Can't remember the last time we had 14 players hit the floor in a real game.

Narit not afraid to shoot.

And he makes 'em, too.

Great win! 90-65 Jacks!

We took 70(!) shots. Nice offensive night punctuated with some great defensive plays. Plenty to work on but not much to complain about. Let's keep this team rolling.

What a win! Go Jacks!

Thompson 26 points (11-17) 5 REB, 6 Assist, 1 Steal
Patrick 17 points (6-12)

SFA 12 3-pointers (36.3%) ; FG 34-70 (49%)

Wow. Wow.

I've got an observation (not really a complaint). I didn't see anyone ready to step in as a viable #2 PG if Keon goes down. Anyone see something that I didn't?

This was the most fun I've had watching a Lumberjack game in a long time. It was exciting to see a huge improvement in shooting. LOVED seeing them hit 3-pointers for a change. Definitely need to improve free throws, but this was a great effort. I had a blast watching this game.

"We were leaking oil..."

In all my years of following basketball I've never heard that expression.

Rice 63 (1-1)
(RV) Oregon 67 (2-0)
Final

Rice lead at the half 32-27 and it was tied at 40 with about 10 minutes remaining.

The Owls shot .41% (3FG) (hitting 11 three-pointers) this the the second straight game they have made at least 10 threes. Also they had 11 assists and 14 turnovers, got outbound 42-36 by Oregon.

Trae Broadnax 17 pts
Nick Anderson 16 pts
Jalen Smith 14 pts and a game high 5 assists (hit 4 three's)
Stephen Giwa had a game high 9 rebounds

G: Nick Anderson is a key addition to the team, a transfer from Prairie View A&M who lead the SWAC in scoring last season with 19 PPG
C: Stephen Giwa, if you will remember from Texas A&M CC, lead that team in FG%
G: Trae Broadnax is their returning lead scorer from last season, scoring in double digits 24 times.

Going to be a good road test in Houston for the Jacks.

Free throws:

Rice - 8-11
Oregon - 26-38

Rice had three players foul out.

Our starting PG (Thompson) is a stud. The post game presser….

Keon has come to play this season, he is going to have a huge year. Really impressed with Narit. He is not scared to shoot the rock. Backup point guard looks like an issue right now. Need Ahmad and Scurry to step up. I really think they need a few games to adjust to playing Division 1 ball.

I think Scurry can do it. Not sure about Ahmad. He's (Ahmad) good at handling the ball in transition. Just can't make the connection closer to the basket.

Ahmad just needs some time. Last year he was All Conference and All Region and Averaged 19 points per game. He just needs some time and games under his belt.
