anyone behind dangerous definitely floor game good hard job key northwest player regional shoot shut
They are a dangerous team, and they will have anyone on the floor shoot at anytime, so it's hard to key on one player and shut them down. They also do a really good job at home. It is definitely a game we need to win. Northwest is right behind us in the regional poll.
defensive game good opportunity several work
This game should be a good opportunity for us to work on several things. We still have some work to do to become a 40-minute defensive team.
control few free last level love opponents pride shooting state talent team themselves throws ways
Pittsburg State is always an interesting team to play because they love to control the tempo, and they pride themselves on shooting more free throws than their opponents attempt. Their talent level isn't at the same place it's been the last few years, but they still find ways to win.
boards coming concern good job run shots team
We have done a better job on the boards lately. That was a concern we had coming into the season. I think we could go on a run if we could just solidify our defense, do a good job of contesting shots and play smart, team basketball.
