Ayers' senior year against St Francis in the home opener. Refs completely swallowed their whistles
Nice get 54. I went back to look at the boxscore to see who the officials were. Names didn't mean anything to me. What I found interesting, however, is in their next two games the following week, the team were 6-of-8 from the line at St. John's and 5-of-8 at Albany, meaning in a 3-game stretch, they were just 11-of-16 from the foul line. By comparison, his year's team has gone to the foul line 106 times in its last 3 games.
What is also interesting is that team didn't get to the FT line much despite having Ayers, Haas, and Kaspar in the starting lineup.

Could it be that team was a jump shooting team that rarely took it inside? (No idea, just thinking.)

Yes, that was the type of offense being run at the time - although it didn't necessarily fit the style of play of Haas, Kaspar, and Ayers. They would have loved to take it inside more. On the plus side, they had very few turnovers and were great on the defensive boards.
