Next up: St Joe's

[stevelee]

Buzzer beater from beyond half court didn’t count according to refs. 40-45.

[Corpulent Cat]

Blistering hot quarter for the Cats. 81% and 6-7 from 3. Up 45-40 at the half.

Seniors really stepping it up today - Welch and Gould with 15 each!

Brugler has 13 and 9 for the Hawks.

Great assist to turnover ratio for the Cats in the first half.

[i77cat]

42-54 now. Over 57% on 3s, just 6 turnovers. Wish I were there. I'll watch the replay tonight instead of the Bonnies/Ticks game.

Seniors must have read board posts.

St Joe some recovery. 50-56 after 3.

Hawk is pretty good dancer. We gave a hand.

[Corpulent Cat]

Both teams really cooled off in the 3rd. We turned them over 7 times.

[i77cat]

Uh-oh. St Joe's closed the 3rd on an 8-2 run. Score is 56-57 after a Hawks triple. Keep it going, Cats.

[i77cat]

57-61. Looks like Gould and Welch have been spectacular today.

[Corpulent Cat]

Well, we managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Hawks win 67-66. Lost a 12 point lead with 14 minutes to play.

Hats off to St.Joes for coming back.

The shooting stats are in our favor, except for 11 vs 3 made free throws. They shot 15 and we shot 5.

I wasn't watching. Perhaps they were more athletic and drew more fouls.

[Dr. Bliss]

Can't give up 16 offensive boards and expect to win.

[i77cat]

Sounds like a better effort. We get a second shot on Sunday. Go Cats.

As for fouls, gnat vs. camels officiating.

146 at 172. 47% 61-63.

We are underdogs in every remaining game except for GW.

[i77cat]

Now it's 149 at 172. 46% chance. Still only losing by 2. Mr. Massey looks at numbers. Had he actually watched us play lately, it wouldn't be 46%. 20% chance at best. If we play as well as we are capable of playing, we'll win. If we play the way we've been playing? No chance.

slow, slow start
