This will be a game of tempo and who can control the tempo. Charleston wants to get the score into the high 70's or 80's and UNCW wants to keep the score in the 60's or 70's. Having watched them play several times(and the stats bear this out) CofC relies on offensive rebounding, drives to the basket to draw fouls or kick out to a team loaded with three point shooters. They have attempted 503 three pointers in 17 games (29.6 per game), the next closest is A&T with 411 attempts. They also have the most overall FG attempts with 1070(63 per game) while UNCW has 940 attempts(55 per game).
Charleston takes 47% of their shots from three. They get a lot of their three point attempts off the drive of Larson and Scott who will drive and kick out to set shooters. They don't have any standout rebounders, instead they all hit the offensive boards. Their nine primary players have at least 16 offensive rebounds with five over 20. UNCW rebounds well, but only four players have more than 16 offensive rebounds with three over 20. A key to this game will be keeping Charleston from getting offensive rebounds which drive their entire offense.
Trask is going to be packed with one of the most anticipated games in decades. A big rivalry already, this one has the two longest winning streaks in the nation on the line and a chance for UNCW to take down a CofC team with only one loss and a #23 ranking. Charleston has enjoyed a home heavy schedule where they thrive off the energy and can push the tempo. Siddle will have to keep his guys in check so they play at a tempo that is to our liking. I think he can do that and the energy of Trask will help UNCW impose their will on defense and pump up the offense. This feels like an opportunity for a game changer for the season, for Siddle and for our program. Would easily be the biggest win for UNCW since the Brownell years. I think we step up and make it happen

IMO this is the biggest home game at Trask since 1987.

I interpreted it as hosting a ranked CAA team. That is uncharted waters.

Hoping it's accurate, but per the ticket site on UNCWSports.com, Trask is already sold out for Wednesday night. Should be a fun night.

Any Charleston fans willing to give an estimate of how many they expect to come up for the game?

Since the teams that were beaten are pretty equal, i'd give the nod to UNCW winning in a neutral ballroom turned gym vs. a home tournament for CofC in front of a packed house.

This was well done. We need more of this from wherever we can get it. Maybe winning will breed more innovation.

I have three and I'd probably sell them for $150 each...lol. I'm excited about the game; where is the best place to park? My nephew is just off campus and I'm thinking of parking there and making the walk (basically from Kenan) just to avoid parking and traffic.
