After all the close games with the Tribe, Seahawks take this one going away. Cacok is going to dominate the boards and our offense is going to force the Tribe to abandon their zone. Flemmings is going to get his game back together.

I don't see the Tribe getting blow out like that in a conference game. They see UNCW quite often and know them. I'd expect a closer game either way. Hopefully the Hawks don't get hurt and keep on winning.

I agree Bill. bill & the virgin plays us tough. Of course - everyone is and will come gunning for us. It's the burden of being picked on top (and for the time being on top). Nobody is going to be taken by surprise by the Hawks. We best be ready EVERY night for EVERYBODY.

Flemmings has had trouble getting to the basket and getting off his shot against big interior defenders, the Tribe don't have any. If they play zone, we can eat them up with the 3 ball, which plays to our quickness on long rebounds. Or, we can drive into the zone and let Cacok work the boards. I just think we're bad matchup for William and Mary, and in a high scoring game a 13 pt. win isn't a blow out.

I would agree UNCW is a bad matchup for us, but we are not undersized. Nathan Knight and Jack Whitman are fine inside. Knight is going to be really good(but is only a freshman). Whitman has vastly improved. We are, however, still not good enough defensively yet. We really miss Tarpey and all of his havoc. Plus, everyone shoots 60%+ from 3 against us. Our last 3 first halves(all CAA games), we gave up 50, 50 and 44. If we can survive the UNCW press(not sure we will), and hit some open shots though, we still can score in bunches. We have been blown out by all the really good teams(Duke, Louisville, Northeastern) we have played so far. Other than a horrific first half at Northeastern, we have played much better the last 5 games. My best guess is that it will once again be wildly entertaining and we will be in the game longer than anyone you have played in the league so far. Dixon and Ingram could be really fun to watch.

Northeastern blew us out in the first half, so it is possible. But, we had a classic the last 2 years at Trask, so hoping for another one.

It may be a fantasy, but I want to see Trask packed, Cacock dunking, Flemmings Eurostepping, Bryce popping jumpers in the paint, Ingram draining threes, and the press suffocating the Tribe. They gave us a beat down along with a 20-0 run at their place last year.
I WANT REVENGE....I WANT A BLOWOUT...I WANT TRASK ROCKING LIKE IT'S 2003!

Flemmings is also a marked man now
,teams study the film on him and know his tendecies with the ball. I thought Clemson kind of wrote the book on him with a stronger defender who got inside him,not letting him put it on the floor- if he could even get the ball. He could use a little help with a ball pick or even running off a double low post pick would help free him up a little bit. Bottom line-he will figure it out at some point.

Mullet with the truth. I agree 100%.

Assist/TO Ratio
1. UNCW 1.6
2. Col of Charleston 1.5
3. William & Mary 1.5
4. Northeastern 1.4
5. Hofstra 1.2
Key W&M Individual Stats (CAA-only games):
* Daniel Dixon is # 1 in the league in scoring (25.3 ppg) and Free Throw shooting (12-12, 1.000), and 5th in Field Goal % (.538)
* Jack Whitman is # 2 in the league in FG % (.778), behind only Cacok (.862). He is also t-5th in blocked shots (1.0 bpg)
* David Cohn is 3rd in the league in assists per game (6.0) and also 3rd in A/TO ratio (3.0). He is also 6-9 from three point range, ranking him first in 3-pt % (.667).
* Omar Prewitt has struggled thus far in the season compared to last year. Despite being in the top 10 in the league in minutes per game (34.7), he is averaging just 12.3 ppg compared to 17.8 last year. Shot selection has mostly been to blame, along with perhaps the pressure of becoming "the guy" and replacing the production of Terry Tarpey and Sean Sheldon. Expect him to figure it out before long, however.

Given our results, 12 seems about right. We have been blown out in the first half of all but one of our losses.
But somehow, I expect we will play well. But defense is the key for us.
