SLU led 65-62 with 4:16 left, was outscored 16-4 the rest of the game. SLU starters played 188 of the 200 minutes. The SLU Bench played 12 minutes, took 1 shot, and did not score for the second consecutive game.

One wonders if too many minutes for both JImerson and Swope, both by necessity with the slim bench, are taking their toll.

Has anyone seen, and if so, post a link to the actual rule?

We need a Top 4 regular season finish to get the double bye in DC, which is critical with this depleted roster and no bench.

SLU was so out of gas it couldn’t get to Mason to foul on that last possession. That was a 76-74 overtime home court loss in a very winnable game. SLU falls to 14-11, 7-5.

SLU looks out of gas, which is understandable with no bench.

Overtime!

How could the zebra miss that?

Mason was on the line! No call. Unbelievable.

SLU 9-31 from 3, 29%.

Swope throwing up 30 footers is a turnover.

Mason, 34% 3 pt. shooting team for season, is 14-32 tonight, 44%, but a lot due to SLU letting Mason shoot. At halftime, Schertz said that was (per) the scouting report.

Down 7 at home, 9:45 left.

Newton has 27 points, is 8-12 from 3, with 12:15 left in the game.

Memo to Schertz: Guard Newton.

Halftime, evidently down 30-28. Bad stats: SLU has 8 TO’s, is 4-16 from 3. Good stat: SLU has outrebounded Mason 22-15.

These zebras are horrible, letting Mason get away with body checks on SLU ball handlers. Did these zebras mix up Mason with VCWho? This East Coast Bus League remains a joke.

Fouls on Mason are not being called.

O’Connor traveled, no call, Mason scored.
