Da Coach, I did a little checking on this Redlands team, and found that they are a DIII school with a track record of playing a fast-paced, high scoring style of ball somewhat like Grinnell, where they attempt to score more than the opponent but make very little effort to defend the opponents' shots.


Here are a few notes about this team:
"Basketball at the University of Redlands is all-out excitement. Bulldog Basketball features a fast-paced, high-scoring style of play that makes it one of the most unique systems in the entire coupntry."

Take a look at the scores of their ball games from last season, 2005-2006:

L 123-162 (this was their highest scoring game)
L 125-148
L 130-142
L 122- 135
and so on....in fact they lost their FIRST SIXTEEN games giving up up to 154 points to their opponents, then they started to win a few.
They ended their season 8-26.

Personally from what I see, they are an incredibly easy team to beat, since they simply let you shoot and hope to catch you by surprise on the other end. They actually don't always shoot a lot of threes like Grinnell, they just try to speed to the hoop.
But there were some games that they launched 60 3-pointers.

Here's another team that's doing some scoring.

VMI, a D-I team has scored 156, and 144 in their past two games.

Last game they launched 109 shots, the game before that 118 shots!
As a team they have launched 239 3-point shots in just FIVE games!!!!
