Debby downer on Twitter, feel like I should post it since we're missing our usual Henny Pennies here.

Game stoppage is going to kill this sport. .. Time Out. .. Guess what. ... Another time out. .... How about a time out during this time out

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:28:28 PM

Lewis can shoot that step-back.

Did we mention CSU with no timeouts?

LaPorteAveApostle · March 07, 2015, 10:29:09 PM

And the award for "Least Comfortable I've Ever Felt In a Game Valpo Never Trailed By More than 1" goes to...

Gotta tighten up on the defense...don't like Lewis getting hot at the end...

LaPorteAveApostle · March 07, 2015, 10:30:22 PM

For a team that takes a lot of time outs, we sure run some aimless crap coming outta them.

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:30:34 PM

Gotta hit these... and _defend_.

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:31:55 PM

Big charge call. D walker? On the pass - don't see that often.

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:33:05 PM

_There_ was the crowd! On their feet! Noisy! CSU no time-out! 6th man!

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:34:43 PM

Lewis is going to get another look... but a step-back.

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:35:05 PM

Or maybe not. (I get Lee and Lewis terribly confused.. who has the step-back?)

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:37:09 PM

No Tevonn for the home run

We really don't want Jubril at the line here. Adekoya- prove me wrong!

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:37:25 PM

Key Vashil block on that last CSU possession.

bmlvu97 · March 07, 2015, 10:37:51 PM

See you in the ARC on Tuesday Night!!!

LaPorteAveApostle · March 07, 2015, 10:38:00 PM

It's 12:40, essentially, because of EST meeting EDT.

And I have to play & sing the 7 AM Mass.

But it's a heaven of a lot easier doing so after we win.

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:38:32 PM

Valpo wins! Valpo wins!

I hear you, I've got to be on shift in seven hours.

CSU played hard. Showed some real quality in places. Grady's great game from around the FT line. Lewis, or Lee, or whichever one it was with the step-back threes.

A worthy opponent. On to GB!

usc4valpo · March 07, 2015, 10:41:23 PM

whew! Peters and Grady played great. Fernandez came through at the end!

nkvu · March 07, 2015, 10:41:47 PM

Team showed a lot of guts to pull this one out!

usc4valpo · March 07, 2015, 10:43:27 PM

My daughter has dance competition in the morning.

3 wins against Cleveland State... Back to the finals. Hopefully Tevonn is alright and its just precautionary.

Alec with a huge game, 22 points, 8 boards.

Todd's talking about maybe Tevonn in the post-season, if it's not as bad as he thinks

E Vic on Sykes?

agibson · March 07, 2015, 10:51:12 PM

Luke doesn't expect Tevonn Tuesday. Calls it a "real injury".

Says Alec was fouled on every missed shot. Being held all game - couldn't keep his shirt tucked in.

Calls out Sykes as a second round draft pick, at least.

And nice testimonial on team defense. Paraphrased, "Going to be huge missing Tevonn [defensively]. But you try to tell E Victor he's not a great defender. Try to tell Keither Carter that. Vashil thinks he's a great defender. Jubril thinks he's a great defender. We pride ourselves on that." Luke said it better than I can paraphrase...

classof2014 · March 07, 2015, 11:00:40 PM

Valpo won this game. Made some big FTs, which really allowed us to keep the lead. Shut down Lewis for the most part, hit some late 3s but that was it. This team shuts down scorers, EVN and KC did a fantastic job after Tevonn went down early. From what it sounds like he's doubtful for Tuesday but it is postseason and maybe they're just saying that but my guess is he'll be in a jump-suit. We've been able to shut-down Sykes in the previous two games, which I think we'll do again Tuesday.

Funny how the two worst FT shooting teams in the league are the two best.

Excited for Tuesday! Great win. Time to take care of business!
