| Hopefully we have a nice crowd for tonight's game. Hopefully students come out in full force and looks like 1st 250 fans will receive a free can cooler (yippee). Would be nice to pick up another win before Oakland rolls into town.

| Another loss!! I know we are only in year two of the rebuilding process, but it is getting frustating to keep losing all these close games.

| We are so close but we keep paying a penalty for having so many freshman in the rotation. From what I have seen this year, if we keep everyone that we should and they make a step forward, I think next year will be a very good year for the men's team. As far as last nights game, take out the bogus technical called and it might have been a different story. I hope there is some way to reprimand a ref that doesn't follow the rules of the game.

Loud and energetic crowd at the IPFW game. Students filled the seats on the east side of the court as well as behind the east basket. It would be nice to see some of the adults on the north side make a bit more noise.
The bogus "T" on Coach Mo needs to be addressed by Summit League officials.
Oakland was upset by IUPUI. We play them on Saturday.

If Fans & Coaches knew the rules as well as they think they do & then say on post game comments, then Coach Mo would have no beef about the "T". With that said, the "T" did NOT decide the outcome of the game. Going 4 plus minutes without scoring a point during each half is more reason for loss than anything else. I enjoy watching the effort of this team, the character, and the leadership shown by Ceola Clark. What a class player he is. Go Necks !!!

Coach Mo's comments concerning that Technical Foul (courtesy The Burlington Hawk-Eye):
At one point in the second half, while the Mastodons were shooting free throws, IPFW Coach Fife and one of the officials had a lengthy discussion. As the Leathernecks came up court, Molinari said to Official Kruger, “This isn’t a social.”
Molinari said after the game that officials cannot have lengthy conversations with one coach without the other coach present.
“I’m sorry I hurt my team (with the technical),” Molinari said. “The rule is you don’t talk to coaches without the other coach present. That is the rule.”
Molinari’s technical came during a media timeout with 11:47 to play. Ben Botts made two free throws, then on the ensuing possession Antwone Snead scored on a layup to give IPFW a 42-30 lead.
Ceola Clark's 3-point attempt to tie the game with seconds left was right in front of me. It looked good, but banged off the rim.
