Purloined means stolen.
Had Nicholson been allowed to play longer, NU wins this game. The way we were shooting, we maybe win by 6-10. But the refs did what they love to do and intervened.
The referees called an obvious offensive foul on Gillis for physically plowing Ty Berry down the lane, but Edey does that repeatedly and the zebras allow it - or call fouls on the defender.
There is a different set of rules for Edey.
Meanwhile, Nicholson picked up a foul for standing next to Edey with his hand on Edeys hip. He got another foul for standing still and another foul for jumping.
Oh well, can't do anything about it. Its just tough to watch when the refs are putting your team at a disadvantage,
The starters (Nicholson/Barnhizer/Buie/Berry/Langborg) hammered the Boilers 18-9 in 7 minutes of play. Scored easily, didn't allow much.
No reason to think that wouldn't happen again.
With Hunger at center with the same 4 starters, we played to an 18-18 draw over 8 1/2 minutes.
However, when Preston was at center with the same 4, we lost 22-14 in 6 1/2 minutes.
Ty Berry poured in 25 points on only 14 shots. A couple were a bit forced, but he played a great game. Buie was only slightly less effective.
Jordan Clayton played 1 minute and we were beaten 5-0. With all the fouls being called on NU, Collins was forced to sub constantly.
33 or so substitutions for this game, when our normal is 18-25. Eventually he had no one to sub.
The "golden lineup" (Nicholson/Martinelli/Barnhizer/Berry/Buie) only saw two minutes of action early in the game. They lost 4-3.
Oh, I declared "garbage time" with 2 seconds left to play, just as Chris Collins went onto the court to discuss matters with a referee who witnessed and ignored a crucial offensive foul.
So those 4 free throws are not counted.
