Was another one we could have gotten. We’re in it at the end, but Roberts missing those free throws really hurt. He played a good game though. Can’t complain too much after this one, seton hall is a very good and complete team with an excellent senior big man and Powell who is probably the best player in the country.
I thought basically everyone played well, but have to give special props to Rutherford who really gave Powell fits. Rutherford was face guarding him, denying, and did a nice job. When Rutherford came out, Powell scored 7 points in about 3 minutes.
Anyway, it was a good effort and shows that we should be able to pick up some wins in the league, at least at home. No easy games in the big East this year.
