ISU did that. Zek Montgomery got hot in the second half and Almar Atlason made a big three. Ahmet Jonovic did a fantastic job on Walker.

Walker and Kinziger are really good players - they need one more like them to take the next step.


ISU got lucky that the best 3pt shooting team made only 4. We will get blown out in Normal next month

Illinois State shoots 40% on the season from beyond the arc. Today 10-34
Chase Walker shoots 78% from the free throw line for the season. Today 1-6
So maybe Bradley got lucky the Redbirds had a bad shooting day and Chase Walker had his worse day of the season at the free throw line.

Aces without one of their best players, who is done for the season, have their best shooting night of the year. turn it over 21X, and still get the win on the road at Valpo.

Size matters, I reckon.


Aces made 62.5% of their 3s on the road today (10-16) and led by as many as 22 in the second half. No moral victories to be had after this one.

It’s really weird too, bc I was reliably told that teams were scared to play in the ARC….
