This game is Youth Day and Mascot Day and there is also a dance cheer clinic.  There's also some kind of discount on kid's tickets, so maybe they'll get as decent crowd.

 

Don't forget, it's a 2:00 tip-off.

I think some guys in Akron jerseys forgot about the tip off time

At first it was definitely was hot shooting. Now it’s turnovers and not getting down the court quick enough 

[Reslife4Life]

9 misses for WMU and they have 5 offensive rebounds

Very important question -  what's the fish mascot?

 

[Reslife4Life]

Don’t think I’ve seen us go offense-defense subs in the first half like this 

[Reslife4Life]

Now that’s how a player of the year gets you back into the game

They actually called a dribbler for a carry.  What's next, a call for 3 seconds?

Maybe a call for stepping on the line when defending an inbound

[csims0917]

Fantastic run

We've struggled all season in securing defensive rebounds. Way too many 2nd chance points.

How did Amani Lyles turn himself into such an effective three-point shooter?

I think him coming out of nowhere helped because defenses don’t really guard him out there. When he made those open ones early in the year it solidified his confidence in the shot. The mental aspect is probably bigger than we expect

I don't know if it's factual or not, but it feels like there are much fewer charges called than previous years. Not just in Akron games either.

Great response by the Zips. The MAC does appear to be much improved.

“We are going to get every team’s best shot” not kidding today

29 point turnaround after the Zips were down by 14.
