Say it with me now... Gritty. Resilient. Road. Win.

82-57 is a "gritty" win? Surprisingly... yes. We started ice-cold from 3 and Monmouth was super-physical underneath the hoop. But the guys (once again) weathered the storm and won big once the Hawks ran out of gas.

- "Every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings" and every time a lead shrinks, Zach Martini hits a three.

- Allocco is still averaging 19ppg on ~70% shooting. What a red-hot start.

- This Iron Five's ability to stay out of foul trouble in very physical games is so impressive. Only Peters got in trouble and it didn't hurt us. Meanwhile, the Hawks got into foul trouble early and let us get easy points at the line.

- The only real negative is that Davis doesn't look ready for prime time yet. Huggins looked improved though; he can help on defense and the boards. I guess we got spoiled by last year's freshmen being so advanced.
