It was a great game to watch. Nothing stands out to me as "The Difference" from today's game for the Griz, just a hard fought game where the Griz came out on top.
Matt Martin picked up 4 fouls (I think 3 on offense, a couple unbelievable). Saw a lot of 3 guard action with Criswell, Martin and Mathews that seemed pretty effective. Farr did not play at all.
Seyfert got the game going with some nice defense, and rebounding, then Davis got his inside game working, then Dloughy. Dloughy had a dunk that I think he might have jumped from the 1/2 court line to make :lol: it was awesome. Anybody know why Eastern got the T after that play?
Easley was clutch shooting free throws at the end and clinched the game for the Griz. Seems like everyone else who got to the line more than once made about 1/2 their free throws. Someday this is going to kill the Griz. Even clutch shooters like Davis and Criswell were off.
The crowd wasn't huge (3300), but they were loud thanks to the officiating and some nice plays by the Griz, and it was fun to be part of. The lower seating area looked to be almost completely full, which was nice to see.
Hopefully Krysco will get his first HC win over MSU. At least a Montana team is guaranteed a spot in the finals, which is nice.
