Not a great first half - we're a little fortunate to not be down by 15-20 points.
Cooley is forcing the issue, attacking the rim, and playing without fear. Need Kino to show up in this second half, but recognize that Yale has good defensive guards, especially Simmons, who have made life difficult for him.
If we start the second half slow, I think we'll be on the receiving end of a blowout similar to the ones that Princeton and Penn handed Harvard and Dartmouth on Saturday.

Bears have played a great second half, thanks to Kemo Lilly. Down only 6 with under 9 remaining.
C'mon Bears, keep makin' it tough on the Dogs.

Brown just too sloppy with the ball in the front court. Giving away too many possessions, time running out.

A tale as old as time for the Bears this season - make a good push in the second half, but can't finish the job.
Kino did Kino things in the second half - even after two years of watching him play, I can't believe how quick his release is.
Still leaving too many points at the free throw line, still turning the ball over a little too much and at really inopportune moments. Still think this team could make a run.
We're on to Harvard.
