YSU - PFW MBB

(1/2) > >>

mudclods:
YSU loses 71-61 but it was close throughout until a bunch of FT late.

Coach said post game on the radio it was a piss poor performance and he's pissed off, and certainly should be.

Really disappointing loss.  YSU didn't have any energy, not sure if they looked past PFW to Cleveland St. on Sunday or what.  PFW scored 20 points off YSU's 14 turnovers.  YSU just 6-12 from the line and missed a bunch of key ones when it was close.

I really thought once YSU got over the hump in the 2nd half and took the lead they were going to be ok.  I thought the game changed when YSU was down 1 and threw it away and PFW had a breakaway dunk.  That gave them the momentum back.  No idea why their player wasn't given a technical as he taunting YSU when coach called the timeout.  Coach was hot. 

Didn't think it was a very good officiated game, but that was besides the point. 

Nice game for Chicone with 13, but I can't understand why him and Ogoro continually cannot shoot free throws. Chicone is now 9-18 and Ogoro is 5-13 this year.

Everything is a struggle for YSU on offense ever since the WVU game.

PFW physically matched up well against us.  Cohill and Ollison were taking the ball to the hoop and getting stripped or blocked.  Like Mud said the energy level was much higher on the PFW side.  They came to play and contested the whole shot clock.   YSU never established an inside game and 5 of 22 from three isn't a recipe for a win.

Is this team a microcosm of the last two games ?  I hope not but Horizon league teams have a good understanding at this point  in the season of what our strong and weak points are as we do of them.

Love watching Luke Chicone.  He seemed to play with more confidence last night and when he decides to attack whether on driives or pull up shots good things happen.  With experience and physical maturity Luke should have a nice career.

Penquin68:
Agree totally with the last 2 posts. We can't have 5 guys at the 3 point line and pass the ball around the horn.  Mike A needs to be in the paint, not at the 3 point line taking 3's to take the heat off the others. Tevin O and Dwayne C are our outside and drive to the basket threats now, and they are getting double teams each time they get the ball.  Need Daniel O and Miles H to improve there offensive game for us to improve or get others in the lineup. The other teams have us figured out at this point. Loosing Garrett sure hurts.

Wick250:
I was angry when I walked out of Beeghly last evening.  This morning I have a more realistic outlook.  We have no quality wins whatsoever. The only truly good team in the Horizon League blew us off the court in the first half. We could not even handle a mediocre league opponent on our own floor. We are an average team in one of the lowest-rated DI leagues. High expectations for this bunch is unreasonable.

goodnews:
Sad to say but YSU Basketball is still irrelevant .  The transfer portal certainly didn't help the cause and will probably never help this program but rather hurt like it did this past season.
