Game 2- St. Bonaventure

Fresh off of an opening game win against Cedarville, the Zips head to Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse this Tuesday at 2:00 face the Bonnies of St. Bonaventure.  While we all like to complain about the OOC schedule, this is a very solid OOC opponent. 

 

The Bonnies are one of the very few teams in the NCAA to not yet play a game.  The Zips were one of less than 30 teams without a game played going into Cedarville.  The Bonnies opener on 12/12 against St. Francis has been cancelled.  The Bonnies were 19-12 last year, playing in the A10, and finished 5th in the conference.  They return their entire starting 5 and four of their top 5 scorers. There are no seniors on the team.

 

The Bonnies are led by All-Conference guard Kyle Lofton who led St. Bonaventure in scoring last season with a 14.1 point average in over 38 minutes of action a game.  He is a good three point shooter at 34% and his assist numbers were the best in the A-10  at 6.0 assists per game.  

 

Here's a really solid preview of the Bonnies-

Curious to see the rotations Tuesday against a good opponent.  Groce usually has a number of less competitive games to test rotations and combinations.  Here, there's no such luxury.

 

Very interested to see or hear what's up with Currie.  4 garbage minutes against Cedarville.  Recovering from sickness?  Attitude adjustment by the coaches?  Not yet up to speed?  Hopefully, Tuesday will bring some answers.
