Much has already been said but allow me to add six quick observations from my perch behind the bench……..

1. This team is spirited and having fun…..finally!
2. This team has seemingly bought into “D” being every bit as important as “O”
3. This team is extremely well-conditioned as evidence by their defensive hustle
4. Doc had his team’s UNDIVIDED attention.
5. With 3-point shooters the likes of LT (season .492) and PA (season .444) we were never really “out of this game.” More importantly, looking ahead, we may not be out of another game. These guys are for real.
6. With FT shooters the likes of JC (season .905), PA (season ,875), and KL (season .833) we were never really out of this game. Ditto the comments made above about future games.

Finally, in my book this was simply a “Statement Game.” It puts on notice all – especially our friends out in Lewisburg – that March basketball may be a but more exciting that originally thought.
