Looks like Witthus is out with an ankle injury.
These Minot State commentators are as prepared as a 4th grader who's about to take a calculus test.
NSU women survived over Bemidji. Had a 44-21 lead before half but let the Beavers go on a 17-0 run or something like that before halftime. Ristau and Conrad with big games.
Winona up 45-29 at half. Go figure.
Doesn't hurt that Mankato's (arguably) best all-around player is out.
Winona's too. Bambenek twisted his ankle. Unsustainable shooting 76.9%. I see Crookston is up Moorhead by eight at half.
Crazy contested 3 pointer good for Moorhead. Puts them up one with less than a second left.
Unbelievable make from Ayob. Twice now this season Moorhead has won on near-miracle 3-point buzzer beaters. Golden Eagles had their chance but missed a free throw to push the lead to 3 and Moorhead took advantage.
I could not take it any longer listening to the voices of the Beavers and switched to the radio to listen to Jeff Fylling.
This game was truly ugly on the part of the Mavs. Warriors had the upper hand from the opening tip. Started bad and never got any better. A case of Preparation H wouldn't stop all the butthurt.
Mustangs took a while to heat up. Started the game 3-17 (18%) shooting, but then made 27-47 (57%) from then on to win comfortably.
Very poor showing by MSU men last night. Hopefully Witthus can return to action soon, which may help the team do better than 500 the rest of the season. I had hoped the Mavs might contend in the conference this season, but I am very doubtful about that now.
One of my former students at Nicollet, Mark Dorn, is in the Air Force and his wife is another classmate who I taught. Mark helped meet and greet a USO tour which included Scarlett Johansson.
John, this is for you. After the decisive Winona win last night- you deserve it.
Southwest fans, how far from Jackpot Junction to Marshall?
If you go on Highway 23 towards Granite Falls, Prairie's Edge is 27 miles from Southwest.
I figured that would put a smile on your face. I know it put one on mine.
If not for the clarifier I would have suspected Scarlett Johansson and Jim Carey had hooked up.
As good as Winona looked Mankato looked equally as bad. Hard to beat a team that shoots 72% but the general disregard for defense on the losers part had something to do with that. Winona scored 50 points in the paint whereas last week it was all about jacking up threes. Dominated in all categories but free throw percentage. Gray was unstoppable with his cache of drives and acrobatic layups. He is uncanny for an ability to put up and make shots over bigs. Many can go to the rim and not finish. He is a finisher.
Winona went small for a long stretch as several guys had three fouls. Didn't matter. I expect their short bench will raise an ugly head somewhere along the line. Was even shorter last night as Koonz was out and then Bambanek got hurt at the end of the first half. Looked like an ankle sprain but paper said knee. He played some in the second half but not much.
