MU And The Big East Tourney


MU struggled, but won, the JV portion (Seton Hall) of the Big East Tourney last night. It wasn't pretty, ugly at times, but the Gold pulled it out thanks in large part to getting to the line 35 times. Only made 20, but MU was pounding the glass like a young Buck Williams. Hayward (15-10) and McNeal (Great D, 21 pts) lead the way. Lawrence Blackledge is not a good free throw shooter.

Up next is those hated Irish, who have a nice little team. They can score inside, outside, slow, or fast. Look for an entertaining ballgame in the high 70s-low 80s. A welcome reprieve in the traditionally grind-it-out Big East Tournament.
