Xavier Crawford update

[Da Coach]

Xavier Crawford was only at Bradley a few weeks, late in the summer of 2006, before moving on to 2 years at Yuba College, and is now a junior at Cal-State Northridge. He will likely be mostly a backup this season, as Northridge returns a very good center in Tremaine Townsend, and was picked to finish first in the Big West Conference.

XC's team, Cal State Northridge is playing on ESPN2 right now in the Big West Conference tournament final. They're up big over Pacific early, so XC might actually get some garbage minutes tonight if CS-N continues to dominate.

Is he on the bench? I don't see him.

[BradleyBrave]

Nevermind! XC just fouled a guy on a 3. Potential 4 point play!

And now XC finds the bench again.

FWIW, Xavier Crawford averaged 6 minutes, 1.7 ppg, 1.5 rpg, .1 apg, .429 FG%, .800 FT%.

XC has scored a grand total of 2 points (1 FT in 2 separate games) since December 29, 2008.

Not sure we missed out on much with XC.

Hersey's son is on the Pacific team. Haven't seen him yet, but hope he gets some playing time tonight. He hasn't played a lot this season.

Thanks Chico, I had forgotten about that. Now I am hoping for a blowout so we can get a look at some guys with some BU ties (Hawkins and Crawford).

[amettrick]

Yeah I remember being bummed when we didn't get XC, but as it turns out we didn't miss out on much.

It would be nice to see both XC and Lil' Hawk get some minutes in this game though, It would make me more interested. haha.

So, is it okay for Cal-State Northridge to play "matador defense?"

Oooooh, I made a pun.
