11/13: 80-95. We played little to no D. 22, 11 for SF Vic Walk, 12, 7 for C Joe Hend. Yes, they were a tough team but I’m not happy with the way we played.

11/20: All 3 recruits sign.

12/25: 6-3, RPI #52. PPG 80.6, #88.

1/29: 12-7, 6-4, in a 4 way tie for 3rd in the A10. RPI #69. +3.9 PPG (#111), +1.1 RBs, +3.2 TOs.

3/7: We play #6 seed VCU, 16-13, 10-8 in the quarters. They won by 20 there. The odds makers have them favored by ½ point.

3/8: 84-73. 20, 7 for SG Cal Buck, 14 each for Hend and Hoge.

#2 seed ST Bonnie, 18-10, 13-5, in the semis. They won by 13 there. As for our last game we are ½ point underdog.

#8 seed GW, 14-16, 8-10, for the title. We won by 13 at our place,but yet again, we are a ½ point underdog. Maybe it’s lucky for us!

Motion's performance while not being in the original offense is pretty amazing. That is a lot of ppg at 5 tempo.
