NU-Michigan First Half Thread

[Straus2018]

The Cats look to rebound from a blowout loss at Illinois against Michigan in their final home game of the season. The seniors are being honored in a ceremony before the tip

Cobb and Sobolewski join Olah, Demps and Lumpkin in starting lineup tonight.

Looks like Cats really trying to attack with Olah tonight. He puts team up 7-5 with a great reverse move

 

[wlcat]

13:54 Kreisberg in for Olah, all 3 seniors now have played

 

[Straus2018]

Law gets all ball on a blocked three-point attempt by Zak Irvin, called for the foul anyway

 

[Straus2018]

Michigan currently on a 9-0 run, up 14-9

 

[Straus2018]

Of all people, JerShon Cobb ends the run with a corner three

Dawkins, a freshman, has burned the Cats for 12 points as Wolverines hold 22-15 lead at 7:42

 

[Straus2018]

Cats at 37.5%, Michigan at 66.7% field goal shooting with six and a half to go

 

[Straus2018]

Cats haven't tried to get Olah involved at all over the past ten minutes. Unsurprisingly the Cat have not attempted a free throw

 

[Straus2018]

And just like that the Cats make me bite my tongue- an and-one putback by Law then an Olah layup get the crowd going

Olah down with left knee injury at 218

 

[wlcat]

Skelly replaces Olah, who appears fine

 

[Straus2018]

Again an NU opponent is off to a hot start from the outside

 

[wlcat]

Dawkins, averaging 5.2 ppg, burns Cats for 15 in first half

Michigan hits 9-10 free throws to 1-1 for NU
