So far, so good. I'm following the score on the internet. I'd be interested in anyone commenting on how they look.

20-32 (62%) from the line.

considering how much this young team is going to struggle this year, free throw shooting is something they're going to have to improve if they're going to have a chance to beat anybody.

Lots of hustle and energy ....... they got down I think 8-2 and I thought "oh Lordy" but they pulled it together. I am pleasantly suprised at their play ..... if they coulda done a better job at the charity stripe they would have really waxed this team.

It will be interesting to see how this season unfolds.

i'm still thinking 10-12 wins would be a success, but at least we know that these kids will fight in every game.

Yep, I turned it on right at the 8-2 score and was right there with you in terms of concern. That said, I was pleased with the effort. They need to work on the FTs and rebounding - those are the two most glaring areas that need help IMHO
