How long for Lowder to catch on to the culture?

At the under twelve, HC 16-13 . . . Holy Cross continues to play zone. And with no PG, we have committed just one TO.

Nelson has made three major adjustments - slow down the offense, play zone, and go without a PG. Very encouraging, imho, that the coach is willing to go outside his comfort zone (so to speak).

Is it possible that Lowder has gotten a 1.5 game suspension? See him in 2nd half?

Lowder available, but LeSann has come in to handle point duties.

Really respect what Nelson is doing here today.

Looks like a big crowd. Considering they are a 4-5 team, they must have strong supporters.

Siena has solved the zone, but still really like the fact that Nelson is willing to try something different than what has obviously not worked well to date.

It seems our basketball team within each game is a microcosm of the men's hockey season. That is, start out pretty well and then quickly fade.

Hoping that RWade is starting to ramp up a little...
Camper is very improved over last year.

43-29 Saints. Looks like we are on the brink of another rout.

Indeed, changing to zone was obviously overdue... but they're about to give up 50 pts in a first half again. Different isn't necessarily better.
The Lowder situation is the elephant in the room at this point.

45-37 at half. Credit to HC for not letting it get out of control when it could have.

Obviously, though, we have a problem.

Let's see if Lowder plays in the 2nd half and, if so, will it make a difference?

Seems very ominous. I know he was hurt in there, but he's played less than 60 minutes in the month of December.
