I just touched down in Lunken from my scouting assignment of Le Moyne. Full write-up is coming for premium members only.

Tennessee Rainwater

Easily in the Top 10 of names in college basketball this year. We have one also in All Wright.

Local kid from Centerville playing for Lemoyne, Greensburg. Let's hope for better play out of Anderson and Filip, who makes Ciani seem like Dirk.

X seems to like to start slow 7-3 the other guys lead

[muskieman]

until Pop hit that three-pointer, the Dolphins had one player with more points than X had total points.

Turnovers and fouls are the biggest problems for X. Dolpins, shooting 66%

[muskieman]

Well, X's three-pointers are dropping, and the D is swarming. Assists leading to threes and almost everyone has one

Turn it on in the second half... Dan

X wins 74-69 but couldn't put them away, losing the second half by 2 33-31 Trent Mosquera 20 pts and 6 rebounds for LeMoyne Spread was 25. Dolphins won the best name game with Shilo Jackson and Tennessee Rainwater
Bench points for X 30

[Kevin Reilly]

Well another win but not a impressive effort. Anderson and Borovicanin played well but we need to pick it up.. We have very little if any quickness. I think teams will start to press the 3 point shooters because our front court guys struggle to finish. Hopefully Pozzato and Panoam come back soon and provide some speed to the line up. I would also like to see N'Diaye get more time
