There's 2 minutes left in the game and Hampton leads Manhattan by 7.

1:30 to play and Hampton is up 7

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 08:51 PM:

Make that 9 points!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 08:52 PM:

Hampton plays a 4 guard line up!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 08:54 PM:

7 point game with 52 seconds left!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 08:55 PM:

Chievous and Johnson both lead Hampton in scoring with 15 points!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 08:55 PM:

Hampton has shot 3-7 from three point land!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 08:56 PM:

Hampton has hit 15-30 from the free throw line too!

Posted by SCWC (Member # 2464) on 03-17-2015, 08:57 PM:

We will kill them if we really want too.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 09:00 PM:

They don't have any size

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 09:01 PM:

Hampton shooting 49 percent from the floor

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 09:02 PM:

Hampton won by 10

Posted by CatFanInYankeeville (Member # 2025) on 03-17-2015, 09:02 PM:

I wish Manhattan could have won, I always thought Masiello was a good kid when he played for us. Either way, if Hampton OR Manhattan would have given us trouble, we surely don't deserve a #1 overall seed.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 09:03 PM:

They had 20 assist on 26 baskets

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 09:08 PM:

Looks like Hampton has 1 player 6'10 or bigger!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 09:09 PM:

Johnson is a 6'2" guard!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 09:10 PM:

Chievous is a 6'6" guard!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 09:12 PM:

Hampton does have 4 players averaging in double figures, and a fifth player with 9.7 points per game!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 09:14 PM:

Meikle leads the Pirates in rebounding at 7.5/game

Posted by Old Norm (Member # 1482) on 03-17-2015, 09:17 PM:

They have never went up against a defense like ours. I just hope none of our boys get hurt. That is my only worry, going into this game. If Cal so desired, we could beat them by at least 30. I'll be interested in seeing the Vegas spread.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 10:10 PM:

Hampton's record is 17-17!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 10:12 PM:

Hampton lost to Iowa 90-56 and to 65-47.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 10:15 PM:

The only other team they played in a recognizable conference was Illinois and lost 73-55.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 10:18 PM:

There best run of games was in the MEAC tournament where they won 4 games in a row and the right to play Manhattan.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 10:21 PM:

They were 5-11 in road games.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 10:30 PM:

I keep looking but as of just a few minutes ago there is still no line on the game for Thursday!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 10:31 PM:

I like our chances. [Smile]

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 10:36 PM:

I'm guessing 25+

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 10:40 PM:

28 is my guess.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 03-17-2015, 10:42 PM:

The final depends solely on how quickly Cal sends in the walk ons.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 10:46 PM:

The subs will be in early and often.

Posted by Old Norm (Member # 1482) on 03-17-2015, 10:53 PM:

They should be. No point in risking unnecessary injury to the starters. At least Willis. Floreal and Hawkins should get some minutes.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 11:05 PM:

Hawkins has started 9 games for the Cats this season.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 11:28 PM:

It will be good to see all of them get some playing time.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 11:31 PM:

Floreal has played in 11 games for a total of 18 minutes.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 11:32 PM:

Willis has played in 16 games for a total of 72 minutes.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 11:33 PM:

Lanter has played in 6 games for a total of 7 minutes.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 11:36 PM:

Long has played in 8 games for a total of 14 minutes.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 11:38 PM:

Hawkins has played in 21 games for 158 minutes and always played well.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 11:41 PM:

Lanter shot one time all year and made a 3 point basket which will be something he will never forget.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-17-2015, 11:46 PM:

Hopefully all the subs will get in the game against Manhattan. It would be great if they could all score but Floreal and Long for sure as they are the only players who haven't scored this season.

Posted by SCWC (Member # 2464) on 03-18-2015, 09:52 AM:

Hampton upset Manhattan so hopefully it will now be against Hampton. I don't expect to see the walk ons in any of these tournament games myself.
