YSU Penguin Athletics / Re: Horizon league tournament

« on: March 04, 2014, 09:15:22 PM »

I was waiting for a play like that especially since Oakland called a time out.  If slocum didn't instruct them about this then it's on him.   I saw Bobby Knight run a play against OSU about 20 yrs ago.  Freeking unbelievable!

Halftime. YSU down at Oakland 29-25.  Not too bad since we were 7 of 24 from the field.

Slocum had a problem at the 4 position this year.   Belin did not produce the scoring and rebounding and his play was better last season than his senior year.  He fell in love with the 3 ball which he jacked up too unsuccessful rather than being a post banger that YSU needed this season.    Next season with the exception of Hain YSU will have the same problem since no one on the roster has the build to help on the low post.   Not sure if there are any more scholarships left but we really need a big from the JUCOS that can step in and help Hain.

 CSU lived at the line in ot.  YSU was not going to get a call there.     This must be about the 4th game on the road that we were right there but not good enough.     Great battle and hopefully we can have some luck(calls) in the Hor tourney.

Halftime an we're down 27-19.   19 points for a D1 team at home is about as bad as it gets.    6 of 28 from the field and 0 for 9 from three.    Out rebounded 18 to 11 to a team that hasn't won a game in league play.

Tough loss,but Penguins battled.  Hopefully this doesn't turn into another pile on Slocum thread.  He had a masterful play after a time out that led to a three to send the game into O.T.   KP had a bad last minute and a half with turnover,foul and a missed foul shot.ftp://

I still can't believe how small the crowds are.   I remember in the 70s Beeghley was SRO for freaking Gannon.

You could put this down as a rumor.   I was told that Auggie Amone of Dr.Phillips HS Orlando fl might verbal to the Penguins.  Strong side DE in HS.

YSU achilles heel is size in the paint.   Hain's 6-10 but he's more of an offensive threat than a defense enforcer.  real excited about Keene's  20 pts against UMass on the road is impressive.  Going to be tough to repeat last seasons(which wasn't real awesome)  record unless one or two guys really step up whose name isn't Kendrick.
