Rok has 5 boards already... and no FGA, while HU is 2/12 overall (mostly JWF 1/5, and Eli 1/3)... get other guys involved! They don't play well when JWF put it on himself that much. Rok is efficient when he gets fed inside. Get others involved too, especially when you're not hitting.
Pemberton heating up... saving HU right now with 14 of their 19. Down 20-19. JWF still cold, just 1/7.

Pemberton vs. his teammates: twice as many makes (6-3) on half the shots (10 vs. 20)

How does every other CAA broadcasting crew still call us "Hawfstra" when we've been in the league for 17 years now? Irritating.

Finally shut the the t.v. off the transmission kept going into freeze mode but probably a good thing certainly one of the worst halves I've seen.

Elon leads 28-24. Pemberton has 17 points, which is more than the next three scorers on either team combined. Grant Riller has 28, which is the same amount as the next three scorers on William & Mary and College of Charleston combined. I wonder if there's been a Division I player before Riller this season to have at least 28 points at halftime while his team wasn't winning.

I don't know what's worse, the feed or our performance.

That's crazy. Riller is keeping pace with Elon and outscoring Hofstra right now. lol
10/14 fg, 4/5 from 3, 4/4 FT.

But to answer your question, I would be no. First of all, how many D-I players have even scored 28 at the half to begin with? What a half!

You're right but the feed sucks. I have to keep closing the window and reopening it for the video to work. Ugly and frustrating!

Now on a 13-2 run, was a switch flipped?

Completely different team showed up in the second half.

This feed is horrific. Says "Final" but Elon only has 48 points. Hate when they don't update the halftime score.

Awesome performance. Cant believe they actually played that defense thing. Good job tonight.

No excuse for this, I'm going to let Jeff Hathaway know....I don't know who would put up with the constant need to refresh other than you and me!

Hopefully this wasn't the outlier.

Did anyone mention what happened to Dawkins, he didn't play tonight.

Great win, we're playing our best basketball of the season the last 7 games. Bottom line tonight was we didn't let them get great shots, Elon got out of rhythm, and we blew the doors off that cruddy gym in the second half.

We have to win games by never taking the foot off the pedal. Throughout the season, by slowing down the pace late, we've let teams back in games, and we've lost games we should have won. We slowed the pace a little tonight, but I thought the difference was we kept looking for quick scoring chances, got Rok a few nice baskets, and really forced Elon to start heaving prayers. We're beginning to thrive in transition on both sides of the ball.

A lot of negativity after the Charleston game, which I think was the appropriate reaction because people are starting to get the feel that this team is very good and we really let them off the hook by not playing our game late. Tonight was the perfect remedy for a heartbreaker, have to follow it up at UNCW, who will be reeling after that beatdown we showed them last week.

Eli really saved us tonight. The team played a lousy first half. We had no business being down only 4 at the break but Eli kept us in it. Then JWF heated up in the 2nd half and Elon never got going. They were missing one of their best players tonight but I'm not complaining. We need to catch some breaks here and there and we took advantage tonight.

I was hoping for a split on the road this week, and now with this win under our belt, Saturday becomes a house money game. Win that and we are in great shape heading into the showdown with WIlliam & Mary next Thursday. Just wanna keep that 7 seed as far in the rear view mirror as possible..
