Nice having bench players provide 31 of 91 points. Akoi Akoi is showing much potential as is Alex Distras. Veron Eze can quickly slash his way to the basket. Zac Johnson has a big upside; we know he can shoot as with the rest of these young men their defensive play will have to mature. Too bad big man Angelo Winkel is injured.

Distras has to keep getting minutes as long as he's not a catastrophe on defense. He brings a pace to the offense that Jamo just can't replicate.
No matter what this game vs USF on Thursday is going to be hideous. Two teams that can't score throwing rocks combined with the heightened emotions of Cartwright vs Augie.....can't wait.

Coach Billeter was happy with improved shooting of team and overall effort of squad. Don't feel bad about AU victory over Doane by 10 points after seeing they beat Wayne 76-72. Another double-double for Tyler, nice win for Augustana,

First half last night against Doane was rough. Hopefully we start better tonight against Grand View. Would love to see us actually get up big and give some of these bench guys who haven't gotten a lot of minutes a chance to get in and start showing they deserve more PT. We can't rely on our starters and 1-2 bench guys this entire season, especially with how tough the NSIC has been looking in these non-conference match-ups.

Augie beats Doane by 10 after being down 10 at half. Second half was much better than the first. Alex Distras provided a nice boost of life to the offense.

Vikings have the 3-point flu resulting in 0-10 from behind the arc. Doane quite tall for an NAIA team.

The offensive deficiencies of this Augie team given their talent level are astounding. The ball gets sticky, the off ball movement grinds to a halt, and hardly anyone can make a jump shot or beat their man off the dribble to create an open shot for someone else. Tom is gonna need to dig deep into the bag to fix this one.

I really like my first looks at Akoi Akoi. Extremely solid defensively for a freshmen and can guard a lot of different players. Keeps the offense moving with and without the ball. The FT stroke looks good, he even shot two tech FTs, so I would assume the outside shots will fall.

Originally posted by Blue Ridge Viking View PostAugie is 3-0, so this may be nitpicking. But the Vikings are getting nothing off the bench.
With the exception of Bennett Otto, these guys look afraid to shoot. I guess that's what the non-conference season is for -- give them some confidence in live action.
