Massey has Lehigh a 3 point favorite (71-69) with a 57% chance for the win.
I hope everyone stays healthy!

HC is 29-10 all-time vs. Lehigh at the Hart Center including 8-7 in the “dark ages” from 2010 to date.
I think HC has a slight edge for Wednesday’s game based on that history and having Dr. Brett on the sidelines. The 2020 Lehigh game was a 96-95 HC OT win after HC came back from a 15+ point second half deficit, one of only 3 HC wins that year.

Let's put the nail in the coffin during regulation on Wednesday. |

They didn't point out that HC only dresses 8 scholarship players, which I think is just one over the minimum. OT is not HC's friend |

If the team wants to seriously contend for a top-5 finish, they really need this game.
Hearing there might be some kind of weather event here Wednesday night into Thursday (on top of what's coming tonight).

Hearing there might be some kind of weather event here Wednesday night into Thursday (on top of what's coming tonight). Looks like Wednesday's game is being billed as Summer in January. With students back on campus, I hope they promote the heck out of it to them and though unlikely to get a tsunami of students, perhaps we'll get a moderate storm surge of students with whatever weather comes in and see both ends close to filled. |

What if students need to walk ALL THE WAY up the hill to get to the game?  |

Harder part is getting back down the hill after the game since Kimball did away with trays

When we had a place in VT I was always impressed by the way they cleared snow from the roads in and around Wilmington, even after big storms. BUT, I also asked how they coped with ice on the roads (since they avoided using salt to keep the water clear). The answer..."We stay home until it melts." |

Game 1 vs Lehigh was our worst PL game.
Gates came out and was unstoppable. Like 12 of our first 15.
Bo, Octave and Kenney played their worst games.
Batch was ice cold, then got real hot for a few minutes and then Gates got cold.
I’m feeling good about tonight. Would like to see some balanced scoring early and let Gates take over late.

As the color guy has said, Gates should touch the ball on every possession.
Not necessarily to shoot, but he is our best passer also.
