The Mercer basketball team is rolling! It's finally time for the showdown with FGCU. Anyone on the board going to the game?

Just finished destroying Lipscomb.. That's now 3 blowout wins in a row, and the game before that a solid 10 point win over ETSU.

Great win by the bears!!!!(Lipscomb kind of reminds me of belmont) I think we have a great shot at winning against fgcu.

I'll be there

Remind you of Belmont in what way? Their record sure doesnt. They are bad bad bad with no size at all.

Belmont was a scoring team, they like to shoot the 3 pointers a lot.( there 3 point shooting allows them to get back in some games like they almost came back against mercer) I should have said they could be the next Belmont team. In the future I think they should be the favorite to win the asun.

It's gameday!! Everyone get your black shirts ready.

Leading 34-28 at the half. In the first minute of the half though, Langston Hall went down with an injury to his right arm or hand. Let's hope he's OK.. that's scary

Langston back in the game quickly, and just hit a 3. Looking good! Let's hope he's feeling good. Mercer leads 45-32 with about 14:00 to play.

There is one official in particular that is killing us with borderline calls.

And there's another one.... FGCU drops a shoulder on Coursey and they wait and call a push on Coursey.

...We severely mismanaged the last 2 minutes of clock. We're taking quick shots with no chance to rebound, and FGCU is racing down the floor to score. 20 point lead quickly became a 13 point lead on a 7-0 FGCU run.

Huge win!!!

FINAL

Mercer really dominated this game.... led by as much as 20 late in the 2nd half.

Your Bears are a complete team with a terrific point guard. I don't see any glaring weaknesses.

Thanks for the compliment on the team. I can't argue with that...
