Halftime! Slippery Rock: Bonnies:

At the half, the Bonnies are tied 33-33 with The Rock. The offense is beginning to resemble that of a Division I program. The defense has faired pretty well with the exception of its 10 fouls. The reason Slippery Rock has put up 33 points is because of just that; too many fouls. The Rock have scored almost half its points off of free throws. Back to the offense, where Zarryon Fereti has come alive with two 3s. Michael Lee has scored eight points and been more aggressive than he ever was last season, pulling down three boards in the first half. Freshman Hillary Haley has been a pleasant surprise, hitting 3-6 from the field for six points. He has also pulled down two rebounds. Junior D'Lancy Carter has dominated the boards with four in the first half. The Bonnies have been very good on the boards with 20 for the half, 11 on defense and 9 on offense. Unfortunately, they are shooting 14-35 from the field for a perecentage of 40. This has led Slipper Rock to 15 defensive boards. The second half should be interesting to see what adjustments new coach Mark Schmidt makes and whether this team can pull away from a Division II school.
