As stated in my preview, Cook and forbes doing everything for them. We are struggling to defend them

U4 timeout we trail 32-25. Tulane disrupting anything we want to do by getting their hands in our hand offs. Making some curious decisions with the ball. Bell looking pretty good attacking the basket.

25 of their 32 are by Forbes and Cook. They are 5-7 from 3 so far

We cant buy a 3 pointer to fall

Jaylen Forbes is KILLING THEM.

Forbes 7-7 and 5-5 from 3. We are making him look like an NBA prospect. Lets hope halftime brings him back to reality. We are down 42-30 at half.

Tulane shot 53.6 overall and 63.6 from 3 that half. We had 7 turnovers to their 5. Rebounding is similar.
We shot 41.7 and 11.1 from 3

Forbes was 9-25 coming into today from 3. and 12-40 overall. He is 5-5 and 7-7. Unreal

We are getting to the basket now. Forced a turnover and a crazy good finish by Bell. Down 47-42 timeout Tulane.

U16 now in the 2nd half. Still 47-42 Tulane. We look better out of halftime.

Shots starting to fall. Bell playing very well. Down 55-53 with 13 left

Forbes finally misses on his 7th 3 attempt

Timeout Tulane, I think. 57-53 tulane with 12:15 remaining

Edit: We are delayed. Roof is leaking onto the court. Shades of Richmond haunt us again.

Delay due to a leak from the ceiling. This could be devastating for this tournament if they can't get it fixed. When it rains, it pours...

They're playing in a converted ballroom which is never on the upper floors. Wonder where the water is originating? Weather is cloudy with showers possible tonight, so not a downpour causing this delay.

It's a fitting expression, and in this case it's just another crazy cause for a delay or cancellation for Drexel Basketball. As if the opponent's bus breaking down last week wasn't enough. Maybe this will be Drexel's thing this year, to have numerous games delayed or postponed due to wacky circumstances.

Game scheduled to resume at 7:30....

Need some Flex Tape

Wynter is top 20 scorer at Drexel and Butler is tied for 6th all time rebounder (7 more to be 5th place).

Maybe this is par for the course for these holiday tourneys, but this isn't even close to a basketball arena. It's like a convention center or ballroom.

It IS a ballroom...
