    This was a hard fought win for the Aggies and they really needed a win since 8 of their last 16 games have been cancelled. It's hard to be in great form and peaking when you can't play games without long layoffs every other week. Manjon said that the team couldn't even practice in the gym at times and had to practice outdoors.

    There were 48 fouls called: 22 on the Ags and 26 on the Runners with the Ags going 29 of 35 from the line and Bake going 20 of 23. I thought the officiating was very uneven. They let the game get very physical in the first half and then started calling touch fouls in the second so it was a ragged game without either team really being able to get into an offensive rhythm.

    I like the way the Ags hung tight though and I thought they played pretty good defense and some stops when they really counted. Fuller took a violent hit to the mouth and had to leave the game. I hope he'll be good to go next week. He's made a lot of progress this year. Good to see Borra and Murphy getting playing time when Anigwe got in early foul trouble.

    I like the heart that this team has. Hopefully, they will get to actually play their final 4 games!

    Shawn Smith is a beast. 20 points already. We’re having trouble with his physical play. The officials are really letting him bang like a bull inside and he’s drawing a lot of fouls. Hard to defend him when they are letting him be so physical.

    Ags lose 84-75. Hall had 29 points and 13 rebounds and Turner dropped in 18.

    This team is hard to figure. Just when it looked like they were finding their stride and after blowing out Poly by 30 points on Thursday, they turn around and get solidly beaten by the worst team in the conference and gave up 84 points in doing so. They got a total of 2 points from the bench for the entire game also.

    The game was suspended in the 9th due to darkness with the Ags trailing 4-2. The game will be completed starting at 1 pm Saturday with the regularly scheduled game to follow 30 minutes afterwards.

    Sage had 4 more blocks...she's a blocking machine. 19 TO's are the poor stat from this game but, when you shoot 57% overall and 48% from downtown, it doesn't really matter. It's not a good trend though...

    Great ball movement, 64% shooting and the whole bench is getting a lot of playing time.

    7 is the minimum numbers of players.

    The Ags are a tight knit group and I just hope they value their relationships with their teammates and coaches plus their education more than the bright lights of what think could be a bigger stage.

    I'm pretty sure you are right about the cancellations, Mike. The last 3 are due to Covid protocol with the Aggies and the others were other teams cancelling because of Covid. So Covid and bad luck are doing us in as far as getting to play.

    Ugh...if feels like this season is being systematically eliminated game by game...
  • WBB: UC Irvine (14-8, 9-2) at UCD (10-9, 4-5) 2 pm Saturday 2/12
    The Ags race out to a 35-18 lead at the half despite 10 TO's. Defense has held UCI to 27% and 0-13 from 3. Konrad and Hall have 10 apiece.
  • WBB: UCSD (9-10, 6-4) at UCD (9-9, 3-5) 6 pm Thursday 2/10
    It wasn't pretty but it goes in the win column and this team really needed this win. Stobbart had only 3 points but had 5 blocks and Evan Turner went scoreless which is highly unusual.

    Aggie football has becoming a factory for future coaching careers!
  • MBB Games at UCSD and UCI Cancelled
    It really does feel like a lost season. We have season tickets and have only attended 5 games so far due to cancellations, no fan games and our own covid caution. So much for being season ticket holders this year. Two lost seasons in a row now...
  • MBB Games at UCSD and UCI Cancelled
    I'm not sure what can be counted towards the 25 but the person who posted on the BW Boards said we could not qualify now.
  • MBB Games at UCSD and UCI Cancelled
    UCI released a statement saying the cancellations are due to covid protocols within the Aggie program and, someone over on the Big West Boards Forum posted that the Ags will not meet the 25 game minimum to qualify for the NCAA Tournament or the NIT now.

    Nice photos, Adam! They really capture the athleticism and physicality of the game. I had to laugh at a couple of them: in #4 the Hawaii player looks like he just saw a ghost! and int #10, Murphy has a solid hook on Colina.

    Thanks for posting your photos.

    Milling took a wicked hit to the face also. It looked like they were going to review it but then they didn't. It's maddening when an officiating crew allows a ton of contact near the basket but calls touch fouls around the perimeter.
