Game 23- Eastern Michigan

[clarkwgriswold]

The Zips head to Ypsilanti Tuesday night for a 6:30 game against Stan Heath’s Eagles.  Going into Saturday’s game against UMASS, the Eagles are 9-12.  The Zips beat EMU at the JAR on December 19th to open the MAC season.  EMU has been wildly inconsistent, beating teams like UMASS and Cincinnati yet losing by 35 to Central Michigan.  Last week they lost to PCCC by one in double OT then turned around to lose by 35 to EMU.  In that game, CMU scored 62 second-half points while limiting EMU to 29 points in the final 20 minutes!

 

Mohammad Habnab leads EMY in scoring and rebounding at 14.3 ppg and 8.1 rpg.  He's second in the MAC in double doubles.

EMU lost Hart.  They took Kent to double OT, and in the process lost two more players.  One big guy took a hard fall on his shoulder, screamed out in pain, and the trainer embraced him and took him off the court.  Another guy messed up his ankle and limped to the locker room.   Then they lose by 35 to Central.

I saw that they were shorthanded but didn't know the details.

only knew because I watched the game.  just like anyone who watched Pollock knew Marcia Gay Harden would win the Oscar.

Mohammad Habhab is tough. 6-9 & skilled.

I never saw Pollock, but I did see Almost Famous. Kate Hudson should have won. 😉

Still mad over The Big Chill losing out to that awful Terms of Endearment. 🤣

Yes, he'll look good in a Big 12 or Big East uniform next year. He's already played himself out of EMU being able to afford retaining him.
