Wichita currently hosting Hawaii Pacific
Shockers up 23-15 a bit more than midway thru 1st half..one of their message board threads claims this is how easy they'd stomp Bradley this year!

Northern Iowa had a closed "secret" scrimmage today vs. Wisconsin
Wisconsin reportedly "won" and we know they led 32-24 at half courtesy of one of the Wisconsin players who tweeted this picture of the halftime scoreboard
(it'll probably get removed since I think this is a violation)

Wisconsin's Zach Bohannon needs to get a new cell phone.
I am constantly amazed at the poor quality of video by some cell phones.

Missouri State 88 - William Jewell 62- Camyn Boone 19 pts


Evansville 51 - Wabash 36 with 17 min to go
Balentine 14 pts on 13 shots

And that was without Fred VanVleet playing. Not to mention 3 walkons got tons of minutes. The 14 turnovers don't worry me. Ron had 3 of then. He won't do that when Fred is running the point instead of him.

Shocks won't miss a beat this year if they stay healthy.

I also like the fact that they score 91 and their leading scorer had 13 points. Balance!

[tornado]

I agree they look talented and deep - it is what Bradley is now building towards.. and I hope we can catch up soon!

I hope so too. I think you guys will get there!!!!

DePaul played an exhibition in their on-campus McGrath Arena...
it seats about 3500 but their reported attendance today is 1230 -- that is bad...
if they can't get more than 1230 into their on-campus arena then that big downtown arena could sound pretty hollow...

You are probably referring to my quote where I commented that the guys on the floor could start for Bradley. It was four freshman and a senior. It was more about the inexperience on the court then it was about competition against the Braves. No disrespect intended.

[tornado]

and none really taken - we know we're gonna be the punching bag for the rest of the Valley - just hope our guys use it to learn to punch back


Evansville beat Wabash 95-65
Balentine 20 pts/8 asst, Mockevicius 11 pts/12 reb - Aces had 15 turnovers

Drake 95 - McKendree 78
Kale Abrahamson 5-9 from the arc and 22 pts, attendance 2666

DePaul played.....

hey -- Just heard from David Molinari's family that David IS ON SCHOLARSHIP at DePaul for his senior season, so let Dave Reynolds know to add David to his list of DI scholarship players!

one other note- past BU recruit & Peoria Central star Bobo Drummond will play for University of Southern Indiana today when they face ISU in an exhibition

[tornado]

Midway thru the 1st half:
Illinois State 28 - Southern Indiana 24
For USI - former Bradley recruit Travis Britt just hit a three and Chicagoan George Edwards has 10 pts on 5-6-
For ISU -- Akoon-Purcell has 9 & ISU hitting 2-10 on 3-pointers (? Their Achilles heel?)



Likewise U of I is about midway thru the 1st half
Illini 19 - Illinois-Springfield 17
U of I hitting just 14% from the arc

[tornado]

5 min to go in 1st- ISU trails 34-30

[tornado]

3:48 left in the 1st half at Illinois State:
Redbirds 35 - Southern Indiana 34
Devaughn Akoon-Purcell has scored 8 of the last 10 points for the Redbirds
He has 14 and is carrying them - George Edwards is doing a ton for USU - 12 pts/7 rebs so far

[tornado]

ISU now pulling a way a little but getting a good test from a good DII
8 minutes left, ISU is ahead 68-57 - they've improved their 3-pt shootig a bit but still only 4-18 (22%)

Ilini also pulling ahead - now 69-55 with about 11 minutes to go - balanced scoring
