Terps Cruise over Niagara 86-70 in Round 1 of the NIT

For the 1st half this was actually a close game —tied at 35. But the depth and team speed eventually wore down the visitors.

Faust seemed to be playing with great intensity driving the bucket at every chance. Both Nick and Set finished with 15 points.  Alex was pretty quiet tonight though seemingly he was double or triple teamed every time he touched the ball.

Turgeon used the press throughout the game and eventually it wore down Niagara. Nick and Jake alternated at the point of the press. Jake is developing a nice dish off game as he drives the bucket. Turgeon praised the defensive efforts of PeShon tonight. PeShon also had 6 assists and but 1 turnover.

Logan has 5 threes tonight. The Terps clearly dominated the 2nd half. Antoine Mason, son of former NBA star Anthony Mason finished with 24 points for Niagara. I had a chance to talk with Coach Mihailich from Niagara after the game  Memo-48

4051 attended the game tonight. The round of 16 game will be here at Comcast Thursday night at 7PM.

    Totally different team when Peshon is playing with confidence. Hopefully he can keep it up and carry it over to next year.
