Not Augie's best performance against USF. Would imagine some of the heretofore non-existent (on the basketball side) USF fans will be jumping on to express their excitement and optimism for the season. Whether or not that excitement is merited remains to be seen, as they are pretty frequently disappointed as they reach the tail end of the season.

Six games had passed since the Cougars had bested the Vikings. Tonight, the experienced USF squad won 80-59, Augie's women won by 35. Without Dylan LeBrun harassing Matt Cartwright he put up 22 points. Coach Billeter was surprisingly upbeat and was happy the way two of his true freshmen played in Sam Rensch and Jackson Loge.

Wolves dying by the three as well. Minot has been aggressive taking it in and hitting virtually all of their open threes. Wolves have literally done nothing inside and just take the first three they can and they are not falling. Wolves down 15 with six minutes to go.

Mankato is living by the 3 and UIU is dying by the 3 today.

ha. I’d be surprised if any of them give more than zero F’s about what fans say here :) What I meant was, even though you guys had said you were missing size, I was still shocked at how little the lineup was. I should have known from all the noise previously…

Even with all the clamoring for a big the Winona fans have done on here the past few years, I was still surprised how ‘little’ their lineup was/is. Scrappy for sure, and fun to watch. They lead 18-5 with 12:00 to go in the first half. But you’re right, scrappy doesn’t quite finish out games and their lack of any size ends up hurting.
Of course, they’ll have nights when the shoot 50%+ from 3 and blow teams out. But that’ll be the exception.

Here's the kicker.....opening tip is scheduled for 11:30 am Monday. Heard there have been discussions about letting elementary school kids in for free. Would likely make for a unique environment, and probably a nice free advertisement for the team to get additional interest in Mini Mustangs program.

Mankato is the better team. Winona had them back on their heals early but the game is as much a marathon as a sprint. Sort of followed the format of the Upper Iowa game.except it took UI until the last shot to overcome a large deficit. Winona is just too undersized. Only put one player exhibiting any resemblance to a big on the floor at any given time, with rest being short guards. Luke Martens, at 6’4”, punches above his weight but still. The guards are scrappy and talented but it’s not enough. Looks to me like .500 or a little better on the year. More mediocrity in the Eisner/Malvik era.
