it wasnt pretty for much of the first half but it was great to see guys not in our normal rotation get some real minutes late in the game. linthicum still has a lot of work to do but definitely has more potential than most pl big men. im also pleased at the prospect of castleberry getting more minutes next year. all in all, im excited about what this class combined with next years will be able to do down the road.
also nice to see donald brown continue to impress.
in other news, with this win bucknell passed princeton for fourth place in the nation in points allowed per game. 55.2! we also extended one of the ten longest active winning streaks in the nation. bucknell also set a new single season home attendance record tonight!

4,180 attendance - according to the Boxscore...
Nice to see the offense break out. Castleberry looked great in open court - the 2nd and 3rd teams didn't miss a beat.
This has to solidify our spot as the best road team in the Bracket Buster - looking forward to the announcement (whenever it is)...

If Brown continues to play like this, he will be regarded as one of the top 12 players in the PL before the year is over. Playing like he has recently, he might be the best player on three or four PL teams.

Eric - looks like our OOC opponents had a better weekend than last (thankfully). Too bad Niagara didn't close vs. Iona.

correct... niagara went down to iona and santa clara lost to san francisco late last night. boston u has maine and syracuse hosts seton hall today (and niagara and rider are playing)... three wins would make this weekend as good as the last one was bad. should both teams win, this weekend will have a very positive impact on our projected rpi (could be as many as a few thousandths of a point).

Also, Rob Thomas looked very good in the final nine minutes of last night's game.
