Halftime

When asked about Lebsock's 5 3-pointers, Coach Martin said "we're a zone team this year, and sometimes that's not a pretty thing".

So when it is not working, like tonight, why not go away from it?

we are down by 11.... lmao.. no wonder why this sport can only get 600-700 fans a game... losing that bad to a naia team is never good. even when we were d2 it wasnt good... even if were were a naia team it isnt good. this is absurd.

Final.

I had to leave at halftime. O.K., I didn't "have to", but struggling for the second game in a row against a DAC opponent was just too much for me to bear.

[bincitysioux]

I thought it looked like Monsebroten played pretty well tonight. Hit a couple key baskets, and handled the ball nicely.

This Sioux team will make a serious run for the DAC title come tournament time.

This team is awful and it starts at the top with the head coach. Was at the Valley City game. How does a D1 team, at home, play ZONE against a NAIA school until 4+ minutes left in the game?? Absolutely pathetic! You can't tell me that UND didn't/doesn't have better athletes on the floor to at least play a solid man-to-man defense against these NAIA schools and force the action from a defensive standpoint.

It was observed on SDSU's fan message board (by a member -- not me! -- who has great ability to get down to some basic facts) that the transition is probably the most difficult for men's basketball. SDSU's woeful experience in transition may be the rule while NDSU's remarkable success is the exception. I see USD going through their struggles and it looks like UND is having some rough times, too. At least you're getting "W's" -- beats the heck out of a loss to some of your competition. We see a light at the end of the tunnel for our men's team at SDSU but it's been a tough few years.
