2/13: 96-75 at George Mason, 12-11, 9-3. We took an early lead but they came back. Then we got hot again. Up 11 at the half. We matched up well with this team and really took over in the 2nd half.
We shot 52.9% and held them to 44.0%. Again tonight we were more aggressive on D, and although it meant they went to the line 37 times (we went 22) it was worth it. An amazing +34 on the boards and that was the key stat.
Chris Burr had a terrific game, 26 and 17. 24, 5, 5 for Risi, 15, 3, 6 for Herd. Great bench play, 21, 19, 5. We were deeper because Hobs was back. He had a pretty poor game, no points, 0-7 shooting. I should have played him in our last game to chip off some of the rust, but hey, we won tonight. Hopefully he'll be himself in our next game.
2-2 vs. The top 4 teams in the A10 and we looked really good in 3 of the 4 games. I'll take it. Tied for 3rd in the A10 but 2 back of 2nd and 3 back of 1st.
