vs. SC State (Dec. 14th)

[Paul C]

Great finish. Great job getting the ball into Bowser and cranked up the D again. We keep gutting out wins like this, builds character but takes years off my life

CBR said PJay had dislocated shoulder. Per Mayo clinic:

A fairly simple shoulder dislocation without major nerve or tissue damage likely will improve over a few weeks. Having full range of motion without pain and regained strength are necessary before returning to regular activities. Resuming activity too soon after shoulder dislocation may cause re-injury of the shoulder joint

PJ might be out for awhile. Dang

Sam game is on 29 Jan. Sam seems to be the best competition for Dins. Hopefully PJ back by then

He also said it popped right back in, which usually means a better prognosis. We shall see.

Ed Bronson is ready, excited for him to help fill in for PJ!!!

We will see a lot of House and that is good..he is talented and has all the shots..a threat to shoot drive and also distrubutes the ball well...so when PJ returns he will have a lot of support and the team will be that much better..

Paul C and Affirm- been thinking the same, pretty sure it was about this time last year when we had the Anderson debacle.

We were behind with 1:43 left.
We were tied with 36 seconds left.
Whew!!
So very thankful we beat SC State!!

Coach Richey says Charles Johnston should be back for Harvard game next Saturday........

Another bad day for the SoCon, uncg loses to N. Florida, WCU loses to UNCA, ETSU loses to Jacksonville. 1-3 on the day.

The latest occurrence of what is looking like a curse. Devin Sibley was playing great early in his senior year - hitting over 45% of his threes and looking like a sure repeat winner of SoCon POY - when he was injured early in the season. He never really recovered that season. Alex Hunter was hitting over 50% of his threes early in his senior year when he was hurt. He came back and had a good senior year but his 3 pt. % was not as good as before he was hurt. Hope PJ can break the curse.

It is great that we are showing the toughness and composure to keep coming back from second half deficits, but I wish we could win a few more easily.

Not a big surprise that ETSU and UNCG lost. Both games were on the road against teams that have had notable wins already. Jacksonville beat Virginia Tech by double digits on the road and North Florida opened the season with wins at South Carolina and Georgia Tech.

If PJ is out for awhile we really need House to step up and he did in the second half. We have proved vulnerable to sticky, tough man to man defensive pressure and we can count on it for the rest of the season.
