Hanging tough up 36-26 with 1 min left in the half.
Energy is there. No crappy offensive possessions where we are chucking up threes. It's beachum downlow then the offense flourishes. MME had some good mins. Rok good on the D end. Lockett has 13 and T. Davis hot to the rack late in the half. 40-28 Rockets at half!
I was not planing on watching tonight after the last few games, but wow, what a performance.
Ending the half with a great block by Lockett and a stretch pass from Wiard to Davis for the layup. I think the best half they played all season. I pray they can keep that up.
Best. Performance. Of. The. Year.
Locket with 13, Beacham 11, Davis, Santucci, Black and Morgan-Elliott each with 4.
Some great defense too. Rockets have 10 offensive rebounds, and 10 second chance points.
Defense has been stellar. Switching and swarming to the ball. Offensive drive to the glass has been amazing making, layup after layup.
Add in just 3 turnovers and it’s a new look Rockets!

Very reminiscent of the 2nd and 3rd qtrs we played up there in January. As we all know, CMU can go off though. Holding my breath!
Black is heating up with 2 Trey's but it's becoming a back and forth 3 point shoot out.
51-38 with 5:38 in the 3rd
57-50 very up tempo game and CMU does the offense thing well...
We got frantic all of the sudden and CMU scored on most possessions to end the qtr.
T. Davis is so hit or miss...
Up 59-56 entering the final qtr
Rockets missed 3 straight layups and then the defense just left the building.
CMU has tied it under 8 mins 61-61
I feel with their scoring margin they do this a lot... And when they turn it on, there isn't a thing a MAC team can do to stop them.
Santucci with 16!! The crowd is amped.
67-63 UT.
Walters for CMU scoring 7.5 ppg has 17.
Santucci carrying us. 69-65 UT
Our average output is 65.7 offensively and 67.5 defensively. 4:31 left... Should eclipse both averages.
ROCKETS UP 8, 3 MINS LEFT
