awesome effort great half shooting start strength
They just had an awesome shooting effort in the first half tonight. They got off to a great start shooting the ball, especially from 3-point range, which has not been their strength most of this season.
across biggest great size starting talented team veterans wrapped
They have depth, size and shooting. All those things wrapped into one is a great starting point. The biggest thing is they're veterans across the board, and probably the most talented team across the board.
capable chance clearly conference contend extremely favorites good hot looking played start teams whatever
For whatever reason, they haven't played as well as they did at the start of the year. In December, I thought they were clearly one of the favorites in the league, and that hasn't changed. They're an extremely talented, capable opponent, and one of those teams that is looking to get hot and have as good a chance as any to contend in the conference championship.
defensive offensive several tremendous
Not just from an offensive standpoint, but from a defensive standpoint, we got tremendous contributions from several players.
blowing ended score stretch
They were really able to get on a spurt and score in bunches. They made a lot of shots, and that stretch just ended up blowing it up pretty quick.
basketball days five four good half playing
We were playing very good basketball four or five days ago, even in the first half of the Hartford game. We just have to get back to doing the things we do.
depth eight five guys six
We just don't have the depth that they have. They have eight guys and five need to play well. We have six guys and all six need to play well.
huge question
There's no question Ernest was huge for us during that stretch.
chance consistent fill guy holes talking
I've been talking to him a lot about doing this on a consistent basis. He is a guy who has a chance to fill some of these holes for us.
fortunate great highlights hope shot
You see highlights like that every night, you just hope that it's not you some night. It was a great shot and we were fortunate it didn't come before the buzzer.
carry clicking happy leader player struggling tremendous types wilson year
You need those types of players, those all-conference players. Wilson is a Player of the Year candidate. When they're struggling he can carry them, and when everyone's clicking he's happy doing what he does. He's been a tremendous leader for their team.
chris game phil rebounds
Phil had another big game for us. He and Chris had all the big rebounds for us down the stretch.
america guys history maine sink takes team time versus
So many guys on this team have never been through the America East, they don't know the history of Maine versus Vermont. When you have so many new guys, it takes some time for all that to sink in.
cut good surprised won work
I'm a little surprised Howard won that game. Mercer has some very good players, a big frontcourt, and a very good 3-point shooter, so we have our work cut out for us again.
