The Lions' Pride

I missed the first NW game (not that I can say I'm disappointed), but this is actually a decent shot at a win tonight despite being on the road and the prior result.

Newbill gets steal on NW's first possession and bounces in floater after Sasa offensive rebound.

Took Lions 11 minutes to score first point at Minnesota. Took about a minute to get first basket tonight.

Marshall 3 makes it 5-0.

Wildcats with three turnovers on four possessions. Not a great Senior Night start for the hosts.

Newbill with open-court dunk after yet another turnover, then Travis draws foul after another turnover.

7-0 Lions with Travis headed to line, 16:08 left in first.

Lions moving ball well vs. NW zone.

Marshall gets open 3. 12-0, five minutes gone.

12-3. Abrahamson breaks drought with three, but Colella hits another three.

15-3, Penn State.

Wildcats coming back. 15-8. Penn State's insistence to feed Sasa leads to back-to-back turnovers.

Marcotullio hits open 3 as Lions get lost in transition.

15-14, Chambers will take a smart timeout.

So much for that...although he did score!!

Great hustle play by Coletta and Taylor. Bench went nuts!!

Colella three after drive and dish from Newbill

25-19 Penn State, under 8 left to go in half.

Ball gets stuck on the rim on three point attempt by NW. Both team in a zone so far. Looks like a high school game. Up 25-19

playing "well" is relative for this team.
