    Well once again live from more gymnasium on the campus of pathon cookman University here in Daytona Beach Florida tonight’s second matchup between the methon cookman Wildcats and the Florida A&M Rattlers is on the air hello and a very warm welcome and happy New Year everybody my name is Michael Joell happy

    To have your company Hensen white is along for the ride we just witnessed a thrilling fourpoint win for the lady Wildcats as they start conference Play 1 and0 and we’re hoping that inspires the men to do the same against their AR trials from the highest of Seven Hills

    Yep so for the Rattlers Keith Lamar is their main focal point on offense he is their leading score this season averaging 14.3 points per game so look for him to set the tone for the Rattlers also look for Grant Shannon to be in the paint and the low post all game he is

    Listed at 610 get this 300 big one 300 lb and will be an interesting Force especially against Elijah hosway and this kind of tall lanky cookman team uh a majority of the team for this uh Rattler side is from Florida or at least the South with a couple players from DC

    Uh Tennessee Ohio and stuff like that they’re also very tall across the board with a majority of this team over that 63 Mark so look for height to not be as much of a factor as it has been in some of our past games this season and this

    Family team is very seasoned a majority of this team are seniors and juniors so look for them to play hard in this big time rivalry game because for some of them is their last time maybe playing in this rivalry game or playing at least on the road for this rivalry game so

    Players for like Lamar and Shannon will look to try their hardest to Come Away with the victory here in more gymnasium and important to note about the Florida A&M team is they have eight count them eight eight players scratched tonight a bench of only 11 so including love

    Bettis who is their best three-point shooter and uh free throw shooter excuse me so with a couple of those and especially Dominguez Stevens who was big in this match up last year off with a big with a long-term injury it’s going to come down to can the wild cats Force

    The Rattlers to get into foul trouble or can they force them to rotate some smaller guys in so less experienced players in into matchups where they aren’t really at as at as at an advantage yeah the one thing that you would be worried about and have to look

    Out for if you are the wild cats is the fact that this Rattler team is going to look to play hard obviously it’s a rivalry game and that could be a detriment to them if they foul a lot of these Wildcat players cookman just simply has more players than they could

    Play if you end up in a foul situation where you have your key players let’s say uh Shannon or keep Lamar get in foul trouble all of a sudden you’re looking at a two of your major players in foul trouble and you only have a bench at

    That point of around nine players so they’ll look to avoid fouls and try to keep this game fast and loose try to make sure that possessions don’t take too long they got to rest those players got to get the minutes and rotate a lot look for a lot of timeouts from the for

    The& M team as we roll into Introductions yes is it Okay C [Applause] Chic from Chicago 15 [Applause] reie Away we go Henson get your vocal cords ready it’s time for another match up between the Wildcats and the Rattlers and if it was anything like the last one we had earlier this afternoon in the women’s game it’s going to be a knockdown drag out battle all the way till the final

    With the Wildcat start jacobe Hy Zion Harmon Deshawn d Reggie Warden and Elijah three of the five players from the Chicago area of course Billy Garrett assistant coach recruits that area so so well it’s uh Chicago South here at Mo gymnasium today yeah I mean when you’re off of the same

    Area like that it’s always bu a little camaraderie you know you know some of the same people you’ve been to some of the same places it’s always a very fun experience to meet people from the same place that you are especially when you’re far away from home like they are

    You know that’s a a good little flight from the Daytona Internationals up to O’Hare in Chicago it’s going to be important for the wild cats to start fast they cannot let this Florida A&M team start hot on the offensive end and get away from them bamu only averaging

    65.1 points a game that’s second to last in the slack only Mississippi Valley is averaging a lower points per game than them but Florida ANM has played one of the toughest non-conference schedules in the C country kraton Nebraska Florida Oregon Iowa Iowa State UCF South Carolina

    Y as you can hear the wild C faithful tell you what they think about the Rattlers coming into to today’s game the Rattlers win the simp they’re in the green and orange Wildcats in the gold here we go it’s going to be Jordan Chapman to run the offense correction this is KJ Parker

    The Freshman from Lakeland High ball screen off to the left and now in the high post with garius eatman rising and firing and missing is KJ Parker and you mentioned how senior lad this fanu team is we’ve got KJ Parker just a freshman in the starting lineup for the Rattlers

    You know he must have earned he did a great job to earn that spot this year as hway gets the ball down low handoff Harmon a legal screen a legal screen a tough tough spot for holway trying to just set his feet doesn’t get it doesn’t get to his spot quick enough

    Ends up getting that foul that’s the last thing you want to see on a possession that was looked to be working in the Wild Cat’s favor still no score early on here Rattler’s second offensive position down low to Keith Lamar their top scorer he rises from the Baseline and J grabs

    The board Harmon pushing it in transition and aown from reie Ward that’s a way to start a game immediately putting again the crowd back oh into it as a rough screen extra pass Parker for three no offensive rebound for the Rattlers three is [Applause] good hway was doing a good job trying to

    Just get that ball out for you know recycle possession or get it to a teammate and it ends up being a good three-point possession for the Rattlers offense here’s DeShawn dys Baseline jumper nothing but twine Deshawn Dyson another Chicago native a transfer from St Augustine University hit a game-winning shot to

    Beat Alabama state in this gym last year at the buzzer spear again he’s got two threes from the corner Jaylen Spear and all six of the Rattler points he’s a Gainesville Florida native who started his career at his hometown Santa College Zion Harmon gets fouled as he tries to split a

    Double team I mean hey that’s what you want to see out of Zion Haron is just pressing into that you know get a foul Force this team to try to rotate their players early like they’re doing right now and you know with that short bench you end up in a positive situation for

    The wild cats as they look to the cycle possession Dyson on the Baseline J working on Shannon Grant the 300 lb here’s Reggie Ward moves inside shakes and bakes and misses good defense by Keith Lamar you can see H had to back end to Shannon and Shannon is not moving

    You know so it just didn’t work out download to Grant taken away by J nice defensive pressure by the Wildcats here’s Dyson hand off jacobe HTI he’s the top scorer on this wild catch Team 15 points a game tries to throw it to the Baseline for Zion and he threw out of

    Bounds good attempt there trying to work that offensive possession it just doesn’t work in the Wild Cat’s favor re you know giving the ball back back to the Rattlers last thing you really want to see but this uh press oh z uh Zion Harmon almost gets the steal off the

    Inbounds pass doesn’t happen though wild catch will full court press ball comes in to Jaylen spear the senior from Gainesville he actually started his career at FAMU then transferred to Santa Fe College and now back at FAMU for his senior year oh steal by jacobe h two on one the

    Other way H all the way bucket and the foul as Lookout referee referee almost gets bowling ball slide tackled even gets out the way Edie makes a great stop you make great shot rather on that fast break opportunity he was definitely going up for a dunk but saw the defender

    Closing in and thought hey let me just make sure I get these two points as he gets fouled and sent to the line Hy a 70% shooter from the line last year at w bash Valley College just staggering numbers 18.6 points 6.2 rebounds two assists for jacobe HTI and really the

    Only player on this team that I would describe as a true three-level scorer can shoot the three three can get the mid-range and can battle the PO down low in the post here’s KJ Parker against Zion talent to have spear again for three short and the Wildcats running in

    Transition Harmon against Spear takes the contact put back Jam by jacobe heny more gymnasium in rubs as Jobe head he dunks over a grown man on the put back dunk oh Bank is open for KJ Parker as the Rattlers keep this one close going right to the rack he gets F and

    One oh the Wildcats are looking to run early on lots of transition action for BCU in the first five minutes yeah moves the hosway gets his feet in the good position gets good body positioning to move the big man and hway is pretty big so calling somebody a big man next to

    Him is pretty impressive gets into that spot makes his shot and gets the foul as coach Theus looks to be talking to uh the ref and Jobe jacobe H here he’s talking to Harmon earlier well coach Theus is one of those coaches where he is in everybody’s ear the whole

    Time his players the opposing players the referee everybody yeah if you leave if you play on a court with Reggie Theus in the area you’re going to get used to hearing his voice throughout the game as holway makes that free throw and the Rattlers will look to try to slow

    This game down a little bit after this Wildcat kind of offensive Onslaught spear loses the ball oh but he backs it down as he was lying on the ground to get it to grant for the layup what a heads up play by jayen spear flying to the H Dyson he’ll go to

    The line and already plenty of fouls four fouls no three fouls on the Rattlers just one on bathon cookman as we hit the First Media timeout and we get a chance to say hello to Sabrina PTI home for Sabrina hello everyone well you could tell that the wild cards came out

    Of the gate just attacking the boys trying to get as many points as possible coming up rers as well seems like they have a different bit of a team that they’re going with with the offensive play but looks like a good game so far you know they’re behind by three points

    But 15 minutes on the board so we’ll see what we got what is your take on the contrasting Styles in Pace of play here early on the Wildcats looking to run push the pace and the Rattlers looking to slow it down play more traditional half court style it seems as the

    Rattlers did their homework on the Wildcat you know Wilds are more of a fundamental scam whereas you look at the Rattlers team they have kind of their own style when they have their ball like it’s it meses together but you can tell that every player has their their own

    Style whereas you know coach the is he makes sures that our walk team plays more of a fundamental basketball SW conference continues for BCU basketball and we need your support next weekend come out and catch all the BCU Hoops action sat Saturday January 13th as we host Grambling State for a double header

    The women tip things off at 2 p.m. with the men to follow at 4 tickets started just $15 are free with student ID can’t make it catch all the action on youtube.com backlash catch eye Network a great performance to start out for the wild cats offensively you know

    Working the ball around getting those fast break opportunities Jacob Hy already leading the scoring with that thunderous dunk five with Five Points one Steel Two rebounds FAMU on the other hand most of the reports have been from spear with that early uh two three three opportunity two uh two threes rather and

    Really helping that keep this Rattler team in it to start this game out 9 to 12 bethon cookman in the lead and going to the line after the first mediate timeout of the day it is Deshawn Dyson to the line despite being electric and game-winning situations Dyson comes to us from St

    Augustine University where he spent his soft more year averaged 17 points and five rebounds was second in his conference in points per game last year at BCU 11.4 points and 1.7 rebounds and his freshman year at Shaw College up near Chicago a lot of transfers for his

    Career a lot of movement but he’s found a home here in Daytona Beach that’s really how it is for a lot of the college sports landscape you’re transferring it it you don’t like the situation you’re just good to transfer some fresh faces into the game for the

    Rattlers kick out to rodri Coffee extra pass and another three for Jaylen spear he’s three for four from Beyond The Ark to start the game you got to start I mean if you’re the Wildcats defense you got to make a point to at least close

    Down on them a little bit more at least until he cools down J Baseline wrap around Dyson fading away no the ball pinballs around it’s still loose underneath the Rattlers finally get it away but spear eight points already in the first five minutes of action and he’s on the ball now thres it

    Into the corner gets it back as coffee was pressured by Harmon spear fakes the triple goes down low to Shane and grant grant working on J that’s going to be an important match up to watch all night long and Grant wins that battle yeah he beats him on that InStep and

    Hosway had a good offensive possession that last play with that Dyson fadea away that missed Wildcats almost turn it over but a reaching foul called against Hans Lewis June cool name gets the foul though kind of reaches around tries to step in front of the pass but kind of throws head back

    And you know they’re going to call that every time Lewis June from lakew Worth Florida but started his call career at Northwest Kansas Tech and then has come back to the Sunshine State p on the hand off to Reggie War Jr the team leader in field goal percentage J tries to give it

    Right back to Shannon Grant and he does off the window calls him too small on the walk back and they’re already hustled up underneath and they’re going to call a foul on J for pushing off and the referee said has known of this nonsense and you can hear what the crowd thinks about

    It Shannon Grant is a funny man kind of gets shoved into and immediately goes and points at J and looks at the ref almost snitching on J that hey that was him I didn’t do anything there Cloud cats by one another three on the way this one short wrestled out of bounds by

    Lewis June wild cat ball and we immediately see H being retired from the game in favor of James Henderson Jr and he’s going to get a talking to I’m sure from his coaching staff do not sink to that of level of pettiness don’t get attacked this early on in the game and

    Just kind of play with a cool head yeah let’s not you know let’s not get dumb fouls in the first half oh pull up from the corner Dyson left it short Dyson not afraid TR to shoot he’s already taken three shots in the game Parker with heny switched on to

    Him Parker goes past H and it’s stripped by Ward ward off the extra pass can’t go to the rim nice transition defense by the Rattlers they look to slow down this possession a little bit work the ball around screen from Henderson Dyson free throw jumper block from the back end by

    Le June Le June has a vertical on him and then the Rattlers can’t get the ball into the front court and Zion Harmon hits those for breakfast lunch and dinner that’s a practice shot for Zion Harmon you know tuning up the band s to speak there you know you give him an

    Open look you make a off a defensive mistake and he just give him the most free look possible rather than just letting the ball go out a strip by by Zion that’s a clean strip in transition it’s one again and one with the dunk oh the Wildcats have come to run

    Today I mean it’s a dunk in name kind of only he kind of the definition of a rim Grazer kind of just puts the ball in the basket hands were by the rim we’ll call it a dunk I think the fans want to call it a dunk they called it officially on

    The stats they called it a jumper I’m I’m not sure that’s correct at least a layup but not a maybe not a jumper as he looks to make it a three-point play from the line and make this lead kind of stretch it out a little bit 2114 an 80

    Run by BCU out of the media timeout and the wild cats have answered the call they’re playing better on defense and have forced five Florida A&M turnovers and that’s something that they do better than anybody else in the swack they Force opponents into 19 and a half turnovers per game Y and senica

    Willoughby gets checked into the game along with uh DJ DJ Carter Hollinger as we’re getting a stoppage for cleaning the court as head coach Robert McCullum in his sixth season for Florida ANM kind of gets animated on the sideline coach the loves to make sure that this court is clean that all time

    But colum is an interesting story he coached the Nigerian Men’s National Team for a while as well as having stints at Western Michigan and USF you have to wonder if he’s bilingual at this point another Rising triple that’s no good it carms around p in transition back to

    Zion little bit of a smaller lineup for Bon cookman on the floor right now not a lot of post presence as Henderson and Hall wrestle down low and it’s going to be a foul on uh excuse me and Jarius ichan yep we’re already at six total fouls possibly seven here as the Wildcat

    Going to the bonus early in this game it’s a one and one for James Henderson Jr and I guess if you’re going to call the Ticky Tac foul off the ball one way you got to call it the other way Henderson misses the front

    End of a one and one that’s one of the worst feelings in the game of basketball everybody immediately just breaks and acts like that free throw does not happen already seven fouls on the Rattlers Jaylen Spear’s been hot he doesn’t stay hot but an offensive board for eatman put back

    Blocked and then a trip by Willoughby no call mid-range Jumper by spear no spear almost elbows uh Zion between the legs step back left it short and then a foul is going to go against James Henderson on the rebound that was a wild sequence down here hson break it down for us we

    Kind of you lose possession one way they try to keep the ball and it just doesn’t work out the Wildcats still break away on that fast break on that second chance opportunity that the uh Rattlers got doesn’t work out Wildcats get the ball gu who run an offensive possession foul

    Called now no one has any points and everyone’s upset at home media timeout number two Sabrina how have the Wildcats built this league wow I’m actually kind of very excited to see what the season holds for our Wildcats um you could definitely tell what type of chemistry

    That they have especially with the um some of the older players and the newer players cuz this is still pretty much a new team um so the season just started so the way that you see that the players are mesing really good but both teams need to be able to drop these points

    Especially if they’re not making it from the second shot second point in so we’ll just see what we have to hold now the wild cats have gotten most of their points in transition when they’ve gotten into their half court set the Rattlers have gotten pretty well set defensively

    What are the wild cat need to do to break that press um I think one thing that they have to do is just continue to watch their balls and continue to uh see what the other team is playing for as well thank you Sabrina Nike the official Outfitter of

    The Fast Break Henson y That’s what you I mean this is how this Wildcats team likes to play they love to play off the fast break they love to create those two-on-one three-on-one opportunities get the crowd into it people love dunks people love fast break play so it works

    Into their favor especially at home Spears been the hot hand for Florida A&M Zion Harmon takes it away he goes to the rim and he gets the layup more fast break points for the maroon and gold nine-point lead for the maroon in gold as Z Harman gets another

    Steel and he’s not even on Main Steeler that’s on the deanii McIntyre has not seen the floor yet tonight but the wild cats already have five steals kick out spear Corner triple short and at a certain point you kind of got to stop letting him rock you know

    He’s kind of cooled off nice pass a bullet from Zion underneath and jacobe Hy finishes through contact almost forces a turnover there on the inbound playing some tough defense and we’ll have a timeout called by Florida a& M as we do see deoni McIntyre check into the game and he can

    Change a game all by himself he is number four in the nation in steals per game at number eight in total steals 3.1 and 39 respectively and this is from a player who led the league in steals last year and he’s doing it Off the Bench yeah that’s that’s different defensive

    You know I don’t even have the word for it because they you can’t Off the Bench doing what he’s doing is absurd I I no other way to put it we being a top five in any category outside of maybe percentages when you’re playing off the

    Bench is very impressive and we try to make note of it here on this broadcast jacobe head up to seven points for bethon cookman three of three shooting and three rebounds so Henny doing what he does best scoring and getting the ball off the misses we have not seen a lot from James

    Henderson or DJ Carter Hollinger they are in the game together and I guess both of them kind of make one Center When J is out of the game it’s a bit of a smaller lineup for Bon cookman and Henderson 69 hard Carter Hollinger 66 yeah but how they play they definitely

    Lend themselves to playing that physical kind of style style rather DJ Carter Hollinger loves being in people’s faces loves being that guy you know the Draymond greenes type where they just press up make you know make it very tough on opposing offenses especially at home he loves getting the crowd into the

    Game and we’re going to look to see that James Henderson Junior’s no slash either loves a good Outlet pass and working the ball well and he’s not in the game right now after picking up that kind of ticky tack foul but Elijah H had a good start

    To the game as well he’s up to Five Points yep we saw how he was you know we’ve seen some offensive inconsistency from him to start out the season especially at home and that’s great to see him kind of get his feet under him obviously you don’t want him to pick up

    That kind of dumb foul to start out the game but he’s doing well starting five back on the floor for Florida A&M here’s Keith Lamar shoveling it underneath to Shannon Grant and Keith Lamar still not on the score sheet yet but picks up his second assist Lamar leads this team in points

    At 14.3 per game to the wing he he didn’t take the triple and then turns it over as the big man Shannon Grant uses the quick hands Grant has is just uh a force down there you kind of it’s hard for oh what a block James Henderson pinned it to the

    Backboard Rattlers maintain possession in the scramble the three is short and they kind of both landed awkwardly both of them were a little slow to get up Dyson as Dyson worked that’s a tough finish offensive rebound though James Henderson I thought he was going to take

    A three Dyson likes the three and he hits the three gets the assist James junor he definitely saw it and was like maybe I no I’m going pass it and DeShaun Dyson converts it for him Henderson is not attempted a three-pointer this season and he’s not going to start now

    He’ll get it to the guard there is De McIntyre his first steal he goes Coast to Coast close the layup but he gets it back in the corner McIntyre oh D with a triple thre is more than two anyway there goes that man we brought him up

    Earlier and he said oh here I am 3116 the wild cats are motoring as there’s another foul off the ball look like it is against the wild cats here a lot of conversations going on everybody kind it’s against McIntyre I couldn’t see what number the uh the official put up saw three

    Somewhere in there so so senica willby maybe possibly either way a baseline in for the Rattlers Grant right it underneath the spear yeah that’s a great step play yeah kind of hits a little hesitation like a receiver running a route and gets enough space to make that layup look

    Easy McIntyre will run the offense Dyson attacks the close out short Corner a little bit too strong Henderson tries to rip down the board and it will be FAMU ball good position there for Henderson but against the bigger grants it was kind of tough sledding underneath yeah three big

    Men kind of surrounded James Henderson he’s trying his hardest bless him down there but you know you don’t got the height or the size you kind of will end up in those kind of situations lots of off ball contact and senica willough is going to be called

    For a second foul for reaching in off ball on Morel Shram yeah you know let’s not do that keep doing that to start this game out I know it’s a rivalry game I know you know tempers flare and stuff but you don’t want to put your team in foul trouble for no

    Reason Willoughby comes out Harmon comes back in the way the Theus talk to him it might have been a plan set play plan kind of situation but hey I don’t know spear in the corner guarded by Harmon through a screen back to Grant goodness great defense underneath and har uh McIntyre rips it

    Away extra pass and a reverse layup is good in transition that’s DJ Carter Hollinger extremely pretty layup I’ve never been that tall so I have no idea how that feels Grant trapped in the corner back to the top for spear and FAMU runs the offense

    3318 oh that’s a wild pass and what a brilliant play by Jordan Chapman to bounc off the hip of DJ and keep it a FAMU ball as we hit the under eight media timeout it’ll almost another turn over the Rattlers have turned it over seven times so far the wild cats just

    Three Sabrina how does the how do the Wildcats continue to force these turnovers I believe it’s just is a great thing that they’ve been working on so hard I mean you got some team members that are dogs on that team the Hy Eddie definitely a dog and a leader on that

    Team as well but we also also do need to tighten up our um defense under the hoop as well um it’s an interesting match up between gray and Henderson as well um he’s a sophomore so he’s still a bit young but I believe with the games that he continues to play you’re definitely

    Going to see an improvement with him with his size and you know how p is definitely be a great match up as well and this is a completely different game referee wise right the first game they let him play they let him hand fight this game the referees none of that cuz

    It can get real real tough and real high really quick as same time so you know it’s a different energy when it comes to men’s basketball team whe whether it is with Women’s Basketball team and you know it’s also a rivalry going on as well too so the energy is definitely up

    There and be both teams are going to uh have to really kind of have some self-d discipline today if they don’t want to get a techical especially we saw that first interaction between Grant and Henderson right so I need to be cleaned up a little bit I just honestly feel

    Like if you know they play a tight game and a clean game we’ll be able to execute some of these plays and you know put some board points on the board stay up to date with everything bethon cookman Athletics by checking out the Wildcats on social media give BCU

    Athletics a like on Facebook and follow the Wildcats on Twitter and Instagram at vcuathletics for the latest on BCU basketball follow at BCU Hoops on Twitter and Instagram that last possession for win to that break at first I thought they were going to call that foul call a foul on Chapman kind of

    WRA his arm around Dian Harmon and that’s part of the reason why the Wildcats players kind of just stopped trying on that possession and then he makes a heads up play to keep the possession Defender falls down Grant floater short McIntyre with the Miss and he looks to

    Run nanii shovels it back to Dyson transition triple tough sledding for the Rattler defense as Z as the team has spread this score out really well Zion Harmon Deshawn Dyson and Jacob H all having a around spear lost the ball Zion has the ball Harmon floats it up

    Oh onehanded Throwdown by DJ Carter Hollinger they are tired of me talking so they’re getting and an offensive foul for an illegal screen it’s all wild cats at the moment Damani McIntyre tries to calm down the crowd a little bit before the wild cats get possession back as more gymnasium

    Lost it a little bit the the commentary Booth lost it the production team as a whole lost it on that onehanded alley slam that was amazing that was very I very impressive Sports Center if you’re watching we got a top 10 play for you down here in more Jim [Applause]

    Pass underneath and then uh Carter Hollinger turns it over spear in transition yo as he’s falling over and gets it to go Jaylen spear really impressive early on for FAMU up to 12 points that Euro took both of his Defenders out they kind of fled and slid

    Into each other no pass another no look pass and DJ finishes at the cup 20o lead for this wild cats team and it hasn’t looked close for a good stretch since that opening flurry of points from the Rattlers they’ve kind of been held in check by this amazing wild catch defense

    Well and also the Rattlers is here’s a three no good a rebound the the Rattlers are still rattled for lack of a better term by this fastpaced BCU offense and even in the games that we saw as there’s another three for Zion no good but even

    In the games we we’ve seen here at more gymnasium specifically against Incarnate Word earlier on in the season we did not see this pace from the Wildcats offense you know you get in that midsweet season swing that midseason Groove they played plenty of games coming into tonight so

    It’s you know they get that energy they know how they’re going to play their gelled together at this point nice move by Lamar and he’s fouled by McIntyre on the shot as you mentioned the Wildcats coming off a 4 game losing streak puu Fort Wayne Chicago State UCF and

    Mississippi State those first two games pretty close the second two we kind of move on from those we don’t talk about those but uh if you’re a rattler fan you want uh keep Lamar to get the ball a little bit more I mean only this I think

    His first chance for points this game his second shot attempt as the refs I think heard some shping or a substitution rather uh yeah we’re trying to get a substitution and the referee was like no you can’t be off the bench but it was the sub and we’ve

    Seen this referee crew be the kind of crew that’s going to hold everybody to a really high standard as the first free throw is missed by Lamar um so you’re going to have to like no bench warnings no chirping don’t you will be called for technical fouls for those little things

    Yeah and that’s good to have in a rivalry game you don’t want stuff to get out of hand no one wants to see a game get uglier have something happen all of a sudden players are in trouble and you know programs aren’t you don’t want to

    See all that so A good referee and crew will help you know stop that from happening stem that kind of tie and the referees do their homework just like you and I do here’s Reggie ward he spins and he’s fouled nice footwork By Reggie but to finish my point about the referees yeah

    Um they do their homework just as much as we do right they study the teams they know who the players are they know who the potential troublemakers are they know you know kind of pace of play the teams like to run at and they recognize that this is a rivalry game so they’re

    Going to have to clamp down on a lot of this silliness early so it doesn’t break count late y That’s the you know refereeing isn’t an easy job it’s kind of like being a pilot everyone you know talks about them in a bad way but no one

    Wants to be one you know so you know first free throw is Good from Ward as deanii McIntyre comes out he’ll do that all day play about five minute stretch get three Steals and then leave again he’s got a got a nice position on the team I mean that’s got to that’s amazing

    If you could come to work for about four minutes do some cool stuff and then go sit back down as a makes both free throws there Rattler ball 4221 corre yeah 42 21 we really just wanted to say it one more time to the rler fans at home

    20-point lead now this game not over by a long shot Lamar tries to attack the close out and a foul going to be called on Yousef Tamra as he prevents Lamar from landing and we had that in the first game right I mean he kind of run

    It’s kind of you know more gymnasium doesn’t like that call he doesn’t he doesn’t have a place to land to be fair to the defender there his hands were up he was standing still there isn’t much more he can do other than simply let him

    Go by him or back up so it’s a weird kind of position for the player if you’re going to call that for Ward who was also kind of doing a little spin around situation earlier you kind of have to call for Lamar so it’s only fair consider consen is key referee Lamar has

    To now two points as that one hangs on the rim and doesn’t go as the student section lets him know about it 20-point game five minutes left to go first half head at the nail fakes the jump shot backs up to the corner fakes the shot into Yousef Tamra

    Tamra hook shot way too strong Yousef a a sophomore center from France hasn’t seen much play to this season and that’s a no call as Reggie Ward steps on the Baseline as he rebounded the ball and he’s not happy about it I know but that

    Was a bit of an ugly play on both sides the coach the is immediately telling you I’ve never seen you shoot that shot you do not shoot that shot another transfer from Northwest Kansas TCH just like I’m trying to find it on my sheet and I’ve lost it I’ll I’ll get

    That note for you at some point Y we will not forget that’s Keith Lamar drives floer good tough shot yeah Wildcats will look to push the pace oh step back three no good offensive rebound for Tia another three from the exact same spot and a foul

    So Zion’s going to go to the line correction Deshawn Dyson is going to go to the line and they’ll get Morel sh with the foul yeah Dyson kind of pulls a little Jame hard James Harden move something that we if you’ve been watching you know a basketball for a

    Long time or especially these past 10 years we’ve seen a lot more of a three-point shooter taking a shot and then intentionally kind of kicking their legs out so that they don’t have a place to land where the defenser closes the defender is down on them then it’s a

    Foul and everybody’s on the floor and now you get three free throws or one if you make it yeah so Hans Lewis June I found my note and um Yousef Tima were teammates at Northwest Kansas Tech two seasons ago and you both end up at rival schools in the same state in

    The same it’s very very funny kind of situation the L the uh what Theus told Yousef after his shot kind of reminded me of another alltime great talking to one of his players Patrick that famous Patrick Yan clip where he tells his player you’ve never shot that shot before so what kind

    Of shot is that now I’m thinking about it but Dyson again perfect from the line the Wildcats 57% from the floor tonight in the first half and that has helped them build this 20-point advantage and they’ve kept this 20-point Advantage for much of the game spear

    Nice close out by Dyson tough shot is left short and Deshawn grabs the Miss Spears kind of had the lay of the land in terms of shooting but hasn’t really had it since the start of the first half hit those qu three quick triples and then hasn’t had much since

    Yep as the Wildcats will drain some first quarter clock with 15 on the shot clock Zion on high as there’s a lot of off ball Motion in front of him Tamra sets the screen Zion goes around step back triple oh my goodness this has been a highlight filled first half for the

    Wild cats and another play from Zion Harmon who’s quickly becoming one of the Premier guards if not already of the swack conference almost gets another steel off Lamar Lamar dribbles into a long two and hits it tough shot hand all up in his face he makes that shot very impressive

    Trying to help his team out probably need the ball more if they to look to come back from this big deficit Lamar’s got four Spears got 12 War it almost looked like he wanted to shoot that three Deshawn Dyson will and it’s going to be a chance for a

    Fourpoint play as he was not allowed to land everything the wild cats touch turns to gold on gold out night at more gymnasium high five in I think his parents in the audience or somebody in the audience after that 4 play deserved one after that moment and just a lot of

    Offensive Brilliance out of the wild cats already at 50 points to start this first half off really showing that at home they’re a different animal a different wild cat if you will wild cats will go to the line Dyson will to potentially put the Wildcats at 51

    Points in the first half sabr has been watching this closely what are your thoughts on the recent Wildcat run a I’m really actually very excited Dyson came off the bench um with the leading scoring points for bathon cooking with 16 points um that’s a lot of energy and

    It’s very interesting if you look at coach uh coaching style he has a very very fundamental clean coaching style and it works um we also get to take a look at their defense they have like some sort of a man and Zone thing going on that’s giving them just enough

    Pressure but enough space for any mistakes to happen so they can you know get off the defense and head to offense yeah and it’s it’s something where the offense never knows if there’s going to be a switch on a pass or they’re going to chase through the screen right or a

    Double team is coming it’s kind of nebulous in that sense it’s like all those what if moments that are happening ends up happening because of that uh defense um that defense play that they’re playing it’s exciting to see we have sort of a big lead with 50 points

    Going on in 26 for the guest so we’ll see if the Rattlers will be able to catch up with their defense that they were able to complete and and put yourself in coach Robert mccullum’s shoes for f VI for a second right you have not been able to stop this

    Fastpaced offense of bethon cookman what do you what did you do tactically to try and solve this puzzle we have to go to man if I was a coach I would honestly have to go to man cuz that was would be the only way for um my team to keep up

    With you know the Wildcat and you know just to stay with them so that’s what I do desan tyon will go to the line after this timeout don’t miss a second of Wildcat basketball this season get your tickets to see Bon cookman basketball live at more gymnasium starting at just

    $15 get your tickets today at the BCU box office or online at ticketmaster.com Deshawn Dyson’s leading the team in points right now 16 make trying to make it 17 on this second uh uh and one opportunity oh my goodness that’s Aid ridiculous tip in from Reggie

    Ward says I need some points coach Zion Harmon’s looking at a the possible double double already eight uh points and six assists so watch out for that as this game continues jab step spear Swish and he’s been hitting those mid-range shots but only four FAMU players are on the scoreboard Parker as

    Two spear has 14 Lamar and Grant both have six as the Wildcats have clamped down defensively and forced 11 corre nine turnovers in the first half Dyson open for three again step back right in Spear’s face can’t hit it that time it’s too strong now the Rattlers will try and

    Push some Tempo in transition back to the top spear long three front iron no good but it’s a long rebound that comes down to LS June Lamar he tries the really long three in and out out of bounds Wildcat ball off of Hans now I want to give somebody a little credit on

    The Rattler’s side of the ball Lewis June has been about everywhere for them on the on the boards he had uh a pretty good vertical as we’ve seen he’s only 6’4 but he is just Springs up tries to get board tries to tip it out and he

    Done a really good job of doing that to start this game out Dyson throws the ball away and L comes Lis June with the hammer I brought him up and you know takes advantage of that fast break opportunity to show it one more time and time out Bon cookman as coach

    Theus not happy with that one just a 30se second timeout so we’ll keep it right here coming up for the Wildcats next weekend they get a three-game home stand going as on Saturday the men and women play Grambling State and on Monday it’s the Southern Jaguars that come to

    Town Grambling State especially the women have been in the news recently for their 158 to13 win over the College of biblical studies which is the largest margin of victory in a division one women’s basketball game of all time which is I mean an absurd stat give give

    Them a lot of credit for that also making up for HBCU in general after South Carolina kind of put I think it was Florida was it Florida Memorial who did they play earlier this year they it was um I believe it was Mississippi Valley Mississippi Valley by a lot so

    They redeemed uh HBCU across the country by going hey we are not that bad and they had a great performance here the women will our wild cats wom we see will look to have a great performance against them as well after winning earlier today against this Rattlers

    Team wow that’s back on offense they’ll swing it around to Dyson 125 to go first half Harman little jab step Dyson catch and shoot way too strong doesn’t even hit the rim and I mean Dyson has free reign to shoot those shots as he’s been hitting them more

    Times than not Grant back in the game bucket and one down low against Chima all it’s a tough situation for Tamra I mean he kind of puts his hands up does about as much as he can can do without trying to foul him gets the foul

    Car anyway and he scores so it’s kind of you know you try sometimes you don’t succeed it’s one of those eight players for the wild cats have scored in this game only five for FAMU [Applause] yeah both Wildcat teams men’s and women try to spread the scoring a lot and often

    And we’re seeing that here especially with this larger lead that they’ve kind of built Harman round the screen but lost the ball and the Wildcats now getting a little bit sloppy there sixth turnover of the first half and that that all that momentum the Wildcats had in the beginning of this

    Half seemingly gone away as it’s a 70 FAMU run yeah that that extra time out hasn’t really helped them it seems but thankfully they’re kind of going into this halftime break and will look for the ratley to try to take the air out of the ball even though there was a 26

    Point Advantage Lewis June gets hammered no call and he looks at the ref like you’re calling every little reaching as a foul but you don’t call that yeah I mean I’m pretty sure he came in on Yousef and Yousef just stood there he didn’t really he didn’t move he didn’t

    Try to do anything to him so you can’t call him for anything especially when you run into a player head on like that so I think it’s a fair non- call py looking for a post player goes crosscourt to Zion thought about a deep three he drives floats it up and in Zion

    With a nice Nifty little move little burst of speed as well making up for his possession loss earlier by m making a pretty shot pretty layup and now the Rattlers were home hold rather for the last shot of the half 10 seconds to go wouldn’t surprise me if spear takes it

    Himself gets the Green from Grant chases Tamra to the left Lamar open for three way short and that is the end of the first half mostly except for the last couple of minutes all wild cats as they shoot 58% from the floor and 60% from three to take a

    5433 lead into halftime Sabrina your thoughts on the first half um it’s an interesting game that we have here um I we definitely see that F’s coach has definitely on onto what the Wildcats were doing and switch from um man to a zone defense and saw that it was working

    For their team so we’ll see when we come back from the halim to see if they will continue to be in the zone but um I love the energy that the Wildcats are coming with and we continue to see if you know if they’re going to continue to drop

    Points we have a good pretty much a good 20o lead about a 20 point lead so right now it’s look can go for the lockouts 19 points the Gap as we hit the break we’ll take a halftime interval and come back this is bethon cookman University basketball on the K Canon Network

    Welcome back to more gymnasium for the second half of Play Between the Bon cookman Wildcats and the Florida A and M Rattlers to kick off swack conference play in the second game of our double head of the Wildcats looking for a sweep of the Rattlers today after the women’s

    Team P pulled out a four-point win in the afternoon game here are your scoring totals for the first half first for Florida A&M spear leads the way with 14 Grant has nine Lamar six Parker and LS June both have two Chapman eatman coffee and Shram have play played but not

    Scored and for bethon cookman it’s DeShawn Dyson’s day 16 points on five of 13 shooting including three for six from Beyond The Arc Dion Harmon is also in double figures he has 10 also six assists watch out for a double double potentially from Zion Reggie ward has nine jacobe heny

    Seven Elijah H five McIntyre with three Tamaro with two and Carter Hollinger with two Willoughby and Henderson have played but not scored for the wild cats Sabrina patite Hol has been following all the action Sabrina what do you think is going to happen in the second half

    Well I don’t think that the Wildcats are going to keep their they’re going to keep their foot on the Rattler’s necks that’s for sure but one thing I am interested to see because right before the halftime started we saw the close for Fu had switched from a man to a zone

    So I’m interested if he’s going to keep that start in the game and how the wets are going to respond to that but so far I just know that there’s gonna uh wets are gonna come out with some high intensity energy and you know just drop some more points and I expect the

    Rattlers to be able to uh you know counteract that Hensen white is once again back Hensen we saw a barrage of deep shooting for the Wildcats in the first half do you think this is going to be the game plan for the swack because they’re going to be dominated sizewise

    By so many of these swack teams yeah I I think it would be a great idea especially if they could do it consistently to have a deep shooting threat consistently that’s the only way you’re going to draw those teams out and allow your other scorers in the paint to

    Make an impact and one thing I want to note for this F U team is that due to possibly playing that tough schedule throughout the season Oregon Nebraska Florida kraton Iowa Iowa State UCF South Carolina none of those teams are slouches so you come in to a conference

    Game where you’re supposed to have better odds and it’s supposed to be a close game game and you know different energy but you’re so used to having to play from behind being the underdog and losing a lot of those Underdog situation games that it just might be a mentality

    Issue we saw them having success in certain things and then would go away from it Shannon was working well we just and they stopped using him he got stopped once or twice and they were like we’re done we’ve seen the only person we’ve seen consistently keep having the

    Ball in his hands is Spear and out of the start of the game he hasn’t been doing well either so it’s a very interesting thing to see and to see how they go throughout the rest of this game and throughout the rest of the season the wild cats did most of their damage

    In the first half on The Fast Break scoring 23 fast break points 18 of those as a result of 10 Florida A&M turnovers the Rattlers caused nine steals for 10 those 10 turnovers and the wild cats they are def a heavily defensive minded team they like to steal the ball they

    Like to pressure passing lanes and we saw it work to Perfection at half number one they’ll look to keep it going just in the half number two you know you’re up 21 you can put your take your foot off the gas a little bit but that doesn’t mean you should starting five

    Back out on the floor so we’ll see Elijah H here’s Reggie Ward step back off the window this has been an excellent shooting night from the wild cats shooting around ooh good shot there by the number 11 there for f Roger coffee but it’s been an actually shooting night

    For the wild cats consist shooting around 60% both from the field and from the three-point line and 66% from the free throw line so consistently 60 this game J that pass a little bit toe tall for him for Zion spear in transition coffee throws it away I thought coffee

    Was going to just pull up but he attempted to pass it he overthought it there one two many extra passes and it’s a turnover Zion ISO ball Dyson wide open on the wing just a little bit short the ball goes out of bounds it’s going to be

    FAMU ball last Touch by Elijah H and I want to bring up h a little bit because he played the first seven minutes got that Ticky Tac foul coming down the floor and then didn’t play the rest of the first half and he wasn’t involved in

    A lot of the momentum for the wild cats on the floor do you think that plays into his game even just mentally at the start of the second half it’s got to feel kind of weird to see the team succeed and then he gets and one on by

    Grant to see the SE team succeed because especially when you started well he started well and then to get taken off because of a dumb foul admittedly but then to not see any more minutes for the rest of the half has to kind of play with your mental a little bit even if

    You understand why it kind of kind of feels like dang I’m getting singled out for this or something now you can only imagine the mental kind of situation that’s going on hopefully he can get through it and plays well throughout this second half Grant at the line to

    Try and complete the and one he misses it short it is a rattler rebound and then a jump ball the Rattlers do have the possession arrow so now down by less than 20 just 18 the lead’s been as much as 26 at 5226 in that first half that first half 54

    Points for the Wildcats was their highest scoring half of the season and their best shooting percentage in a half of the Season Coffee corner pocket good he makes he makes up for that earlier extra pass coach uh the coach for the uh Rattlers wanted him to press there now

    Calling a timeout 0 run to start the second half by by FAMU time out um by the bth grman Wildcat regie Theus wants it Sabrina what do you think is going through the’s mind right now um he definitely sees that the game has slowed down just a little bit um in my opinion

    Elijah just needs a little bit more confidence down below if he goes in a little bit stronger and you know rebounds and um rebounds the way that he needs so I think the team will be able to um able to get those loose balls they need to attack the boards a little bit

    More but the game has definitely slow down from the half so I think he’s just trying to see if the uh plays are going to be ran Through five oh me 80 run by FAMU over the first minute 23 of half number two and when you play this style Hensen of just continuously shooting outside shots and relying on the three to go when you have a great shooting half like the Wildcats did did 60% from three you kind

    Of think that regression to the mean will happen a little bit and you’ll shoot a little bit poor in the second half so you’ve got to be prepared and have a backup plan for when that three-point shooting goes south and the Wildcats really don’t right now yeah I

    Mean you you go out and have an amazing three-point performance you have an amazing shooting performance overall and you come back out in the second half and you kind of have to mentally accept Okay we’re probably not going to like obviously it’d be amazing if we do but

    We’re probably not going to be able to keep shooting like that so maybe this is what that timeout was about like Hey we’re going to slow this game down take the air out of the ball you know do uh work the ball in a little bit more work

    Around a lot more and do a better job to start out this second half out of a timeout Wildcats will control it’s been all Deshawn Dyson early on offense for the Wildcats and hasn’t really worked out for them maybe get Harmon or H involved a little bit

    Harmon back to Henderson Dyson in the corner in and out but the put back is there from Reggie Ward Reggie Wards had a very good game as well you know he gets a lot of those uh Second Chance efforts and tough baskets to go so you

    Might not see them but you notice that he has you know nine points heading into this 17th minute of play they go to Grants again against Carter Hollinger and Grant gets the and one again excuse me against James Henderson I’m not 100% sure what he fouled there I think it might have been

    From behind because James Henderson Jr certainly didn’t do much in that situation yeah that foul was against Deshawn Dyson so must have came in too hard from behind there trying to foul trying to mess up his shot and when you’re that small and a guy that big you

    Kind of have to throw yourself at him to to really affect his shot Grant misses the end one and it’s going to be BCU ball last touched by Chapman Chapman from bmer Alabama in a transfer from Shelton State Community College two years ago his season high this season is eight

    For Chapman it doesn’t he has yet to get on the score sheet this evening P turn around catches goes to the hole and he’ll go to the line that’s what the wild cats need to do they need to get some of these Rattlers in foul trouble we talked at the start of the

    Game right that this is a shallow Rattler bench only 11 players available and yet only uh jatavius eatman has three fouls for the Rattlers yeah and I think Grant’s kind of feeling it in terms of his uh overall stamina I think he actually got hit by H when he

    Was going up for that layup down below so I think that’s affecting him a little bit here hopefully he’s okay though head a 70% shooter from the foul line on the season this is his first trip to the line on the day is three for three from

    The floor in the first half and is now two for two from the line up to nine points for jacobe and he could very easily be the fourth wildcat in double figures we got Dyson with 16 Ward with 13 and Harmon with 10 spear ISO ball against Deshawn Dyson

    Goes by him gets a bump and scores that’s an impressive layup by spear impressive shot by spear he’s been you know he’s their leading score and if they’re going to look to get back into this game somebody’s got to take up the scoring you know and Keith Lamar really has in this game

    So we saw that in the first game from the FAMU women’s team right as H turns the ball over Lamar running against Ward and then Ward trips up Lamar and I’m not sure they’ll call that in the act of shooting yeah I don’t think that was an

    On obviously on purpose due to have Ward also kind of slid off and fell it is in the act of shooting so they’ll go to the line and the ref shows him his best layup impression to coach Theus there trying to the is trying to plead

    The case that that was an an active shooting but he’s saying he was carrying it is obviously going for a layup there that’s Lamar misses sh iron he is just two for five from the stripe and two for six from the field today Keith thear and someone who’s averaging 14.3 points a [Applause]

    Game makes the second one but it’s back to a 14-point game here for the wild cats as it’s been pretty much all Rattlers in this second half 12 to six in points yeah it’s been a much slower Pace second half which benefits the winning wild cats but to Ward Ward

    Baseline Up and Under just get get it to go now it’s the Rattlers running the floor coffee gets to his spot and they’ll slow it down they like this ISO play for spear o they now he has to pass the ball and he turns it over py in transition goes to the

    Lane and gets fouled and Zion was wide open in the corner screaming for the ball to put it up for three but jacobe wanted to do all the work himself that’s always annoying as an offensive player when you get open especially if you know you can shoot and

    Then somebody just kind of does a I mean he’s on to going to the line could have been an n one opportunity so it’s not like the end of the world or anything but just one of those seven of eight from the floor to begin half number

    Two and heny misses the first of his two shot penalty his first free throw Miss of the day front iron rolls in gets the Back Spin yep 61 46 spear with Dyson on him again forces Dyson into the screen Deshawn really shadowing him well out beyond the free throw line now it’s

    Chapman going into the lane and leaving the layup short is KJ Parker The Freshman rebound [Applause] I high Zion Flo no just kind of puts it up there it doesn’t make it though and spear has been running this offense long pass catch and shoot three good for Jordan

    Chapman and it’s an 11-point game all of a sudden it’s a little bit closer same thing that happened to the women’s team where the game was really out in way and then the Wildcat offense kind of sputters there’s Deshawn Dyson finally finding his first points to the second

    Half but they’re going to look to try to just fix that up go heading into this uh a move by Grant he blows by Henderson on the spin and the Wildcats really have had no answer for Grant in this second half he’s up to uh 15 the big man making

    Small man moves there oh extra pass oh and one and one as Chapman goes over the top of him great vision by Zion Harmon as he collects assist number eight on the evening yeah Chapman jumps too early every offensive player from here to Nagasaki is going to take it take

    Advantage of a Defender jumping that early goes up and under gets gets the obvious foul call and now we go to a great imediate timeout first one of half number two it’s been all fam you Sabrina what have you seen we could definitely tell that both teams are a bit tired you

    Know the game has definitely slowed down a bit from the first half but I want to sh some light on the Rattlers especially uh Grant um for a big man he’s very fluid it kind of reminds me of being an underdog you know he has those plays where you know those plays don’t

    Typically go in but he’s one that you know usually makes them so it’s really good to see you know somebody down there be able to take that big man move and you know make those shots down there and what do the wild cats need to do defensively with smaller players to

    Defend against someone who is 610 300 they have PL like they have the standard ground because one thing about gr watching him play it doesn’t look like he’s going to back down for anybody no matter what size you are so definitely want to see some more from our wild cast

    In the um bottom half of the before especially in the defense line cuz if we can match up to this level to Grant as well then the points on the bottom are always going to go to Grant come be a part of BCU Athletics and support the cat ey network if you or

    Your business is interested in partnering with us here on the cat ey Network you can reach out to the Wildcats athletic Communications Department of BCU Sports info at cookman doedu that’s BCU Sports info at kman a quarter of the way home in this fourth quarter and already the Gap has

    Been lowered to 14 it was as little as 11 yep Hensen and uh here come the Rattlers we knew they weren’t going to go quietly even down 26 earlier on in the game yeah it’s a rivalry game nobody wants to get blown out in a rivalry game

    You’re obvious going to fight back and at least try to make it respectable even if you don’t win we will start with an and one opportunity for Reggie Ward Jr the Junior from Chicago Illinois up and good Ward started his collegiate career at Riverside City College in Chicago and then transfer here to

    BCU and a steal by jacobe Hy he’s got open floor in front of him and he throws down a two-handed j j j Dam energy reinstalled back in a more what Keith Lamar fouled as he goes through the lane and the wild cats want to know why that’s not a charge [Applause]

    Yeah I’m getting a nod from Sabrina looks like a charge but uh Lamar going to go to the line and that’s what the Wildcats need to do that they did so well in the first half they need to get steals run in transition push the pace because that’s when the Rattlers can’t

    Run with them yeah you know they have 12 steals just to the F uh ratl five so they’ve done a good job of doing that and that’s part of the reason this lead has been so big throughout this game BCU came back with a quick 50 run before

    That free throw from Keith Lamar originally from Stockbridge Georgia Lamar second Team all state player in a top 50 recruit out of the state of Georgia Zion Haron has been a playmaker tonight and look out we just saw a man fly head tap for Reggie Ward oh my

    God did they call a foul they did they call they called a [Applause] foul the referee is trying to explain to coach Theus what happened yeah the players want to review he I mean if that’s that’s I don’t understand about that one so that did not no what’s they scored the basket

    At 70 to 53 so for right now we’ll score it yeah I’m I’m not sure what went on there after the play weird they didn’t call like a tech or anything or on Sports but whoa has a shot blocked off the backboard and almost went in Wildcats on the offensive end again

    No look P Harmon gets his defender in the air step back to the corner he’s got his dancing shoes on underneath to ward he goes by the defender and Reggie Ward Jr Tak a bow son after after probably one of the best plays I’ve seen him more gymnasium with that

    Tunk then immediately getting a tough and one showing it wasn’t a fluke he’s tied for the most points on the team and TI for the most points scored this game and that’s a double double for Zion Harmon 10 points 10 assists yeah and don’t and make no small mention Zion

    Harmon dancing around the defense by himself Coral in them basically into a position where Reggie Ward Jr can take advantage and make a tough layup here it’s been the ward and Harmon show over the past couple of minutes it’s a 102 run for bethon cookman I still can’t get over that dunk

    That was absurd they’ve pushed the lead back to 20 spear attacks nice and is that a travel did he step out of bounds or did they call a foul I’m not they call the foul on Ward that’s his second and again Reggie Theus has a concerned look on his face like what was

    That first I thought he went out of bounds but obviously a foul is called oh Deon McIntyre set the check back in here’s Chapman hand off to spear the native of Gainesville got to play in his hometown earlier this year when the Rattlers played Florida eight to shoot

    12 minutes to go in a game spear hops through misses off the backboard head he grabs it wow cats looking to move the ball in transition heavy backs up and Deshawn Dyson will run the offense and slow it down you got time you’re up 20 no reason to do

    Anything stupid Dyson moves to his left and connects on the triple certainly isn’t stupid when you’re Deshawn Dyson nice step back shot Deshawn Dyson eight of 10 from the floor that’s ridiculous yeah this has been an amazing showing so far for this Wildcat team oh poked away Lamar keeps it off

    Balance shot no good rebound Ward Wildcats a chance to put an exclamation point on this one oh it’s in and out from Zion Harmon that looked good and jaob head he was trying to get that pushback jam but missed the ball oh and then it’s coughed up by eatman oh

    Ohy H makes it look like the NBA dunk contest a little revers damn after that Reggie after that Reggie W dump the noise in here is palpable the energy is insane after that regie war Junior dunk it kind of ruined my mindset of how good a dunk can be that was

    Certainly impressive but he put that man on a sweater a sweatshirt a jacket anything you’d like he has a poster now in his room Sabrina I went to a basketball game and a dunk contest broke out from aun cookman here in the last couple of minutes seeing that honestly if I had to

    Start a little seg of my own Callin dog of the day I honestly feel like Reggie ward has that you know as a sophomore coming into this wild te he is definitely truly making a name for himself the chemistry on this basketball team between the wild cats being a young

    Team is you know impeccable I’m really excited to see what this season has for them uh for for the Rattlers they have you know a lot of work too they trying to catch up with the Wildcat but there’s definitely a show out here the Student Center is definitely loving it alumni is

    Loving it seems like a really good game today what changed after the Rattlers Clos it to 11 for the wild cats push this lead back out to 20 plus I think they were able to catch themselves and see what their mistakes were and you know during that time out with uh coach

    They were able to come together and figure out what what’s going to work for the team to you know get that leag and I think most importantly in my eyes they went back to running the floor in transition exactly there is no BC without you show your support for methun cookman

    Athletics by joining the Wildcat Champions Club today help build a championship culture at pathon cookman you can donate and join at cookman dos scalefunder doccom we figured out thanks to um Boyce soski Who’s down at the table what happened on that after the W dunk was an inadvertent wristle from the

    Referee just an accident he was surprised as well everybody was surprised yeah I don’t think a single person in more gym was expecting that 78 53 and for this Wildcats crowd and maybe student Community this feels like maybe exercising the Demons of the classic a little bit Yeah makes you feel a little

    Bit better when you’re uh when you’re you know beating down on your big uh Upstate Rivals especially when you play them twice and then you beat him twice oh that’s a reachin foul it’s going to go against deont McIntyre who’s into the game trying to rack up some steals McIntyre only credited

    For two so far in the game shy of his usual 3.14 15 9265 only the pi number obviously and only five minutes of Play Time headed into this moment here well he does that means he has two steals in 5 minutes which is still pretty good if he plays about five

    More minutes in the second half he should get to four Steals on average here’s a three from straight on two strong from KJ Parker Wildcats run the floor Harmon already in the front Court he took to three no good and he he shot that three so fast

    Nobody was there for the rebound spear all the way against Harman is that going to be a reach or a shooting foul is the real question it doesn’t matter I believe because they’re in the bonus that’s Zion’s first foul and for someone who plays as hard on both SS of the

    Floor as Zion does it’s always astounds me how few fouls he picks up you know it’s a talent certain people have that skill where they can it’s always to me it’s always more impressive with the big men when they’re able to go an entire game without really getting into foul

    Trouble whatsoever maybe one or you know two when you have players like a Zion Haron running in at you all the time it was a shooting foul we have a request jacobe Hy says shout out to his mom who’s watching so your son’s doing really well yep we

    Promise 14 points for H 21 for Dyson and Ward on just ridiculous shooting splits I mean this has been one of those kind of days is one of those kind of performances Wildcats have the bench in with senica Willoughby Yousef Tamera and deani McIntyre all in the game kick out

    To the top of the key there’s a long three oh hangs on the rim and doesn’t fall in for DJ Carter Hollinger that’s a forward SL Center taking that three and then Willoughby trips up eatman on the way through and I think that’s willoughby’s third yeah it is and we so

    We might see senica come out of the game it hasn’t been the best day for senica Willoughby yeah the sophomore from Philadelphia Pennsylvania spent his freshman year at conto Costa College in California traveled a long way across the country to play his college basketball if you you know you always

    Want your worst night to be on your team’s best because obviously him not H being at the races today isn’t going to ruin this opportunity for the wild but you know things stranger things have happened any given night spear at the line for a one and

    One and he missed the first one but it’s an offensive rebound for eatman Hans Lewis June for three too strong eatman another rebound third bite of the Apple for the Rattlers on this possession leis June with the reverse layup nice pass from Jaylen spear to find him cutting to the basket

    Wildcat will just try and slow the game down 10 minutes to go in the contest up 7857 high post here’s tamerra hand off Dyson pick and pop no good left it short and Dyson’s really the only volume scorer left on the floor for the wild cats he’s tring his shoe

    And then spear sees the empty spot of floor and scores a step back it’s uh certainly not what you’re what your what of your best players to do with the middle of a defensive possession but um I guess if you’re going to pick your battles you choose it when you’re up 20

    Plus Dyson around the screen set by Tamra throws it back for McIntyre McIntyre lost the ball hunts Lewis June the other way against McIntyre goes to the Lane and scores the bucket now the Rattlers play a little bit of full court press here and now they’ve gotten six straight points the starters

    Get back up the Heavy Hitters you’d say into the paint TOA blocking foul he’ll go to the line as coffee didn’t get his feet set that’s his four and that’s the kind of setep play you need when you are at a size disadvantage in the paint right get the

    Defenders to move get the ball to your players on the move so they have an easier time putting that ball up instead of just going through traffic Yousef Tamra has two points today one of two from the field and this is his first trip to the

    Line I don’t and he missed the first one on the season actually he has no free throws before today so this is his first free throw attempts of the year for Tamar originally out of Paris France first chewy colge uses at Northwest Kansas Tech and has only

    Played in now his fourth contest of the Season misses both he played versus Purdue Fort Wayne UCF and Mississippi State before today but he gotten some decent floor time this evening TOA Lewis June to the short corner back out great defensive possession all of those rotations and switches working out

    Stopping them from make it from being able to get that easy look as James Henderson Jr comes in for Tamara that was Matthew Webster The Freshman from Dade City in carolwood Day School in the game now for the Rattlers he wears number 20 Coffey back to Webster that is a tall person Parker

    Drives l a pass LS June into a double team Matthews in and out and and it is Wildcat ball thrown out towards the cheerleaders who immediately avoid the ball bamu on an 80 run over the past three minutes while the bench players have been in the game for the wild

    Cats now Harmon back on the floor hopefully to stabilize a little bit of this offense well we’ve seen them going on the rally going to 80 run before and then immediately kind of oh oh Zion Harmon spin move stop it [Applause] Zion something like that happens and

    Then all of a sudden the energy shifts back for the wild cats KJ Parker The Freshman on the Lakeland and Winter Haven High School has the ball hands off to Lewis June he’s from Lake Worth Parker back out Webster no good and the the crowd expects the Wildcats to run in transition but

    They’re just trying to take time off the clock with a 19point lead and seven and a half to go Willoughby drives kicks Corner Pocket is good for DJ Carter Hollinger call him 3j for that one he actually leads the team in three point percentage if you can believe it

    Or not wide open look and it’s missed by KJ with 37% from three for DJ Carter Hollinger Zion all the way to the cup gets his shot partially blocked and now he’s slow to get up and it’s a five on four for the Rattlers the other way

    Coffee steps into a three and drains it time out methun cookman and Zion getting an earful from coach Theus about taking time off the clock and and finding good shots I’m sure yeah so always as a as a former athlete you never Envy the guys getting

    Yelled at the coach once he played any any sport at a decently high level Sabrina every time that the Wildcats put some of their bench players in the Rattlers seemed to make a little bit of a run how do the Wildcats stabilize here in the last 6 minutes

    It’s a very interesting Play Because when coach had put in their event um players in to play I think the rers was six points in the league straight so it’s very interesting to see the different types of players that we have on our team um maybe so if we work more

    On our defense with the bench players see more of a defense or more um I don’t know how the where to put it just more cleaner if they work I think things would you know even out just a little bit um but I’m pretty sure towards the

    Game though doing right and we’ve seen the wild cats go away from that kind of fastpac style once they push the lead back to to 20 it’s now at 18 they use more half court sets and try to drain some clock a little bit just trying to

    Get out of here right same thing that the uh girls was doing in the game the game earlier before so I see that with Coach it’s kind of very strategic how he plays the game you know from the beginning of the first half of the game

    Towards the second half of the game how he you know tends to Fast Break the team whenever they need to be and how he Clow it down to different types of areas and when he uses zones and when he goes inand so I see that he’s a very

    Strategic coach so and it’s working out for the wild CET so we’ll see what next for um the rers I guess Nike is the official Outfitter of the Von cookman Wildcats Gear Up on the newest PCU Nikey gear at nike.com back/on cookman Wildcats and for the most part Hensen

    The the women’s game was crazy and close and both teams had a chance to win it this game the wild cats took the bull by the horns with about 5 minutes in the first half and have just not looked back since the women had the bull by the

    Horns and then they kind of let the bull run around for a little bit too long and and they had to put it back in the range it was kind of awkward but the the men sers kind of just thrown the bull back into the corner every time the bull

    Tries to get you know a little bit mad here little bit of full court press but the wild cats break it jacobe h is back on the floor for BCU it’s Willoughby Dyson James Henderson DJ and Hy on the floor right now for the Wildcats Carter Hollinger leaves the

    Layup short oh and then the Rattlers want to run the other way with spear for the easy layup Dyson through traffic flashes through the lane and will give it back to senica Willoughby just slow it down Kaya white did the exact same thing against fam earlier today that’s kind of

    Funny dribble hand off to Deshawn will [Applause] reset Dyson Blows By The Defender and rolls it in off the fingertips a pretty layup there taking advantage of the mismatch tying him with Reggie Ward Jr for points it’s spear who’s been the majority of the offense for the Rattlers

    And then the other half of the Rattlers attack and Grant lays that one in Grants up to 17 spear has 2 two but nobody else in double figures for Florida A&M this two-pronged attack isn’t really uh working as well as it could be they’re not taking advantage of the open

    Looks that they’ve been they’re getting consistently enough Dyson into the paint and a knif falling away I guess we’ll call that a layup from James Henderson and then senica Willoughby turns the ball over it’s PCU well I looked down to get a note I didn’t really see what happened there I

    Think we both kind of went oh we’re going to watch him come up court and then senica does a good job getting back possession and then goes immediately to sit down kind of earn that rest I guess as Hy looks to inbound the ball here Willoughby played 10 minutes tonight more than his

    Usual P faceline dancing against Lewis June keeps the dribble going now he’s got to fade away oh he rolls it in off the rim that’s a pretty shot taking advantage of the mismatch that he got and making it 435 to go spear step back swi Aro

    Kind of sounded like he didn’t have grip on the floor for a little bit jacobe head oh he gets fouled to go to the line that might be a flagrant a lot of and I think they did call it it gives a the defibrillator celebration down

    Low L you know that’s a little bit too much you don’t need to do all that you are you know you’re down we understand you’re frustrated but no one wants to see anybody get hurt and that’s what that can end up resulting in the refs

    Are talking about it they may go back to this and look it is a flagrant so H will shoot and then get more shots for the for the shooting foul and he gets the first one Jaylen spear coming into the game averaging just 10 points a game and he

    Has blown that out of the water up to 24 a season high in points for jayin but outside of him and Grant the Wildcats have kept everybody especially Keith Lamar who averaging 142 in check tonight Y and that was definitely offensive plan same thing with the women’s team if you keep their best

    Player from really getting to the game you’re going to have an easier time of it even if they have somebody else who picks up scoring not having that main player is going to mess up their overall scoring output two shots and possession excuse me not four shots my

    Bad uh oh Zion Harmon gets his Defender tied up in knots and scores the reverse layup Jun tried to block it but ended up with his hand inside of the basket so obviously that’s a bump underneath and the bucket for Jaylen spear he’s just going to keep going to that same drive

    With the left hand every time and it’s going to keep scoring as Elijah J gets set the check back in for the Wildcats James Henderson Jr frustrated by that foul he knew better kind of just put his leg up to try to land and gets that foul

    Called but it’s still a 21o lead for we go to the sorry about 19 point lead rather we go to the final media timeout Sabrina what do the wild cats have to do to just kind of settle down and close this one out run the clock at this point

    Just make sure that they’re you know wasting time in the right ways where you know they’re giving all the other players an equal amount of time to Sho but it kind of seems like um fear number 50 on the FAMU team like he’s been doing

    A lot of work 24 points along with Grant the underdog that I you know said earlier before Oh 26 my mistake um so it just seems like he’s really working to get the points back up you know they’re 20 about 18 points now um from catching

    Up with the wild cats but if the wild cats want to continue to keep this lead they need to keep doing what they’re doing if the rers need to continue to catch up to the wild cats they need to press a little bit more the wild cats at 91 points with 356

    To go I’m not sure they’ll score too many more points in this contest but they have been at times a high-powered offense 80 in the win against South Carolina state not 79 against Charleston Southern 96 against in Carnet word and then of course 100 plus against the two trinities 113

    Against Trinity College and 104 against Trinity Baptist and last year in this game in the spring here at more the Wildcats hit a season high for points against FAMU to close out the regular season this team likes playing this FAMU team you know team of transition overall and loves to play in

    This transition type of ball and that’s why we’re up 19 however you know they’re at the line here they’re still four minutes so you know a cold streak from the wild cats and a couple of made threes and that’s all of a sudden only a 10 nine-point lead and then the game is

    Within you know a couple possessions but for that to happen you got to the ratl have to be more offensively consistent and the wild cats have to be much worse defensively and offensively than they’ve been the wild cats break the Press pretty simply there as Sabrina said the

    Rattlers do go to the press to try and force some turnovers but it is the a group including Elijah H back on the floor for methun cookman as they’ll just try and drain the sand through the hour glass screen and three for Zion been a kind of a

    Tough night shooting for Zion even though he’s got 14 points just six of 12 and two of five from Beyond The Arc it’s really been the deson Dyson show today Hans Le J blocked by Jose at The Rim by J Zion gives up the layup passes to Dyson for

    Three nice offensive possession there jacobe head like two possessions ago was calling for an alley from Zion Harmon obviously didn’t go through with it but they’re playing with fun they’re playing with fire right now and they got the hot hand heading in to this last couple minutes and Harmon even though it’s

    Another triple from spear man you we cannot shut him down but um even though Zion has not had the most points scoring today he still found ways to contribute he’s got 11 assists with it go along with his 14 points Zion floater back ey are no good just

    Not his night shooting the ball unfortunately but the Wildcats have picked him up as he looks to pick coffee’s pocket nice move by coffee to get away from two Defenders Lewis June for three that’s a quick six-point run for FAMU 9479 timeout Rattlers that’s one of the

    Problems with that press if it gets broken especially when you overc commit like that you think you’re going to cause a turnover they get a they’re definitely going to have someone open if you got two guys down court it’s just going to be something that happens however you know we going

    Through this game and Wildcats have played very well offensively throughout we’ve seen a lot of offensive consistency from Deshawn Dyson from Reggie W Jr who has seen the court much on this tail end of this game uh Jacob H’s played well Harmon has been an offensive Maestro even through a tougher

    Shooting night Elijah J comes back in a good block there hopefully that will get his confidence up throughout the rest of it to close his game out and going into you know next week 30 points for Jaylen spear is a new career high previously it was a 24o

    Outing two years ago against South Carolina state again spear is a kind of an interesting case where he played his first two College Seasons at bamu transferred to Santa Fe College and then came back to finish his career for the Rattlers in his senior season it’s interesting to think

    About what went to that decision Pro because it’s the same coaching staff so likely just I don’t want to play behind this guy I don’t want to play on the bench I’m going to go start somewhere and then come back possibly something of that nature but you know he’s here he’s

    Balling out tonight but you know it’s not it’s not been enough so far this been game has been a game of runs another 60 run quickly for FAMU on the two trip by spear and the the wild cats just have had the better runs when they’ve come for them especially when

    They’ve gotten that transition offense working now can they break the Press Harmon walks into the front Court 215 to go wild catch is looking to take 30 seconds off the clock with each possession Dyson defender in the air pull up from the elbow Swit that’s a pretty shot Dyson up to

    28 he’s closing in on 30 points and I’m sure he wants to duel jaylen’s fear for the highest scoring player in the game as the Wildcats are closing in on Triple jots Miss underneath but a foul late called as Grant goes to the cup Jose’s confused bemused all types of

    Stuff by the basket right now as Grant gets sent to the line and Grant really I don’t think has been maximized here throughout this game you know you have a guy who has shown that you know he can be a force down there he’s moved a lot of our players he stopped defensive

    Possessions we’re just kind they’re just kind of using them leisurely not as if he isn’t scoring or anything it’s 17 points second most on the team but it just feels like if they used him more and he had higher usage throughout out this game we’re talking about a different

    Situation oh and the Wildcats turn it over as Reggie Ward steps out of bounds trying to break the press and Coach Theus tells him just catch the ball don’t you know you don’t have to immediately try to bust out your dribble moves man just catch it so he can break the

    Press the Rattlers shot 42% from the floor in the first half they’re shooting 65 o in the second that’s a great pass to find spear as Dyson falls down they’re going to press again 9682 with 126 left Wildcat should still have this one well in hand as Dyson goes by Parker

    Floater and whereas Zion Harmon can’t buy a basket Deshawn Dyson can’t miss a basket it’s a 30 piece for Dyson yeah kind of goes anything you can do I can do better after that made that made layup by spear o almost a turnover but Reggie Ward can’t keep his feet Jacob P excuse

    Me can’t keep his feet in bounds all types of out of bounds was there one minute remaining only thing inbounds was his hands oh oh and not sure who that foul is going to be on I think yep it’s a two shot penalty the wild catch having 10 fouls as Harmon I guess

    They’ll say he pushed off to try and grab the inbounds pass and send coffee to the line J for meth cookman has four fouls coffee and Chapman for FAMU has four fouls nobody has fouled out and Jose goes out with his four fouls catching some more rest on the

    Bench J Five Points two of two from the floor one of one from the free throw line three rebounds but four fouls but 100% every on every shot he’s attempted today they just haven’t really been able to get him into a lot of shooting situations no he’s kind of he he had

    Those early shots and then it didn’t really work out afterwards he kind of took that first half off and it certainly made it harder for him to keep scoring stay up to date with everything between cookman athletic by checking out the Wildcats on social media give BCU

    Athletics a like on Facebook and follow the Wildcats on Twitter and Instagram at BCU Athletics for the latest on BCU basketball follow at BCU Hoops on Twitter and Instagram you’re also going to want to give the ladies a follow at VCU wbb and I’m sure the socials have gone

    Crazy today with highlight clips and uh score updates and everything else and you’ll want to head to B athletics.com this evening for a full game recap of both of our games today the women squeak by the men have been more in control here in the second half they outscored

    FAMU 5433 in the first half it’s been 5144 for the Rattlers in the second half with the the wildcat’s foot for foot fully off the gas for the last 10 minutes or so and when you’re and when you’re fir off the gas is still within Striking Distance of the other team that

    Really shows you how the other team’s been playing and how well that the wild cat offense has been this is just the start of conference play we get a home double header next week Grambling State on the 13th and Southern on the 15th as we get three straight home games

    To close out conference play or to open up conference play here on the cat ey network no fouls from the Rattlers Dyson into the front Court 50 seconds left still running plays here the Wildcats can take 20 more seconds off it they’re just going to go to a high ball screen

    Action to run some clock P floater off balance no good Parker with open space to run into and he misses the layup offensive rebound for Chapman and he is fouled and the Wildcat bench doesn’t like that one they thought that DJ Carter Hollinger was straight up yeah

    But the referee said he came down over the top of him I mean at this point you kind I mean you got to call them obviously I’m not saying you shouldn’t but at a certain point it’s like all right guys we’re going to really we’re calling that one okay but you know

    Except for his stats Chapman makes that has uh been in some foul trouble today four fouls for him only three points just one field goal attempt and now his second trip to the free throw line for a man that just averages 3.1 points per game originally from besser Alabama Wildcats call

    Another timeouts and with 27 seconds left I’m not sure why if if I’m coach Theus I’m calling this one maybe to practice a play and game situation that’s the only one I can really think of cuz you can yell at him after the game if you really have to yell about it

    Something it’s 20 something seconds left but he certainly is yelling about something now 26 seconds left to the wild cats just get it across F court and hold or they do they try and put one more Basket in to go to Triple digits I’m pretty sure they’re putting one more

    Basket in I can kind of see the is pointing at his whiteboard I don’t know if the people at home can see it but I mean that’s the only reason to really call timeout in this situation is if you’re going to run a play or something of that

    Nature the Wildcats will improve to 6 and8 and 1 and0 in swag play the Rattlers will fall to 2 and 10 and 0 and one in conference as some of the crowd starts to file towards the exits here at more J it’s been a great crowd for both

    Games I was shocked by the stands being full for the start of the women’s game and the Wildcat nation has brought the noise today in more gymnasium respecting women’s Hoops in more gymnasia as I think a set play is going to be no coach the calls to just hold

    The ball 13 seconds left he will not go for 100 points and This one belongs to the maroon and gold it’s a wildcat sweep over Florida A&M here at gymnasium yeah I mean I guess you don’t want any problems you know rivalry stuff you don’t want anybody getting into a

    Fight or something that’s the only thing like in that situation I guess to you know hold the ball don’t score any more points you know we’re up whatever but you know interesting situation timeout whatever nonf Factor game ends all the same and as you said belongs to the wild cats of Boon cookman

    8 86 your final score for the last time today we go to saprina petite home what are your thoughts on today’s game uh this just was the Battle of the better team and the wild cats came up on top um it just show honestly to me it

    Just showed a lot of sportsmanship cuz they could have did the last 13 seconds to made a play went to 100 but the fact that they just kept it at 98 was really a good call but it was a great great game between both teams um they both had

    Their players that did their things both had mistakes but you know the wild came up to um Co Styles is different you know you see what works and you see don’t just you know get back better for the next the wild cats one and0 in the swag but tougher

    Tasks lie ahead especially next weekend with Grambling and Southern coming into town but that’s next weekend this is this weekend and it’s a wildcat sweep on day one a swack play here are your scoring totals for the contest a career high 32 for Jaylen spear gr had 18 Cofe

    Got into double figures with 13 Lamar had nine leis June also had nine Chapman three and Parker to eatman Webster and Sham played but did not score for the Wildcats Deshawn Dyson had a 30 piece of his own 30 points on 11 of 22 shooting

    Five of 11 for three-point range w at 21 H 17 Harmon 14 and 10 for a double double pulce five Carter hinger four McIntyre three Tamera and Henderson two Wildcats were actually outrebounded by the Rattlers in the game 31-28 and 8 to6 on the offensive glass but they forced 16 Florida A&M turnovers

    Right in line with their season average of forcing 19 turnovers per game four blocks to one for bethon cookman off of those 16 turnovers the Wildcat SC 28 points off of turnovers but limited the Rattlers to just nine points off of 10 bethon cookman turnovers fast break

    Points 34 for the Wildcats 22 for the Rattlers bethon cookman racked up 14 steals which is right on their season average and continues to be the best in the conference 50 points in the paint for bethon cookman most of that on The Fast Break points dunon lamps and second

    Chance points 16 for BCU nine for the Rattlers which is impressive considering we were outrebounded on the offensive glass yep I mean this has been an amazing performance for the wild cats I mean rebounding wise obvious obviously you want to win that battle more but that’s the only real nitpick thing you

    Might have you let off the gas in the second half that’s why the score is kind of closer everyone played really well uh Deshawn Dyson had a career night or at least a night for his highlight reel that Reggie Ward junr dunk is going

    To replay in my head for the rest of the week the jacobe head reverse Jam I mean just a lot of B cool basketball stuff happened this game and alyo and all so you know as we serenade you as this game closes out here in more gym gynasium final score

    9886 oh W for the Bon cooking Wildcats continuing to be undefeated at home in both women and men’s basketball which is a far cry from the last two years when you know the wild cats have been up and down for both uh men’s and women’s programs women’s on a really hot

    Trajectory men’s hoping to get there maybe this year maybe next year but it’s a good start to conference play for bethon cook and that’ll do it for us here at more gymnasium for cat ey Network director Eugene Robinson producer Chris Shaw our analysts Hensen white and Sabrina petitte H my name is
