21 wins sounds better than 20 wins, so let's go for it!

I have to call two games at Magazine this afternoon, so I will get this started since I may not make it back before game time.

Go Trojans!

If we win tonight we go back up 2 full games on UL.

First blood. Always a good sign.

15:34 mark. Woods fouls. To this point there had been no fouls or turnovers by either team.

Josh has 4 assists and 4 rebounds, and there are still six minutes left in the first half.

We are letting them make a run. Let's play a little defense.

No foul trouble at all. Defense needs to be very aggressive second half. We are plus-4 on the boards, mainly because of Shoshi and Josh. Woods 4 of 5 from the field - get him the ball. Only five turnovers.

Either an awfully long halftime or the feed has frozen up again.

Josh has 6 assists and 6 boards. Will he get a very rare double/double? Stand by.

Three turnovers the last 1:48. Settle down.

Got it under control. Let's get the subs some time and coast on in and get ready for the road swing.

All of a sudden Shoshi is a rebounding machine!

Marcus scores! Good for the walk-on.

21 wins. Mark it down!

Not much not to like about this win. Outstanding shooting. Outstanding defense. Dominated the boards.

Well, I take that back - 15 turnovers. But we'll live with that.

Ruttley six assists. This kid is an amazing player. He just does what needs to be done.

Between them Woods and Hill were 10 out of 11 from the field. Pretty good production from the Undersized Power Forward position.

Eight minutes for Green. Glad to see it. That is just an investment for down the road, when we may really need it.

I realize that USA is not a powerhouse these days, but when you hold any D1 team to 29% shooting overall and 19% from the arc, that is some pretty salty defense!

attendance was 3959 tonight

Was there tonight and was a great crowd. A bit disappointed in the number of students in the student section. If you can't get kids to the game at 20-2 I don't know how you get them there.

The officiating in this game was absurd. They let pretty much everything go that USA did, and probably a lot that LR did too. I prefer games where the refs aren't the show, but to only call 5 total fouls on a team that lost by 31 and was pressing to try to get back into the game for most of the contest is ridiculous!
