Leatherneck Nation

I have the pleasure of going to this one tonight. Will try to capture a few pictures. No predictions from me other than "It won't be easy". This is kind of game you hope the guys are nice and relaxed for, just go out and have some fun. If they were fortunate to see a few of the sites around the "Historic Triangle" like I was the past three days, they should be in a good mood to pull of an upset.

I've been pretty positive about this team so far this season, but wow, this looks like a Derek Thomas team today. Down by 33 at Half!

Men vs boys out there tonight

I will apologize if this team ends up in the sweet 16 or even round of 32... No way in H**L this should be THIS bad.

Am I reading that right....they haven't made a point since 10:29 left in the first half?

A 26-0 run by W&M?

Damn...that got outta hand fast.

We are getting schooled in pick and roll and give & go by these guys.

Man. losing by 30+ and Conde is 2-2 on free throws tonight & team is 8-8. Definitely bizarre world tonight.

This is what I was afraid of coming in to the season hopefully it is a 1 time event

William & Mary won the game 83-49.

After falling behind at the half 48-15, Western played them even in the 2nd half.

Western shot 15 for 56 (26.8%). Western was 12 for 12 on free throws.

Attendance at William & Mary was 1,913.

W&M picked to finish 2nd this year in CAA. Perennial powers VCU, ODU, and George Mason moving out of CAA was the best thing to happen to them. Their offense did look very impressive. If they kept their starting five on the bench, this would have been a competitive game. I can only remember two easy buckets for us within 10 feet of basket. Everything else was a forced shot or very long distance. Highlight of this one was the W&M female cheerleader playing the National Anthem on a violin before the game. That's about how it looked from the mezzanine section behind our bench.
