12/21 Valpo vs. Southeastern

With his full compliment of players ready to go for the first time all year, Coach Drew was blessed to have the opportunity to have his team play a game like this.  In what amounted to be a game worthy of an early November exhibition, Drew and the Crusaders rolled to a 43 point victory in UCF’s holiday tournament in Orlando, Fl.

Star freshman Alec Peters was the team leader in PPS, using a 4-5 effort from 3 point range and only playing 16 minutes really helped boost his score tonight.  As a whole the team rolled to a very high overall PPS behind an incredible 15-24 night from behind the arc (62.5%).  It should be noted that they did miss 6 in a row from outside at one point in the second half. This team still commits too many turnovers and a lot of fouls, but besides Southeastern who apparently doesn’t guard anybody close enough to commit any fouls (10 on the night), what team doesn’t foul a lot in the NCAA anymore?  Tomorrow’s night game against tournament host UCF, a rematch from earlier in the year when Valpo won by 15 at home, should be a good one and can be seen on ESPN3.
