Great to see Wojcik get is stroke and confidence back with 7-11 with 3-7 on 3’s. Gainey showed good touch inside with 4-4 effort. Martin praised the 17 assists on 31 baskets. After next opponent, Merrimack, plays Brown on Tuesday, they are off to Gonzaga on Thursday, followed by Indiana on Sunday.

Loved the win. Ball moved very well and they got over 50 pct on assist rate, which is a lot for this team. Nana and Ferrari were both fantastic and great to see Wojcik have this kind of game where he delivered from all over the court. Sacred Heart is not a good defensive team and Brown did what good teams do by exploiting it. They had them off balance all game.
And defensively they were very strong. Created chaos.
Women also picked up a nice win at Holy Cross. That’s a young team with a new coach and looked like from the box score they really tied them up defensively.
Also - since when do we have a game vs. Gonzaga??

I believe JBears is talking about Merrimack's schedule following Tuesday's game against Brown.
Speaking of which, would love a win to ensure that we finish the non-conference schedule above 500. - would be a nice marker to have going into tough four game road stretch to open Ivy play.

KenPom has them on the losing side of the next 4 games, but Merrimack is by 2 and Vermont is by 3. Hopefully, they can get 1 or both of those games.
I also think they have a chance at Maryland, since the Terps fired their coach a few days ago and the team is in a bit of a slump.
