In response to TigerFan
Really impressed with that win and beating Penn always brings me joy. The shots were not falling but the Tigers gritted out the win on defense and on the boards. Tigers have some real scrappers. This looks like a year when “winning ugly” is going to be key and we seem to have guys who can do it. Dingle and Slajchert were swarmed on defense and the duo went a woeful 7 for 32 from the field.
Random observations:
1. Nice job hugging the Penn shooting duo out beyond the arc, and then everyone collapsing to the lane when they drove. I think they learned from being beaten by Lilly and Wojcik.
2. I finally saw Spinoso shoot (and miss) a hook with his right hand. I hope he never perfects it.
3. We sent everyone to the offensive boards. I would surmise we had no fear of the Penn fast break.
4. Martini looked very tight after missing his first three point shot.
