Shoutout to the team for a great effort. Also, to Danny Frey with the call that had me on the edge of my seat the entire 2nd half. Kind of like to know if the automatic foul was on the table during those last 10 seconds. In that regard, are we getting a Coach's radio show for basketball? Probably a little difficult to stage it with the additional games and travel during the week.
Embrace the pace of the race.

was at the game last night and it was a great comeback. Free throws hurt them, if they hit their free throws they win the game. Was very impressed with Patrick and Higginbotham. Think this team will be better than what I was thinking.

I gave up at half and was watching the Coastal vs liberty football game.

And I'm glad I did. Would have been a great comeback to watch, but the heartbreak at the end hurts.

Great game and effort. Should be a good season.

USD girls blew a big 1st half and dropped a close one in OT.

Western was 9 for 19 (47%) on free throws. Iowa was 15 for 19 (79%).
Western had 12 three-point baskets. Iowa had 5 with one of them being the game-tying points.
