Back to back wins to start the season! What's up with that?
Maybe it's the level of competition or maybe it's just our time. Or, maybe it's just a little bit of both. Whatever the reason, it's been fun to watch. Let's hope more than 930 (game 2 attendance) show up to witness game 3 tomorrow night at Stabler when Broncs of Rider (NCAA participant from last year) comes to town.

While the opponents' style of play couldn't have been more different (St. Peter's furious press/59 shot attach vs. Delaware State's half court-take 15 seconds off the clock before making your first move to the basket / 49 shot affair), the game stats were remarkably similar.
