Massey makes Lehigh an 8 point favorite (78-71) and gives he Mountainhawks a 78% chance for the win. I don't think I will ever see HC again have such a half as they had in the first half against Lehigh in game 1. The second half, well that might be repeated. Lehigh has been swept in regular season by both Bucknell and Colgate, but that have beaten all other PL opponents (11-4 so far in the PL, 18-8 overall). (Thanks, KY)

We are a good shooting team. Lehigh is a great shooting team. Only Gonzaga and South Dakota State have a higher EFG.
They are also the best three-point shooting team in the country, and shredded Holy Cross' TPL in the first meeting, going 15-33 deep. On the season, they have taken 38% of their shots from beyond the arc; against Holy Cross, 51% of their attempts were threes.

We certainly didn't have problems scoring against them, either. Crusaders shot a season high 65.6% in the first meeting, tallying a season high 94 points.

One item of note is that LU's SF Caleb Bennett, who played about 20 mpg off the bench, is reportedly out for the season with a knee injury. LU's bench has become very thin.

You mean like Holy Cross’?

You mean like Holy Cross’? Depends on how you define it. LU's top two subs, based on mpg, are both out for the year.

Any word whether BC will be coaching? I haven't heard, but he was at Lafayette which is practically next door. Even if the team goes the night before, it's not a horrible day trip for the coach

Any word whether BC will be coaching? I would think it has to do when his wife has her treatments scheduled....I believe they are on Fridays...(I went through some treatments and they were every 3 weeks, but everybody's treatments are different)

With the results of the two games today, we’re in sole possession of last place - but holding firmly to the fourth best RPI.
Go figure.

So why exactly is this game on Sunday, it isn't on CBS.
And I'm correct in assuming they are planning on busing to Hamilton directly?
