Third scholastic team in three years. Starting shooting guard at St Benedict’s is not chopped liver. And always a good sign to get a commit this early. Now you worry if he gets bigger offers.

Tyler Bertram 6’4″ 150# point guard, alledged to be #1 guard in Vermont, receives offer from Lehigh yesterday. But are we done for sure with the the high school class of 2018?

jimk72 replied to the topic PL QUARTERFINALS: Boston University in the forum Lehigh Men’s Basketball 6 years, 10 months ago
Thank you LU90 for your insight and great recap of the season and future prospects. Regarding KL, was he hobbled with some sort of injury or did his game just decline for other reasons? He seemed out of sync offensively all year and maybe a step slower than his sophomore season. Other questions: Is Sedore done? Did not see him on the bench…[Read more]

I watched on TV. Agree on Petrie & Jaworski. Both are a handful. Tough night for Iorio. Hopefully we take care of our business tomorrow night and then enjoy a weekend safari hunting for Bison in the scenic Susquehanna Valley.

Interesting perspective from the Leopards’ point of view: “That felt like an exhibition game….for Lehigh. I never saw a team look so collectively bored while dismantling us. “

Defense was there most of the night with excellent overall intensity. We got a little sloppy with the ball in the second half but overall a very solid game on an emotional night. Crowd of 2240 gave Kahron a huge ovation on his final regular season start. Big scare though when PA went down with apparent knee issue. He came back into the game…[Read more]

Very simple formula here. We need another low turnover, intense but controlled effort against a much improved group of Leopards. Considering the turnaround they’ve made, Franny may be up for league coach of the year after most thought he was done. And speaking of turnarounds, how ’bout us! Seven in a row, going for eight! Hope to see a great…[Read more]

To say this game is crucial states the obvious. Win in Baltimore tomorrow night and at home Saturday against “you know who” and we lock up 4th seed and a Patriot League Tournament home game the following Thursday March 1. Kenpom has us installed as a 3 point road favorite over the home standing Greyhounds. Can we shake off the Loyola jinx? If…[Read more]

jimk72 replied to the topic Lehigh 84 Army 53 in the forum Lehigh Men’s Basketball 6 years, 11 months ago
Tremendous team effort again. Army has struggled from the field lately, but holding any team to 29% is quite a defensive night. Plus out rebounding the physical Black Knights 52 to 41 is impressive. Although Lehigh had plenty of Army missed shots to go after.
Players certainly deserve credit for the effort and execution. But how about a tip…[Read more]

I went up to Lewisburg last night and saw Bucknell-Colgate. Like a dope I left,
with half the crowd, with 32 seconds left. ‘Gate had the ball with a 10 point lead. The rest is available here:A video-by-video breakdown of Bucknell’s miracle last-minute comeback win over Colgate

jimk72 replied to the topic Game 13 – Home vs. Bucknell in the forum Lehigh Men’s Basketball 6 years, 11 months ago
Still savoring this one. Went back to the archives and confirmed how one sided the Bucknell-Lehigh basketball rivalry was for a long time. Even as recently as the late ’90s. Bucknell won 21 games in a row from Jan 29 1992 thru Feb 16 2000. Since then pretty even. But our all time record against the Bison is still only 68-102 after this year’s…[Read more]

Maybe we aren’t done with next year’s freshman class. New offer to 6’9″ power forward Dima Zdor. Very impressive junior highlight reel. Do we have a shot at this kid?

A very special team win. Cohen flashy clutch scoring in among the Bucky bigs to go with 2 of the worst passes of the night. Pat Andree, perhaps his best overall game since coming to Lehigh in my opinion.
Karnick very physical underneath and continues to improve. If he learn’s to finish on offense he may be special. Stat’s won’t show it but he…[Read more]

The Forum is back! I’ve been lost for LU news for days since the site went into hibernation.
Going to this tonight and hoping for the best. Bucky maybe due for a let down. I think we can actually win this if we can finally cut down on the turnovers and continue the better rebounding fight we had against Boston.
I assume everyone noticed Shane…[Read more]
