Crush the mount! I'm hoping for a similar showing as yesterday. Let's go hoyas!

Looking forward to seeing a game in person that looks like yesterday's display, though the Mount should be a slightly tougher test than the Leopards.
Sounds like the zone offense has made strides... will be interesting if that continues when the level of defense kicks up a few notches over the next few weeks.

The Hoyas used to play MSM all the time, but the rivalry got too intense, so it was dropped. I think this happened in the 50's or early '60s.

The Mount is led by guard Jeremy Goode, who averages 16.6 pts, 3.6 rebs, and 4.2 assts....except he's only 5'9''. He's joined by guard Jean Cajou (14.4 pts, 4.6 rebs), and forwards Shawn Atupem, Kristijan Krajina, and Kelly Beidler in the starting 5. Their tallest guy is 6'9'' (Krajina, from Croatia).
One of their asst coaches has a sister who is very, very attractive....sorry, is that inappropriate for the pre-game thread?

Given location and history, the GU-MSM rivalry was indeed intense.
I went to the [last] game at MSM in '58/'59 ? season.
My brother was on the team. They eventually won what was then called The College Division in '62 ?
Also on the team was Dennis Barry, cousin of gu'S jIM bARRY AND BROTHER OF rICK bARRY.

They pretty much return the same team that gave us a run last year they lost one starter. If we run the offense as well as we did yesterday we'll smoke'em. Keep building Hoyas. Get better every game. Never settle.

Good game for the starters to get some confidence up, and for Henry, Hollis and Vaugn to get some good minutes.

I've seen some comments predicting this game will be tougher than many expect. Don't know much about MSM, just looked at their schedule so far, and saw most recently that Navy took them to OT. Why will this be a test?

My guess is that it's based mostly on last year's game, which stayed very close (<6 lead) until very late.

Never settle. seconded....offense is coming together...continue to build on that and we will be fine. Get Henry some good minutes keep developing our bench |
