    In response to Columbia Alum

We played much better in the second half which was certainly a coming out party for Faulds and Stefanini. Faulds was outstanding and together with Smith and Stefanini propelled the Lions to a ten-point lead only to see it wither away quickly down the stretch when Albany's two outstanding guards --Cremo and Nichols--destroyed us. Meisner and Faulds neutralized Albany's two powerful front court players for most of the game, but Meisner didn't score much and Tape had a difficult game. Hunter helped some, but still needs to get up court quicker and then play aggressively near the basket all the time. He is just not helpful on the outside Meisner, Adlesh, Hunter and Bibbs need to score a significant number of points for us to win games. In particular, Bibbs clearly has the skills set to be a big-time scorer, but does not seem comfortable yet in the Lion offense. Albany's Cremo is a good example of a high scoring guard who consistently plays from his strength which is why he is so good. Bibbs needs to emulate how Cremo plays. We also have very little depth in the front court without Castlin, Hanson, Brumant, Eberle and Killingworth all of whom were missing again tonight for reasons that haven't been shared with the Columbia Basketball Fan Base. Inasmuch as the relative success of the Lions this season is likely to depend on the availability of Castlin and the contribution of perhaps one or two of the other missing players,the athletic department/coaching staff seems remiss for not keeping the Columbia Basketball Fan Base at least somewhat informed.
