“It’s like, try to score in the first 12 seconds of the shot clock and just go and play, play fast. I think it’s a fun way and I think the crowd enjoys that. We’re not gonna play a power game…”
Bonnies freshman Dominick Welch posted on Twitter Tuesday that he has returned to practice, six weeks after suffering a foot injury in SBU’s Cayman Islands Classic loss to Georgia State. While his return to game action is still unknown, Bonaventure is close to having a full scholarship roster for the first time this season…
Tyus Battle laughed at the exchange, laughed at the technical foul, perhaps laughed at how easily his team handled its de facto “revenge game.” The junior, who scored 10 points in less than five minutes on Saturday, seemed to enjoy watching Jalen Poyser receive punishment for the frustration he helped orchestrate…
Courtney Stockard led the Bonnies with five assists in the eye of the zone, the only time in his career he has led the team outright in that category. As the go-to scorer on this season’s squad he will be expected to score more than seven points and will certainly attempt more than five field goals…
In the midst of a St. Bonaventure non-conference slate that has been decidedly more rebuild than reload, the stunting injury factor was a legitimate rationale for many of the team’s defeats. When seniors Courtney Stockard and LaDarien Griffin returned to the court, Bona fans had reason to believe the wins were going to pile up…
The Bonnies have played some palpitation-inducing, nail-biting games over the years. They played another one at Patrick Gym when a 14-point lead dissolved, Courtney Stockard fouled out and their young squad tried to overcome one too many mistakes. SBU couldn’t pull it off, dropping an 83-76 decision to the Catamounts and falling to 4-7…
Bonnies coach Mark Schmidt said on his weekly radio show that senior forward LaDarien Griffin is also expected to return on Bona’s road trip. Moreaux and Griffin will give a 4-6 SBU squad 10 healthy scholarship players for the first time all season. Freshman guard Dominick Welch remains out indefinitely with a foot injury…
Slack did his most damage in the second and third quarters, combining for 21 over those two periods, but the Spartans had two other scorers in double-figures as Adam Williams poured in 18 points and Devin Walton added 10, evenly distributed between the two halves…
UB improved its unblemished record to 8-0 due in large part to a sterling shooting performance. The Bulls made seven of their 15 three-point attempts in the first 20 minutes, with guard Jayvon Graves making all four of his tries from beyond the arc…
Bonaventure’s blowout matched its 42-point victory over Siena on Dec. 3, 1956, the only previous time in the 32-game series that a team had won by more than 29. It was SBU’s largest win since a 48-point drubbing of Maryland-Eastern Shore last November…
