Good god the turnover Dingle just committed on a pass attempt to Mosh allowing Drexel to cut it to 4.

And a shot clock violation and a Williams hook and the lead is down to 2. Almost entirely a Dingle-generated rally for the Dragons.

Now Slajchert with a dumb force after Dingle drew a non-shooting foul which reset the shot clock to 20.
60-55 still, 31 seconds left, Williams shooting FTs.
Makes 1-2. Spinoso fouled on rebound.

It's nice to get a win, but that isn't saying much. I'll reserve most all other comments until I can watch the game in full later tonight.
But unless there is an injury I missed, I don't understand why Ed Holland III would get a total of 0 mins tonight after what he showed in the first 3 games.

I listened to the radio broadcast on the Penn Athletics website. No mention of an injury in Holland's case. They did go into a discussion of the coaching staff's use of the out of conference games as sort of a rotation science project. Could be the most logical explanation. Or it could have been a matchup thing.

Right, Monroe barely played against Towson but got 34 minutes tonight and was a big contributor, particularly on the defensive glass.

Not exactly Mr. Holland's Opus.

Just back from the DAC. Actually very comfortable--as long as you are on the sidecourt-all seatbacks. Tremendous video board--nice little arena that was not close to full.
Oh, the game. Drexel is not very talented, but has a lot of athletes whose athleticism bothered us. Other than Mosh early, no one really could get a shot off other than Slajchert and Dingle. Both of them made some questionable decisions.
Given our 15 point lead midway through the 2nd half, this should have been a laugher, but we went into one of our patented offensive slumbers and Drexel ran off 10 straight making this a nail biter. Never should have been. If we had any offensive flow and ran plays, we would have won this by 25.
Oh well, I'll take the win, but we need to get a lot better. And I also want to know why Holland got no time at all.

Yes, the defense was better tonight (though the matchup may have had a lot to do with that). More Smith and Monroe means better defense and rebounding. Maybe if we get behind we play Charles and Holland more in hopes of more offense.
The other rotation thing that surprises me is how little Martz is playing. After the D3 scrimmage where he started at the 3 I thought we might see that “big” look some, but instead Martz is only playing the 4 and getting fewer minutes than Mosh at the position. Martz isn’t doing as much with his minutes, either. He isn’t rebounding the way that position normally does for us (though it could be that Smith and Monroe are essentially playing the role of the guy who cleans up the defensive rebounds while others box out).

History may record that Penn won this game at the FT line. Never thought I would have occasion to say that. Probably not a sustainable approach.
