Wow! Over 150 points scored tonight.

 

I enjoyed watching these two teams battle on the hardwood.

Coach Biggs' was not happy with free throw shooting tonight. That was pretty much the difference maker in tonight's game.

Giving up 32 points in the 4th quarter didn't help. What were they from the line?

At one point they were 32% I'm not exactly sure what the final number was on it. I just happened to catch his post game talk with Danny Weddle and he was talking about lack of practice and effort from a few of the guys.

This is a good loss in the growth process for mason. Only makes them better.

This was not a good loss for Mason, it was a give away. Mason had a 9 point lead at the end of the third quarter and come out in the fourth and played dead. Turnovers, rebounding, foul shooting and just out terrible Basketball. If Mason hits their FT's, they do win this game. Most troubling part was the FT's were missed by our two best players. That's a problem!!! Mason 12-25 and Lex. Catholic 29-37. Terrible Loss!!!

Sorry sumroyal,

You could have drilled St Pats by 40, that would have made you better.

My bad..

No loss is a good loss. Yes it happens but when it's a give away like this it's unacceptable. But then again, that's the difference in the mindsets from those of higher programs than those who have not had much sucess.

A win in our back pocket to a good program on the road, to a loss. Yea, that stings alot. Never said a word about playing the Saints. Don't say I said something that I didn't. I want to beat Lex. Catholic, never said a word about the Saints.

4 of the top 5 teams in the 10th lost last night. 3 out of region and the other 2 battled to a 4 point win/loss.

1 and 4

 

Yea any loss is bad, but the region is so equal that you might have gained ground taking a loss to a quality program.
