The first half was the most futile half of basketball on the collegiate level I’ve seen in a years. Pardon the cliché, but the Bonnies are shooting themselves in the foot with 11 turnovers. They are giving this inexperienced LMU club a reason to believe it can win its first game of the year. The only reason the Bonnies are winning is because they are playing LMU. If this was any team in the A-10, they would be down by at least 20, and easily could be more. The two teams have combined for 24 turnovers and, quite frankly, the quality of basketball is laughable. Schmidt doesn’t need to make any adjustments at halftime – the players need to simply execute better.
Fereti leads the Bonnies with 12 points and Lee has added nine points and five rebounds. Relph has come off the bench and done a good job running the point with a broken bone in his foot. The Bonnies have received the contributions they need from their veterans, they just need to cut down on the turnovers. They also need to continue to push the ball, as they are quicker, bigger, more skilled and simply more athletic than the Lions. The team that cuts down its turnovers first is the team that will win this game.
