Re: Elvin, Xander, and Jake
Reason they did not start according to Coach Davis is for infractions committed against established team standards. No further details on exactly what, but Davis added that he was already concerned by the team practice Thursday and Friday.
He said that the underwhelming practice sessions carried over unfortunately to the Marist game Saturday; that lots of work needs to be done on his part and on the teams part to reestablish their efforts.
While the game seemed to be played at a level of high intensity, too much of that activity was disorganized by bad passing, bad positioning and even worse shooting, including missed shots in close!
And yes, Screen has had better games. He matched up with their grad, 5th yr. 6' 11" center, a long armed, wiry type, who led the team inside and outside, the latter with some deadly 3pt shots from the left corner all afternoon.
Shortly into the game, Davis inserted the three players into the game, Xander Rice for example, who ended up playing the most minutes of anyone on either bench for the game, including overtime.
All said, the Bison had the game to win with the last two shots and seconds on the clock, with a potential last and winning shot in and out of the basket in regulation time. The overtime simply displayed the deficiencies Bucknell had most of the game.
