Thanks Rick. From the Pitt Rivals site: This game featured a battle of two talented guards, with Pitt's Ashton Gibbs for Center Court and Duquesne's incoming freshman T.J. McConnell for The Lair going at each other all game..... McConnell came on strong in the second half, when he scored 13 of his 15 points in the win. "It's hard to guard a player with that kind of shooting ability, who's going to get a lot of screens and opportunities, but he played well," Brown said of McConnell's performance, "especially coming back at him in the second half." -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

What's up with our players ? Bobby Mo and Armpitt kids are there twice a week. Other than 4 or 5 of our players, we're usually no shows. Not a good sign for our team. Are our players in class on Monday and Wednesday nights ? Do they have small injuries ? Don't they feel like playing ? Would love to know the story behind their absence.

- I'm guessing it's because you actually have to study at Duquesne...lol...okay, just kidding, I have no idea but I don't really think it's a harbinger of anything. (NT) -- Slim, Thursday, July 08, 03:52:04pm
"who's going to get a lot of screens and opportunities"....I hope so, or else RE will have some splain'in to do (NT) -- Seen on Miltenberger St, Thursday, July 08, 10:45:10am
- Wondering if that quote was geared towards McConnell gurarding Gibbs (describing Gibbs as the one hard to guard) and Brown was saying McConnell held his own. (NT) -- Greg, Friday, July 09, 08:27:22am
  - Thanks for Pointing this out Greg. I glossed over this with about reading into it. This was in reference to GIBBS' shooting ability. (NT) -- WEB, Friday, July 09, 12:31:09pm
