Bit of a rough end to the half

Rabinovich hopefully adapts to the speed of D1 basketball quickly because he's currently a step too slow everywhere.
Disappointing last couple of minutes.

Let's make sure we lead by 10 or more at the half- no let down Nope-- lead cut to 5.

Gates with 15 points on 5-9 FG, 5-6 FT. No other Crusader got to the line.
Butler with 12p and a game high 6 rebounds.

Inauspicious debut for the WA duo - No idea what Martindale can/can't do, he was out of there so fast. The other guy was real shaky. As in previous seasons, keeping Faw in the ballgame is still a priority.

Is that the way you pronounce Rabinovich? "oh vich", not "uh vich" They’re struggling with the name. He seems a bit stiff out there thus far...Gates on the other hand has got all the tools for immediate success in the PL

Holy Cross shot 56% from the field, 38% from three.

Gates with great use of the body to seal off the defender and get to the line again. he has been very impressive. appears to have been a great get by nelson and crew.

Yep. I saw mine as they panned at the end of the half. (Cutout is not of me, but an historical figure.)

Found a dog or two, but not mine. Sent it in kind of late, might not even be out there yet.

butler has been an excellent rebounder throughout his career. now that he is fully (?) healthy, expect him to clean up on the glass even more.

Very encouraged by the first half of the year. Lots of guys looked good with Butler, Gates and Wade looking really good. Rabinovich not quite ready yet. Team was very active defensively.

A good half...Did we score 44 points in any half last season? I like the depth, it will make a difference all season long as Coach Nelson sticks with it, and doesn't loose faith in his guys...Nice to see the team attack the rim, playing with a great of confidence..The freshman are looking good, the WA kids will be ok as the season moves on...Nice to see the team shoot the ball without thinking! 2bd half.......Have to clean up on the D boards...keep attacking...play with energy!!

Gates must stay on the floor in the 2nd half - he makes a big difference at both ends of the court

I'm not sure why Walter Whyte is out (maybe he refuses to wear a mask?), but we are certainly benefiting from that. He's their best player.

Better than I expected. .. frosh mistakes cost us several points... we should be up by a dozen or more... outlook looks 👍... Also saw our 2 cardboard cutouts!!!! We need to get this "W"!!!!!!!
Only complaint is that they need to do something with the audio. Not loud enough when game is on and then blasts when they go to a commercial!!!

Certainly room for improvement, but tough to expect a better first half of basketball for this season than that.
All returners look much improved, and newcomers look very impressive for their first half of D1 basketball.
