Champaign and Assembly Hall have been a hall of horrors for most hawk bball teams as most of you know.
Clemmons and Gesell with 18 pts (17 pt per game avg duo) were dead even with Nunn and Hill 20 pts even though Nunn and Hill avg about 35 pts per game or twice as many per game. Great to see Gesell wait for his 15-17 foot elbow shot off the dribble and he and Clemmons both had some drives that just didnt quite go down.
So great defense by Clemmons and Gesell and the whole team.
Woodbury was great on the glass and is really starting to show some moves like a drop step around the hoop.
And Jok and Uhtoff were awesome although Jarrod didnt even look like he shot that well. Great to see the hawks win by double digits when they didnt seem to have their best offensive game.
Second chance points were 26-6 hawks which just indicates hustle.
I still have to say that going into the semi-stall on the offensive end with little movement and Gesell dribbing out 15-18 seconds out by half court is not great. Or lets say maybe dont start to do it with 3:30 left in the game.
The hawks ran some good plays off of a 3 man weave in the last 10 minutes of the second half which might be their best way to run some clock and look for a layup when the other team over plays.
What accolades and observations did I miss?
