USC has athleticism and tough shotmakers. They don’t have a point guard, and I think that will come back to bite them later in the year when they face better defenses who can limit one-on-one creation, but it’s not going to keep them from winning tonight.
Feel like it’s just too easy for USC athletically on the offensive side of the ball. But Cal is fighting.

Emely Rodriguez gave Syracuse a spark after returning to the game with two fouls in the second quarter. She's second on the team in points, rebounds, and assists through three games. syracuse.com/orangewomen/202…

End 1Q: Syracuse 19, Siena 17 Not a pretty quarter for the Orange. Gave up some shots on overhelp, a few bad turnovers as well. Saints drained three 3s. Celaine Ricco scored the last five points of the quarter to put SU back ahead.

And yes. This is gray against white. Certainly won't lead to any issues

Great work from Riley on one of the most electric scorers in college basketball
Carson Johnson would have had high-major offers if he entered the portal this past offseason. Instead, the Summit League’s POY is back at Denver under Tim Bergstraser. Even with Johnson’s return, new challenges lie ahead for the Pioneers. @mid_madness midmajormadness.com/west-coa…

Tonight, Saint Peter’s takes on South Carolina. It’s believed to be the first time that the Peacocks have flown for a non-conference game since Clemson on 12/4/18 (Sha’s first year) SPU DID however fly to Buffalo in 2023-24 for the Niagara/Canisius weekend in MAAC play. Which if I recall without looking it up, was opening weekend of MAAC play and they went 2-0.
South Carolina has formalized its 2026-27 Non-Conference Schedule. Notable: Saint Peter's appears to be taking its first airplane flight of the Bashir Mason era (Year 5), unless they opt for an 11-hour bus ride. Don't rule it out. The Peacocks are proud of the streak. #SEC

Novak Manojlovic did not play in Manhattan’s win over Maine. We will get more details on Saturday when the Jaspers face Le Moyne
Manhattan head coach John Gallagher on Bosnian big man Novak Manojlovic “Everyone in Europe said he’s a professional rebounder. His body is, I wouldn’t say, college-ready; it’s pro-ready." midmajormadness.com/metro-at…
