I don't think enough has been said about the team defense. Adjustments made at the half holding Canisius to 23 points and locking down Iona the last five minutes were keys to both wins.
After taking a beating on the boards in the "ugly" first half ,we solved the problem in the second stanza with Bacon (18pts 15 boards) putting the cherry on at the buzzer.
Good decision by Dunne to leave Bacon in with 4 fouls down 7.
Difference between this year and last is better second half performance ,win or lose. Last year the last five minutes was usually fatal.
Team and coach are now learning how to win.
Have to admit it didn't look promising when after battling back Turner banked his last second three.
Makes the long trip home a bit easier.
Note to Loyal.There is speculation Gooding who can graduate this year may possibly move on.

Free throw shooting also good today 15-17 kept us in the game.
And did I hear Canisius was second worst in the nation. They were 11-15,not that bad either.
I for one think we try the ally-oop too often,it seldom works, ,but wasn't the one to Costner pretty.

The Allez-Oop was one of the prettier I've in a long time. I hadn't realized quite how athletic Costner was, but he caught the ball, hung in the air and emphatically deposited the ball.

The play of Ryan Bacon today was truly outstanding. His steal and tip in during the last 25 seconds was truly a highlight reel in itself.
B/T/W Goldsberry reminds me so much of Tim Spitler. Unbelieveable hustle and determination.

I couldn't be more thrilled with this win. When was the last time we pulled a win out of our asses in a game where we got beat for 39 minutes? In a crazy way, it's a sign of progress. One of the steps toward winning is finding any possible way to win, no matter what. It's only the last second that counts. On to Rider!
