A key game if we aren’t going to let UNCA and LW run away at the top of the league. They come in less than 48 hours after a tough physical win against LW. We need to build off that great win the other night at PC.
Women play at a down UNCA team and should get to 6-0 with a solid effort.

BAD officiating stole this game from us. Our guys showed they can play with the best but bad breaks seem to be part of our life this year.

We play solid defense, which will give us a chance in every game. However:
1. We have no go to scorer on this team, someone that can go score the ball when needed. By comparison, the team that went to the dance had three.
2. We have two to three minute scoreless stretches at minimum twice a game that kill us. You think that you would force a shooting foul and get to the line to end the drought but…..
3. Our foul shooting is horrendous. We make just one more freebie in the final three minutes today we win.
4. Our three point shooting is terrible. Simply put.
5. Not even 800 in the building today. Beyond pathetic with such a key game being played today. We play in an antiquated 40+ year old building that wasn’t fan friendly in 1993, much less 2023. Hopefully our new AD has some vision for a new building, and give Porter to the volleyball and wrestling programs, similar to what UNCA did with the Justice Center awhile back.
With the parity in the conference, we have a chance to rectify these weaknesses and make a run in March. Can we is the question.

Agreed. I was watching with a friend and told him that our poor foul shooting had already cost us a couple of games this year. And sure enough, we let it slip away by missing the freebies, again.
Nicholas seems to be coming on as a scorer. Hope we can find some consistency there.

The women won again, and handily. Don't want to jinx them, but it's hard not to think too far ahead, about the Big Dance, with this team.
