In some ways an ugly win, but the Paladins toughed it out. You have to win some like this. The word is out, this team can shoot the threes so a lot of teams are going to get in your faces and make you earn it.

Just need to learn to close it out without sweating. 9 point lead with 1.5 to go and score one point down the stretch. I’m sure CBR will not be happy with finish. Make free throws. Anyway sets up a Saturday matchup of unbeatens!! Way to go Paladins!!

Seattle plays what I think of as West Coast style. Physical, very athletic, and very aggressive rebounders. It is what John Wooden use to emphasize at UCLA and I think that style spread to other teams in the area. San Diego State gave us some of the same problems in the NCAAs,

Seattle has a lot of transfers, including several of their top players, and will probably keep improving as they get used to each other.

We only scored 10 points the last 11:21 and still won. Thank goodness that Seattle was offensively challenged, they only shot 26%. They stayed in the game with second chance points. Bowser with his best career game. Bronson showwd the potential he has.
