The first half of the conference season has ended as of last night. The Polar Bears posted a 5 and 4 record for the first half. I believe, for a young basketball team in an extremely difficult conference, this is quite an accomplishment. While I was disappointed last night with a loss to a very good Muskingum team on the road, I think our team has made great progress since the beginning of the season. We have improved our defense and rebounding significantly and I believe our team has embraced the idea of what "team" really means. We have stuck together and been tough in each of our conference games. The OAC is as strong as ever with many teams still having a chance to be the regular season champion. For us to be successful in the second round we must continue to stick together, rebound the ball and play stingy defense. On the offensive side of the ball we have to take better care of the ball and do a better job of executing our offense. I am confident this group will continue to work hard and improve. I believe if we follow our "Do Work" motto we can finish in the upper half of the OAC and have at least one home game for the conference tournament. When tournament time comes around anything can happen. :) Go Bears!
