Iup basketball

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Watched most of the second half of the IUP-Rock game. That turned out to be competitive and mostly fun to watch. The ESU-Millersville game was something of a disappointment.

The ending was almost identical to a game up there 3-4 years ago. That night it was Anthony Glover hitting the trey in the final seconds (just from the other wing).

Watching Armoni and Frankie Hughes battle all day was incredible.

I was impressed with SRU. They battled and hit massive shots all day..

I know they haven't looked like that consistently all year.. But, they were on today.

IUP gave up 15 treys today. That doesn't happen often. That needs fixed before Monday.

Of course, not sure SRU hits 15 of 36 on the road.


Talk about rising up ... that same Rock team lost at Clarion 72 hours ago.

How many Slippery Rock people does it take to get the clock right?

Odd it happens every trip there. Literally. Even more odd it happens on a big IUP run. Yearly.

I said before the game you are playing a hyped up team, a hyped up crowd and the scorers' table. They tried.

Sulaiman is nearing going all Ron Artest from the Malice at the Palace. Gotta get him to relax a bit and zone out the chatter.

What a crowd

What a crowd and what a physical game!

Normal score table shady crap and all ... Joe got the W

SRU's game preview was very clear regarding the mask policy: wear it or get ejected.

I still don't get why IUP didn't at least try this type of threat before pulling the plug ... not to mention they let the crap go on all year.

Taking a closer look at SRU prior to tomorrow's road trip:

Overall - 11-7
PCAC - 7-5
Home - 8-4
Away - 3-3

The Rock is 1-6 against perceived top-level opponents. They have a win against East Stroudsburg.

The losses in these games, however, have all been tight.
- Notre Dame (4 points in OT)
- Charleston 6 points
- UPJ - 4 points
- Mercyhurst - 7 points
- Millersville - 8 points
- California - 9 points

The trend in their season is it appears they rise up for the better teams. They've struggled with lesser teams such as Seton Hill, Edinboro, Bloomsburg, etc. Most recently, SRU lost at Clarion.

PPG - 82.9
Opponents PPG - 76.2
FG - 45%
3-PT - 31%
FT - 71%
Rebounding - +5 per game
TO - 11 per game
Steals - 7.8 per game
Blocks - 4.2 per game

Individually, they have (4) averaging double figures:

Frankie Hughes is a big (6'5"), athletic guard who is scoring 15.8 ppg and has taken 171 deep shots. The next closest teammate in attempts is at 75. He will launch from anywhere -- and from NBA range.

Tyler Frederick is a handful under the basket at 6'6" and 225 lbs. He is averaging 14.8 ppg and 9.5 rebounds.

Jonathan McFall is another big guard at 6'5" and is putting up 14.6 ppg

Amante Britt is a tough PG who has had some big games against IUP. He is scoring 12.5 ppg


IUP is 6-4 in its past 10 visits to Morrow Field House. IUP's two most recent wins up there came by a combined 6 points.

SRU is averaging about 200 per game in attendance this year (and most years). When IUP visits with students on campus, this game typically draws between 1,600 and 2,100. So, it will be quite the atmosphere tomorrow.

I wouldn't pay any attention to SRU losing at Clarion the other night -- in the same gym where Joe smoked the host by 34 points two weeks ago. Just a hunch they were already looking forward to tomorrow and simply got caught off-guard.

Play their typical tough D and the rest will fall in line!!!
