1/14: 82-63. We took an early lead. Up 12 at the half. But Mims was in foul trouble pretty much from the start; he truly is making me crazy. This one was pretty easy.
17, 7, 6, with 7 steal for Flye Murl; great game. 6 other guys had between 12 and 8; 12, 9 for super sub Car Mosh.
7 TOs. Great D, 39.5%, 3-15 on threes. +12 in the paint, 12-0 on fast breaks.
16-2, 4-0. Back to #1 in the country, NET#3.
At #21 UCLA, 14-3, 4-0, next. We're tied with them for 1st in the PAC 12 with 3 teams one game back.
They feature a strong inside game and hit the boards hard. Our big guys will need to step up and tonight is not a night when Mims can get into foul trouble.
Red Butts, Portland Times:
We've been following the Oregon Ducks under, in his own words, their "phenomenal" new coach, Dunphy (Phee) Nomakowski.
Today we'd like to talk about a guy who may be the best 6th man in the country, Carson "Car" Mosh, a Center/Forward. Car is very versatile, playing all three inside positions. In 22.3 minutes a game, coming from the bench, he averages 11.5 points and 5.2 rebounds. I've been at the Knight Arena for every home game and either travelled with the team or watched the away games and I can tell you that Car seems to make the big play when it's needed.
His D is adequate, but getting better, and Coach Phee says it is something they're working on. Car is a hard worker from what I've seen in the two practices I've watched, and it looks like the future is bright for this talented young man!
