Game 32, 2017-18: vs La Salle, A10 Rd 1 (3/7)

Did I see the box score correctly? 16 assists combined for both teams? Is that even possible?

You realize that this was the #11 vs #13 game?

I do. And in the 11 vs 14 game GW/Ford, they already have 15 by half. I don't care what game it is, 16 is ridiculously low, particularly when a team scores a lot in the post like Lasalle did.

It's also ridiculously low for this UMass team. One of the statistical hallmarks of MM's UMass team versus previous DK UMass teams is the increase in assists as a percentage of FG.

I thought I heard one of the announcers was former PC coach Tim Welsh. Unless it was a different Tim Welsh. Or it could have been someone completely different and the shitty audio made me hear things.

I heard one of the announcers refer to the other one as "coach", so unless there's another coach Tim Welsh.

With about two minutes to go, they were talking about how well Lasalle was going to match up against Mason. Tim Welsh is an acquaintance of a friend of mine and I can assure you that he is a first class douchebag.
