Prominent bench players..

Tim Quartermane #55 G 6'6" 187

Against TT the Tigers shot 40% from the field, but only 10.5 % from the arc (2-19.)
They outrebounded the Red Raiders 47-46, and shot 65% from the stripe 15-23.

The Tigers have talented size at the forward, and guard positions, but their bench, though deep and tall, seems relatively young and inexperienced (excluding Quartermane.) I think ODU actually has superior depth and can win this game. IMO the Monarchs need to challenge the post early and often and try to get into the bench. Hornsby, Gray, and Quartermane are talented and have good size (esp. Quartermane at 6'6" off the bench.) Hopefully our bigs can help get some good shots on the perimeter for Baker, Mosely, and Co. Also, hopefully both ODU's 3 pt. accuracy, and LSU's inaccuracy carry over from their most recent games.



GO MONARCHS!!!
