Oldham County showed some rust, but shook it off early in a 15 point victory over Collins on Tuesday.    The Colonels' inside game was clicking, and Oldham dominated on the glass with Xander Wagner-Rose posting a double-double (15 points / 14 rebounds).   Tyler Slone had 17 points; he's led the Colonels in scoring in all 4 of their games.  It was the Colonels' first game since 1/22/21.

Seneca finally got to play their first game of the year, and handled Atherton easily behind a strong full court pressure "D".  

It will be interesting to see how two pressing teams handle each other's defense on Thursday!

Curious to see how Seneca's press affects Oldham; Collins tried to press the Colonels last night and it really didn't have much of an effect.   Oldham handled it well, even when the Titans switched presses.

This game will be a very good test for both teams.  I'll give a slight nod to OC since their at home.

Seneca led at St X all game tonight before losing the lead with 3 seconds left. OC’s size will be a challenge for Seneca. 
 

How tightly the game is called will also have an impact, especially with two pressing teams. 

Seneca is very quick but OC size can give them problems down low. I think it will be competitive game.

Looks like Seneca is trying to catch up in the "games" department quickly, with two games already under their belts this week, and a third tomorrow night (Thursday).

They won't be too far behind Oldham in this regard; this will be just the Colonels' fifth game of the year.

I'm looking forward to watching this one!   It will be a good thing Pegasus will have one of its senior cameramen on duty as this will be a fast-moving game.... ?

Good test for two teams whose players may not yet be in the "basketball-condition" they'll have to be in to play the style of ball both coaches want...

In watching games to date, that's been the tell-tale of the teams with minimal games...
