I dont have much hope of pulling off an upset at this point. a loss would tie us with Cleveland St for the most conference losses (12). right now if the season ended, we'd be in the 5-8 game against Northern Kentucky, which would be on Valpos side of the bracket.

Well, we better come out a lot better than we did against GB or it's not gonna be pretty.

I'll be looking for that opening play to Prahl down low for a nice bucket to start the game...Panthers seem to play a good game when that occurs.

Not a bad start. Peters is gonna be rough matchup all game. Nze continues to impress me.

Down 4 at half and I feel like we haven't even played that well.

The offense gets started too late in the shot clock every possession. Haas's aimless dribbling is a detriment to this offense.

If Cody shows up at all i'm thinking we win this game. Need the ball in Barne's hand more instead of Haas's. Like FTA said above, Haas just dribbling up top kind of kills the offense, reminds me exactly what would happen in past years.

Stull with 22 points, grabbed 9 rebounds. Going 8-12 from the field makes it all the more impressive. He really has turned himself into one of the best all around players in this conference.

"I was extremely proud of how we responded," LaVall Jordan said. "We had a heart-to-heart as a team, as a family and got real about the things that happened in the last outing. Nobody in the locker room was happy or pleased about that and they all knew we just got off the path for a moment. Give Valpo credit, they made the plays down the stretch to get the win. But our guys internally took a huge step today."
"Appreciate this group so much for responding the way they did," Jordan said. "Tough environment, you have these guys (Valparaiso) celebrating their seniors, so there was an atmosphere and our guys handled it with great maturity. I loved the way we came out and fought."

this was a moral victory, if there are such things. next year, we should be better and more competitive with the top teans in conference.
