Lehigh-Lafayette-Men's
Wow...the season gets off to a roaring start with 2 OT victories today (men's and Women's)
Some thoughts:
1.) Lehigh started off slowly but appeared to make adjustments at half time. M. Wilson brought back memories of his freshman year (I think)
2.) Alamuden has made a case in the early going for getting some substantial minutes.
3.) I think Lynch will flourish getting an increased work load. Parolin has all the makings of a solid substitute or a a complementary big when needed.
4.) I think we really need to figure out the PG position.
5.) The biggest point....foul shooting nearly cost us the game. We need to get better.
But then again, it's only one game and it's sure nice to be able to talk about Lehigh basketball again.

On target TMH.
Wow ...
Let's hope these guys can keep together as the competition gets tougher. Certainly was an impressive first game.

Re: Lehigh-Lafayette-Men's
Exhausted by 2 OT games.
Sinclair looked decent at PG. A big change forvus. We took 8 3pt shots for the game. Pards seem to be a 2 player squad. Competition will get tougher I think.

Re: Lehigh-Lafayette-Men's
I think the competition will be about the same for our next game
It will be interesting to see what adjustments the coaches will make between today and tomorrow. Lehigh will need to find a way to slow down Jaworski and Stephens.

Re: Lehigh-Lafayette-Men's
Wow is the word.....Alamudun was the biggest surprise to me. And I do agree point is a question. A bit sluggish with Betlow there. Sinclair’s cameo showed flashes, promise and freshman jitters/mistakes. But impressed with team's overall composure that kept us within hailing distance early. Gave us a chance to get even, and then get lucky.
Just saw replay of “the shot” during half time report on West Virginia-Oklahoma ESPN2. If we hit some free throws tomorrow we might have a chance again.....

Around the league
OK, Navy's win over Bucknell is not a huge surprise for me. Navy already had 4 games under their belt this year including a win over a weaker Georgetown team. They also return almost all of their fire power from last year.
The beating Colgate put on Army was not on my radar at all though. Army also had the advantage of playing 5 OOC games where they went 4-1 including a win over LaSalle. I don't think anyone expected a 101-57 thrashing.

Re: Lehigh-Lafayette-Men's
very impressed with Alamudun, looked way better than last year, coach needs to get these guys to play some D though, Parolin looked very poised and comfortable, Lynch picked up where he left of last year, gonna need M Wilson to play point me thinks unless one of the FR starts to shine, guess that was Tan on crutches, anyway a great win, tomorrow might be a bit harder in Easton, gonna need a little more scoring balance from Fenton and Taylor
Re: Lehigh-Lafayette-Men's
Sure, people will remember this one by recounting Wilson's bomb to win it all with .1 seconds remaining, but may hat goes off to Soph. Jacob Alamudun - my star of the game. He played a "possessed" 31 minutes, seemingly blunting every Leopard run while knocking down 6 of 7 from the field and snagging a team high 11 boards. His 13 points marked a career high in D-1 play. As a freshman, Jacob's end of year line read: 13.9 mpg / 4ppg / 2.4 rpg.
Now, if could only resolve our PG issues, hit more free throws, and stay free of injuries. Who knows.....
On to Easton for Game 2!

Halftime Report
Jaworski's baskets count for 3 points. Wilson's baskets count for 2.
Result Lafayette up by 4 at the half.
Does anyone know if J. Wilson is guarding Jaworski and if not..why?
