I must agree with the above posts on growth seen in the New Year. After the horrrendous Monmouth performance the team seems to have made a turnaround. I expect them to be very competitive the rest of the way. Oldtimer has correctly pointed out that Bacon is playing at an all MAAC level though i doubt he gets that recognition post seaon.
I hope Costner contiues to show his shooting ability when he's open as his development this year is also a major factor in competitiveness. To be fair to the staff i suspect Darryl Lampley might have added quite a bit this year if he were here and finally playing the point under control as i heard he was in the preseason.Darryl would have added some offense at the position.If Brandon Hall is to be the eventual point guard he must be able to hit a free throw or a jump shot in a crucial situation.
Nick Leon has also answered the call and moved his game up another level. Hopefully Wesley finds his shot again and adds a third reliable offensive option.

I must agree with you that Brandon must be able to complete foul shots and jump shots at critical times and my understanding is that when he first came to SP and played in their open gym he did both,however I thought his curent problem was because he broke his footand was unable to play for 3 to 4 months prior to the season,he returned I think in Nov.But in the earlier part of the season he was shooting at a higher percentage, even then he still was not shooting that much, but we don't know what was being asked of him by the coach. It seems to me as if he was having a confidence issue but is now getting over it as the rest of his game is picking up. Now with the continued support of his teammates and the coaching staff he should come out of this funk.
The same support will also help Wes return to form, as you can see he seems to be on track again with his scoring however not only is he probably adjusting to personal issues but also on court issues with his constant mugging and no calls being made on his behalf. Wes is a proven ball player and he has the ability along with Nick to lead this team to contention.
The key for these players and the rest of the Peacocks is the concept "team" which they have definitely become.I to had concerns about some coaching decision but I must commened Coach Dunne and his staff for the work that they have done up to this point.If I coaching one of the upper teams in the MAAC I would not want to play Saint Peters or Marist in the first round of the playoffs
