Subject: Denison -- slow start in 88-54 loss to USA U-21
Sean only played 12 minutes in a exhibition game in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada today (July 25th)
in a game that saw the Canadians shoot 26.7% from the field in the 1st half (42.3% in 2nd half) maybe Sean's 1-6 FG (16.6%) has some other explainations ...
actually his 6 attempts tied him for 2nd on the team and his 2 off boards were tied for 2nd highest on the team .. his 3 total boards in 12 min. of action was 2nd highest in Board/min for the team (6'5" 224lb redshirted Eastern Wash. U Freshman forward Henry Bekkering had 4 offensive boards in 11 minutes of work)
hard to guess what the Canadian coaches has in mind but Sean did have 6 FT attempts (converting only 2), 1 PF, & 3 TOs ... so perhaps with the scoring attempts, fouls, and offensive RBS it looks like maybe he was going to the hoop a lot .... at least while he was in there ... but with the exception of Pittsburg's 6'9" F Levon Kendall (3-6 FG, 1-2 FT, 4 rbs, 1 ast, 5 TO, 1 stl in 20 min) all of the other Canadian bigs (6'9-10") had about the same numbers as Sean ...
let's hope Sean grows against this competition ... he and we are going to need it ...

Re: Denison -- Meet Sean May -- JCard, 21:02:27 07/25/04 Sun
Of note too, was that Sean May of North Carolina was the top scorer for Team USA. We'll catch hisactin November in the Newll Challenge. FYI, he's the son od College Player of the Year Scott May (Indiana '76- one my personal favorite non SCU players. I'm feelin' real old right now.Good job with the info, '66.

Denison Leads Canadian over the Bahamas -- Bronco Heh?, 21:08:47 07/28/04 Wed
The Under 21 Canadian national team defeated Bahamas 84-66 in front of 6,000 fans that were at the Halifax Metro Centre home to the Under 21 Tournament of the Americas from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
This was the final game of the first day of competition in the tournament.
Canada dominated from the start thanks to a great and balanced offensive game and a great defensive effort that caused a poor percentage from the field for Bahamas.
The first quarter ended 18-8 in favor of Canada as well as the first half 44-17 thanks to 9 points from Sheray Thomas.
Bahamas recuperated in the second half but was too late in order to be a threat in the game for Canada.
Sean Denison led Canada with 13 points

Canadian forward Sean Denison shoots over Lavar Gilbert of Bahamas at the FIBA
Under-21 Tournament of the Americas Wednesday at Halifax Metro Centre. Denison
had a team-high 13 points as Canada came out on top, 84-66.
Canada ended up with a whopping 32 turnovers, 24 of them after the break.
It wasn't the type of basketball Canada wanted to play, coaches and players conceded.
"We're going to have to stop playing the rat-race game with these teams and slow it down to play our game," said (Shelburne native, and Canadian team member Corey) Hallett. Hallett, who logged four points and six rebounds in about 15 minutes of action.
Sean Denison led Canada with 13 points and eight rebounds
Canada plays the Dominican Republic at 8 p.m. tonight. If they win and Argentina beats Bahamas (noon), both squads will be 2-0, clinching medal-round berths and guaranteeing Canada a trip to the under-21 world championships for the first time ever.
