Pilots @ Seattle U 2/5 7:10 PM

So... the Pilots have jumped out to a 19-4 lead, Nem already has 10.

Awesome start, avoiding any letdown from the SMC/Zag games.

47-35 after the first media timeout of the second half.

...and 47-40 Pilots at the 12 minute media timeout.

53-42 at the 8 minute media. Some good plays, but 18 turnovers so far. :-/

68-52 at the final media timeout. Jasonn with a two-handed jam just before the TO.

Final: 71-55 Pilots.

Very sloppy from both teams, with 20+ turnovers each. Lots of forced passes over the top that had little or no chance of connecting. Of course, that must have been the plan, because there were a lot of others that worked. 17 wins in the book, with 6 games to go until the tournament.

U.g.l.y. But a win on the road is a win...

Hopefully we got all of the turnovers out of us... we cannot do that again next week.

Glad to see the freshman get some minutes, including Thieleke...

It is cool that Luke Sikma is 3 rebounds away from being UP's all time leader. We're witnessing Pilot history with the senior years of Sikma and Stohl.

@midmajority would call that an #omgdunx.

Mesa, was there any at mid-court afterward? Or is it only okay to do that if you've been doing it for a long time?

And don't forget "Newt-son" who set a UP Career record today.

That had to be the ugliest game I have seen in a long time. Even with that the game never really felt out of hand. And you have to wonder what Cameron Dollar was thinking letting his players give Jared as much space as they did (Not that I'm complaining).

In a lot of ways it felt like the team was experimenting a bit, working on different sets and whatnot, but it was a great opportunity to give extended minutes to some of the bench guys (Jared, Nem, Kramer and Luke rested for large chunks of the second half) It was also really cool that Rev let all 5 freshman play those last 2 minutes, hahaha maybe Thielke can give Jasonn some tips on how to block a 3 pointer

I can't imagine what got into Douglas, as he has had trouble at times with TO's, but that had to take the cake.
