PSU MBB vs Duqusne Psu up at half 33-29. Very good d and very poor O. Stevens

[CattyGuy51]

in double digits but with 2 fouls. Three other PSU players with 2. Watkins is the real deal but needs help inside.

This is going to be an ugly year!!!

Not so fast my friend. Carr is really playing well, and for once we seem deep enough to wear out other teams in the second half. The freshmen look very good. Our 3 point shooting is horrible but defense and points in paint look much better than prior years.

 

[psuguy43]

We'll improve dramatically. Starting 4 new guys, and Reaves is currently injured.

PSU wins 82-74. Freshman looked good. Watkins, Stevens and Carr all with very good games.

 

[PaoliLion]

Lamar Stevens...wow, 23pts, 5 asts, 2 blocks, 11 for 11 at the stripe. 2nd ever college game

Mike Watkins is going to lead the country in blocks at this rate...10 through two games.

This team will be very solid later this year as they develop

 

[psuguy43]

Lamar with 24, Carr with 20. 59 from the 3 freshman. About hit the spread with Reaves not playing and Shep having a bad game. All-in-all, these guys have a bright future

I know of reaves injury, whats Bostick's?

I'm guessing he's going to be RSed

The BTN announcers sounded very impressed. I must say this team looks very different for PSU. Three freshmen started. The offense picked it up in the second half. They were even missing Reaves, who would have played a lot. Duquense was hitting a crazy amount of three point shots but even that wasn't enough.These guys are good already and only going to get better.

Yes, a very young team that looks very talented. Athleticism like we have not seen at PSU. I believe Duquesne is rebuilding (I saw them play U of Dayton last year and they had a couple of talented seniors), but great to get a win after the loss.

 

[psuguy43]

As this team gels, their future is bright

 

[Norm Petersin]

Future is very bright. More raw talent on this team than any I have seen at PSU.

That would be nice with only the 1 ship to give. Plus once Reaves comes back it appears to be a 10 man rotation, well, at least 8 and then some spot minutes from Washington/Z as needed vs specific opponents. Out rebounded by 2 again, nice that Carr helped out with 7 to lead but Julian Moore needs to get more than 1 rebound in 22 total minutes this year too

Do we know what injury Reaves has?

 

[psuguy43]

Leg injury is all I know. Hope to have him back by Duke - we'll see

 

[psuguy43]

Next year we get Satchel Pierce down low as well. Even if he is only a warm body, it'll be a nice luxury to have 5 more fouls to give down-low and another upper-classman.

Ugh, just saw on twitter that he's expected to miss another week now

FIRE. CHAMBERS.


Seriously, I couldn't catch the game, but it sounds like it was a good win. PSU lost to Duquesne last year.
