SS makes a good point tht we don't have the expereinced go-to-guy as the other teams do, but we won close games early in the year with the same line-up. Our go to guy was Terrance Todd and he did make some big shots and plays early in the season. However we really can't expect a Frosh to do that every game.

Even though people might not want to hear it, but Kudjo has probably been our second biggest go-to-guy, and Delfico third. Kudjo and Delfico have really hit some key shots all year..... maybe not the last shot of the game, but very big shots. I think the ball needs to be in Todd's hads at the end of the game.

Joe, we won close games early in the year for one reason and one reason only. We used ten players and this fatigued our opponents to such an extent that many of them became walking zombies by the end of the game.
Another point: I often feel more confident playing an out-of-conference opponent then confronting teams in our league. OOC squads do not seem to prepare for us with the same dedication as MAAC squads because these teams know so little about us. In contrast league coaches know our players as well as our coaches do(maybe better?). They know exactly what strategy to employ to counteract our strengths. If you beat them the first time, they are ready for you on the next occasion. That's why it is a constant chess match each time a MAAC game occurs. The coaches who are most successful in our league are those who can adapt from game to game . I am not sure that TOT has learned how to do this yet. We can only hope.
