Montana @ Seattle game thread

Good game by the griz to come back like that on the road and pull it out. Really like our big men in Krslovic and Breunig. Nice to have a couple guys who can handle an entry pass down low. Very athletic.
 
The GRIZ managed to pull it out in a tight contest. Both teams struggled from the line. Fortunately the GRIZ executed better down the stretch. Huge game from Gfeller. Solid game from Breunig, great 1st half, not so good 2nd half. This team has to find it's offense. Shooting and turnovers are hurting the GRIZ so far this season.

Nice W though.
 
Dunn-13 pts, 3 of 4 from the foul line in last minute. Brunig scored 15. Gfeller had a career high 15 pts (5 of 6 from three). I'll try to summarize some of DeCuire's comments in the post-game.
 
Some quotes from Travis DeCuire post-game. Not fully word, for word. But accurate.

"Gfeller was huge for us tonight with 15 points. It was exciting to see Brandon return to his home state and get it done in front of friends and family like he did."

"We got the shots we wanted off of their pressure, but just didn't put them down."

"We outboarded Seattle in second half 15-9. I thought in the second half we did a better job of adjusting defensively. They were getting some long rebounds on us early & it was just a matter of getting into position on defense first, and then going for the ball."

"Two things I left on the board at halftime. We talked about offensive execution... get guys in the right places, we'll get good shots. We did that late in the game when it counted. When they collapsed on Martin, then we popped it out to Gfeller again."
