13-17

So, the season finishes for the Falcons, with another first round loss in the MAC Tourney. We'll do a retrospective sometime in the coming days, now that the Long Awful Summer has begun. I think that for this team to do as well as it did, coming off a bad season and losing 3 of the top 4 players off that team, well, that's something.

The story was much the same. Our team lacks consistent scoring, especially at guard. (We failed to score 60 points in 5 of our last 7 games). We shot 38% and had 17 turnovers, and you give away that many possessions and you are going to lose. Clements, Jakubowski and Moten were a collective 2-19 from the field, and Larson and Miller were 5-17 collectively, and its hard to win games like that.

Otis tied his career high with 17 points. I think that our hope for Otis is that Louis Orr, former NBA big man, finds a way to teach Otis to be the player he clearly can be, because it will improve our prospects immensely.

Chris Knight did play, and had 11 points and 9 rebounds.

Again, more retrospective to come, but I don't think it was too surprising a season.
