Lamar Basketball versus HBU Jan 11th Menw away - Women @ home

[geezer]

Men tip off tonight at 7:00 PM in Houston. Women played at 2:00 PM ending with a 60-53 victory. Men look to end the skid following two losses. HBU is currently 1-2 in conference with a win over UCA and losses to SFA and Northwestern St.

[geezer]

HBU does have a video broadcast of their games but you cannot buy an individual game, so I guess I will just listen tonight. Sorry but I don't believe I'll pay ~$35 to get frustrated watching Lamar.

[geezer]

First media timeout finds HBU up by one 10-9. Cards have one turnover.

Girls won earlier today at the Montagne Center 60-53 in a close one. Ladies finished strong being down by 12 points in the 2nd quarter.

Congratulations Lady Cards.

[geezer]

HBU forced to call a timeout with 10:06 left in the game. Lamar is playing with much better intensity than they did Wednesday. LU up 31-27.

[Skinny1]

We are playing Morrison tonight. Can’t remember last time he was in a game. Go figure.

[lamarfan360]

Sullivan is playing well.

[geezer]

At the 7:58 media time out LU is up 38-29. Sullivan is already in double figures and has five rebounds. As a team the Cards have 3 turnovers so far and are shooting over 75% from the field. Yeah Nickerson and Morrison have both played but each picked up two quick fouls.

[Skinny1]

5 minutes left in 1st half, Sullivan has 15 points, shooting 6/6 with 6 rebounds. Could be close to a double double in the 1st half.

[geezer]

Spoke to soon Lamar has three turnovers in the next four minutes but between turnovers and missed shots by HBU Lamar has extended its lead to thirteen LU 50 - HBU 37

The Cards are still turning the ball over too often. Edited January 12, 2020 by lamarfan360

At the half Lamar is up by thirteen 58-45. Lamar shoots 75% for the first half including 5 of 7 three point attempts. The big negative is nine turnovers, however HBU has eight turnovers so except where the score could be the turnovers haven't hurt that badly. Cards have one more rebound than HBU but has no offensive rebounds. Individually Sullivan and Buster each have 15 points followed by Holmes with 11and Kopp with 8. Edited January 12, 2020 by geezer

Agree, last 4 minutes of the half was pretty sloppy for Lamar. Good thing is HBU was just as bad.

HBU is playing like a high school team tonight in a place that is like your average jr. high gym! SLC needs to get HBU to improve their facilities or get out of the conference.

Lamar lead was 19, now down to 11.

[lamarfan360]

Under 4 minutes and the LU lead is down to eight. Hope the Cardinals didn't choke.

[lamarfan360]

Lamar wins 102-92, just the second time the Cardinals leave Shark Gym with a victory.

Nice to see Lamar have 5 players score in double figures and shoot well(60%) from the field and free throw line(82%).

[geezer]

Good overall game from everyone. Another double double for Sullivan. Man am I impressed with his play this year compared to the previous two years.

[baller]

I and fans around me agree that Sullivan’s footwork and overall play have progressed notably well.
