Concord isn't a bad team. There was one stretch it seemed Joe was going to run them out of the building and go up 30+ but they ended up holding steady around the 20-22 margin. Both teams emptied the bench the final 3-4 minutes. IUP got off to a great start ... opened up on a 15-2 run. Concord never really got back in it. Concord did lose to a solid UPJ in OT the night before so I was expecting a tighter game. Joe gave Demo a light night. He only played 21 minutes. I think they wanted to rest him some once they got up big. Diop got nearly 20 mins. Diop creates some havoc. He's really quick for being 6'10".
May got T'd up again (as he did here in 2018). He's the most animated coach to come here since Kevin Reynolds. Much bigger test Tuesday with Le Moyne visiting.

Observations from the stats:
1) 18 turnovers (Foster/Demo 11 combined) not good.
2) Demo posted a large double double 16-15
3) Radford perfect from the floor but I'm sure his D sucked still.
4) 10 total fouls which is very low.
5) 11-17 from the line... not spectacular
6) Joe went a legit 9 deep...
7) Polce first off the bench... unexpected
Radford is better live than on the screen. He's a nice player.
Joe got that early lead then emptied the bench. Odd. But, it kept WVW in game.
As far as opening nights go ... about what you'd expect. Not great. Not awful.
WVW came with a with a lot of fight.
First game was an OT thriller.
Crowd sucked. Very small. Spirited, but small.
Demo was a stat machine. Souliman (sp) is a beast.
Better be a lot cleaner tomorrow.

Quick look at tonight's opponent (West Virginia Wesleyan):
* Went 0-14 last year -- lost a ton of close, single-digit games.
* Top 5 scorers from that team are all gone
* Picked last in the MEC preseason poll
* Not much size on the roster
* New coach is Derek Sloan. He was on staff the previous two years after wrapping up his playing career at Cleveland State
* Sloan said in a preseason interview that the focus has been largely on defense
* IUP has won the past two in the series (2014 & 2019)
And, of course, this is the prototype team that comes in here and plays well. LOL. Seen it happen so many times.
On the IUP front, it seems they are in good health with the exception of Tommy Demogerontas. He's said to be questionable (shoulder) for the weekend. They will need him more tomorrow as Concord has some nice size under the basket.

From today's Gazette article:
* Demo is questionable for tomorrow with a shoulder injury
* Diop was not mentioned in the 8-man rotation plans. Rather, Polce was. It will still be a nice luxury to have the 6'10" Diop in spurts when needed.
