Scrub is bringing Sabremetrics to D2 basketball
I have read interviews with WL coach Ben Holand. They keep stats in practice down to the minute. True story.
It obviously helps them. WL is an elite program.

Sometimes those stats depend upon number of possessions (i.e., in the up-tempo MEC, one of the philosophies is to play fast and increase the number of possessions in the game). In doing so, it becomes entirely possible to earn 30 points on bonus bombs but still have enough empty possessions to lose by 14. That's why Columbuseer always likes to look at points-per-possession as his stat of choice. It helps to look across conferences and compare an up-tempo team to a methodical team reasonably effectively.

One thing I will never agree with is not starting seniors on senior night. I dont care if they are walkons who have played 2 mins their entire career or a notorious 6th man. It will not affect the outcome of the game IF the coach plays it right. If you're starting 3 different players than usual then you obviously are not going to expect them to do exactly what your normal starters do. Play it to the strength of those guys that have earned it.. give them 2 minutes if you get down. That's enough to give them what they've earned. Worst case you're down a few points when the starters come in. I'm sorry if they cant overcome a small deficit strong chance is you were going to lose anyways.
Now, different story for that is if it's a one or two year player. I dont feel it's as obligatory for them to get a start on Senior night. If the coach feels they should then great, but the 3&4 year players.. definitely should.

Originally posted by WarriorVoice View PostMeanwhile, ESU has won 8 straight, and are looking more deserving of regional consideration.

They also hit 10 3-pointers for the 11th time this year. They're 10-1 when that happens...

Raiders are still just a tick off offensively. Just enough that keeps some suspense in games they were winning by 20 earlier.

Couple of upsets in the MEC tonight:
Concord 89. WVSU 75.
Urbana 74. Wheeling 67.
Charleston avoids the near-upset with a one-point victory over Glenville.
Everything else chalk.
