Nice day for PL hoops. All at half time:
1. Navy up 13 on UPenn
2. Army up 1 on Fairfield
3. Colgate down 16 to Columbia
4. American down 17 to St. Francis (PA)
I would be happy if the PL can split these games.
Loyola will probably get crushed by Creighton later on today.

Well Loyola was a no show in the 2nd half. Final 82-52 for Creighton.

If I told you that HC shot 55%, 58% behind the arch, and 90% from the line against Monmouth, you would probably guess that they won. Well . . . . they ended up losing by 3 (80-77). Monmouth had 7 more offensive rebounds and made 8 more freethrows.
Tough loss.

If I told you Lehigh scored 89 pts at Arkansas St, with 30 from Kempton and 21 from Ross, you'd probably think they won big. Unfortunately, they lost by 8 after being down as much as 29 in the 2nd half.

Check this out: Holy Cross was up by 5 at home with 18 seconds to go, but Monmouth went on an 8-0 run to polish off the Crusaders 80-77. Here's how:
--Old-fashioned three-point play by Monmouth
--Five second violation by Holy Cross
--Old-fashioned three-point play by Monmouth
--Monmouth steals the ball, is fouled and hits both shots
--Holy Cross misses three-pointer at the buzzer

So they are 50% at game-tying 3 pointers in the final seconds in the past year.

Army suffered a similar fate yesterday. They were up 9 on Fairfield with under 2:00 to play and gave up 10 points to lose by 1.

Ha...believe me, I couldn't type "Holy Cross" "three-pointer at the buzzer" without thinking of that shot!
In a thinly-related observation, despite that fact that he was a junior, it wasn't until that fateful PL tourney game that I realized Malichi Alexander's first name is not pronounced like this.

Aside from his iconic portrayal of the Fonz, it's a little known fact that Henry Winkler once held the scoring record at Central Methodist University in Missouri. Nah, just kidding, but I couldn't tie the Fonz to basketball.

Mr. Phillie, here is your hoops tie-in. Apparently Henry Winkler is a Wichita State Shockers fan:

Ha...nice! I recall Richie once was a short-lived basketball hero but really, Fonzie could've done whatever the heck he wanted. He was, after all, the Fonz.
But back to Bucknell basketball, I can't wait to watch this improved team against Richmond. Win or lose, I just hope they play a really good game. Go Bison!

Lehigh loses to Lasalle by 6, HC beats Albany, Army over FDU. LC leading Drexel. Shaping up as a good night for PL. Oh yes, Loyola wins too.

It must have been a hack-fest. Citadel scored 30 from the free throw line on 30 of 34 shooting.

Sounds like "home court advantage." Colgate had 8 PT's via ft.

Navy was down 25 to Bryant a halftime, then scored 52 in the 2nd half to win by 2. WOW!
Lehigh is down 1 to Stony Brook under a minute to play.

What is wrong with Lehigh? They lost by 5 to a team ranked #234 by kenpom.com. That is pathetic. Lehigh has to start representing the PL a whole lot better. They have too much talent to lose games like this.
