That was a game we should have won. First time in a while the kids looked flustered at the end of a game in a while

Good news though...Boston University is only up 1 at Colgate in the third. They can still lose too

And we can own that we didn't coach it well. You take the good with the bad. If we want kids to be accountable for those missed free throws then we can look at everyone.

Great effort. Lehigh hit their clutch shots. Bloom is off the rose for HC-BU game. I'll take 16-4 from any HC team. Big weekend ahead. Put this game in the rear view window.

Feel like they lost this game at the free throw line, 6/12 vs 11/12

Kramer hit big shots at end of 4Q and again in OT. You just don't let her take those shots. This is a loss that we are going to wish we had back at the end.

On our possession with 4.5 secs left in reg (the refs gave us another sec) I really don’t understand the play to BPC - that type of lob play is used when you have 1-2 seconds left and you need to score imme - we had time to inbound the ball and make a pass or two That was a heckuva game tho - sorry that the no.1 offensive team was better than the no.1 defensive team on this night

McCormick to the line - 11 sec left Inexcusable that the refs took almost 4 minutes to check if the clock was correct (it was, 11.2 seconds left) before allowing McCormack to take free throws (she missed first one badly). Lehigh did not have to take a time out to "freeze the shooter" because the refs did it for them.

My rants after that game:
1. Referring to nd's post above: Terrible officiating. There has to be a better, more efficient way to determine clock discrepancies, at some point it becomes completely out of whack with what decision is being made. 2. Strategy wise, did not like the decision, most certainly made by the bench; to sag off #1 so much. Trying to solve one problem (the quickness of #1, I guess), they created another one by cluttering up the lane. Tough enough fighting through opponents' picks w/o having to fight through picks that are caused by your own guys. 3. When HC had the ball, up 1 and something like 1:08 left; also wasn't thrilled with the way they ran their offense. Understand they are trying to kill some of the clock; but I think after about 15 seconds, you GO. Ended up w/a drive to the hoop and a blocked shot which became a 30 second violation. If it happens earlier, HC gets the rebound and another 20 seconds. My point is: you have to score there to be in a better position to win. Whether Lehigh has 50-55 seconds to do something or around 40 is irrelevant.
But, overall, it was a great ballgame to watch. In the end, Lehigh knocked down shots with the game on the line.

I do not know if it would be different, but points per game is not the best way to measure either defensive or offensive effectiveness Effective percentage is considered far more accurate
