First of all, what is a Bucknell? I am just not real sure.
Well, it appears the coaching staff must have read my last post game report because we were greatly improved on the free throw defense only yielding a 33% rate. Additionally, we missed a few more shots which significantly improved our offensive rebounding. I mean, you can’t be a great offensive rebounding team when you make all your shots. Nice to see we are getting better each game.
Next up, Duke. My expectations aren’t high, but I am hopeful we can make it fun.

What worries me against Duke is our defensive ability, and rebounding. It hasn't been exposed yet, but I feel our interior defense could be a problem against top competition like Duke, and our lack of boxing out. I feel we've gotten away with some mediocre rebounding to this point against lower competition. I'm hoping we just keep it close and show a lot of fight.

Hopefully we will be red hot shooting the ball Tuesday against puke. Coach Pope was very pleased with the rebounding he said each 4 and 5 players all had 3 each offensive rebounds.

I agree about the rebounding but not too sure about the free throw defense. They improved bit didn't have one block

That’s a good point. I’ll have to contact ESPN and see if I can get them to include free throw blocks in the post game stats from now on.
