Liberty (0-2) at Colgate (0-1)
Settle in for along season as we lose our first two games, both at home, and both to historically horrible teams. Moses led the team with 19 points. Needham had 10 boards. Johnnie Moore added a dozen. I think my best move would be to try and get Devon Price out of the lineup and Pierre Jones into it, even if some guys have to play out of position.

Sacred Heart (2-0) at Colgate (0-2)
We put Pierre Jones into the starting SF spot. He is grossly out of position, but we go three big now and can’t fair any worse than with Devon starting. He moves down to 2nd man off the bench.
The moves do not pay off and we drop 3 straight, this one, 74-67. Needham was our only starter not scoring in double figures. Moore led the team with 17. Moses had 10 and 10.

November Recap
SG Michael Brown, from Buffalo, NY has committed to Colgate. Mike is a 3 star prospect. He is already a very good shooter and his potential there is just through the roof. I think this guy could be a diamond in the rough, especially if I could stick a red shirt on him his first year.

A horrible start to the season, after finishing second in the conference last year. There is a lot of ball left to be played though.
