SWSiouxMN Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 UND moves on to the middle part of their 3 game homestand and looks to gain ground in the standings as they host Portland State. UND is 4-3 all time against PSU since joining the Big Sky, with a 3-1 record in Grand Forks. PSU has an anchor in Forte, who averages 18 points, 9 boards on the season. Should be a fun matchup between him and Drick. They can score (tied for 3rd in the conference in points), but most of their damage is done on the inside. Not the greatest 3 point shooting team or at the free throw line either. I'm looking to see if Geno can't bounce back after a tough few games. Other Games: SAC (4-10) @ UNC (5-9) MSU (7-7) @ Weber (12-2) Montana (12-2) @ ISU (9-5) *Pull for the Griz in this one The call: UND cannot afford to drop this one at home if it has any aspirations of getting a 1st round bye. UND gets their offense in a better flow and the defense stifles enough to get a nice win. UND 79-68 Also of note: Hooker should at some point pass 1,000 points for his career during this homestand. He needs 26 more to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDPritch Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Yah, Geno really struggled shooting-wise last Sat. Not a good night. If Hooker doesn't get 26 pts total in the two games then I'm guessing it won't be a sweep for the Sioux this wknd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best players on UND's team need to play like the best players, especially at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWSiouxMN Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Anybody got a status update on Seales? I hope he was just held out against UNC as a precaution to give him an extra week so he is good to go for the stretch and Reno. Need his contribution off the bench.
