotten a technical. Final score: Lamar 70, SHSU 69!

 

Cards play ACU at 8pm tomorrow night.

Lamar Women getting ready to tip off versus Central Arkansas at 11am.

Good luck ladies!

Lady Cards are shooting poorly.

Game tied at 25.

Halftime in girls game, tied 25-25.

End of 3rd quarter, Lady Cards trail by 1, 44-43. Central Arkansas keeping Lamar inside game from being effective.

At times during regular season games it sometimes seemed to me Coach Price started running the clock down on offensive possessions too early in the second half thus not leaving enough time to get a good shot.But now,with having to play 4 games in 4 days,to win it,it makes more sense.The guards dribbling down 10 seconds allows the bigs to catch their breath and others to play the extended minutes a 7-8 player rotation requires.Its a risk/reward decision the coaches have to make considering the game and their players condition and availability.They KNOW that better than me going into the third game in three nights.

5 minutes left, Lamar still down 53-47.

Agreed!

I would think ACU realizes that Lamar may not have their legs up to normal and would expect them to throw fullcourt pressure at us. Think Sam missed that opportunity last night, but Sam does not have a deep bench.

2 minutes left, Cards trail 59-55.

Lamar down 61-55, 1 minute left.

JP just lost her cool and ends her Cardinal career after punching a ACU player.

Game has been stopped with 41 seconds due to an altercation between Pimental and a Central Arkansas player. Walker ejected for Central Arkansas, Pimental ejected also. 63-55 Central Arkansas.

Hastings also may have been ejected. Now 65-55,

17 seconds left, Lamar down by 12 points.

Lamar Women season is over after losing to a hot shooting CArk team, CArk 69 - Lady Cards 55.

 

Refs let them play in this game and CArk took advantage by being much more physical than Lamar.

 

CArk takes on #1 seed SFA tomorrow.
