In response to Ever True
Not very often in Ivy League play that Mike gets to empty the bench at the end of the game.
The turnovers stand out in this one - the Lions turned the ball over 22 times, almost 29% of their possessions. Even better, 14 of those turnovers were steals. Ferrari made his presence felt on his return by contributing four steals on his own.
Defense lead to offense, to the tune of 34 points off of turnovers. We also did a much better job of hitting the offensive boards today. Jaylan had a lot to do with that, grabbing 5 of our 13 offensive boards. This has to be the blueprint for us moving forward - we played with a lot of energy on both ends. Towards the end of the game, the Columbia commentary crew even noted that Brown was getting after it, despite the game being done and dusted.
Choh continues to play at a 1st Team All-Ivy level - long may it continue. Cowan was a nice boost, with three treys, which either means he's heating up or about to go cold for the next two weekends. Wojcik had another solid shooting night - would love to see him heat up. Their efforts, combined with double digits from Owusu-Anane, helped make up for a quiet night from Lilly.
Penn and Cornell also pick up wins tonight, so good to get this one tonight. We need to follow up with a strong effort against Cornell next week.
