So no matter what happens today I think pony fans should take a moment to recognize that emelogu and Ben moore have had nice tournaments. Glad to see it as each had pretty rough seasons. Each could still do more but they have done their jobs well when called upon. I also have faith that they both have the talent to be huge positives for our team in the tournament and next year.

Ben Moore has done a good job rebounding and defending and scoring a bit, with some foul calls and a little better touch he could have scored 20 against temple.

Emelogu has defended well and not turned the ball over. I would just love him to be more aggressive on the offensive end. I don't want him shooting more I want him driving when he has the space to get up to speed. He is a big physical guard and when he gets into the paint amazing things can happen for us offensively.

Both Bens are seriously talented players. Plus they are great people from what I hear.

They help the team in many ways and if they keep playing hard their success will grow.

Next year they will be one of the mainstays on a very good team.

Ben Moore missed at least 4 easy buckets down low. Not sure he can add any weight, but 10 lbs would be nice to get "out of traffic" down low. Still like his game and LB clearly has given him the green light for that 8-10 ft shot on the baseline.

Ben E's three yesterdsy was a a critical moment. It was huge. So happy he drilled it. He is contributing.
Ben M got absolutely hammered underneath yesterday. He could definitely use some extra pounds because we'll need him inside. If we had more bigs I could see the point- forward experiment going ahead more next year. But we are set at the point.

Give big Ben credit for yesterday. He played his butt off. Just didn't have enough finish on those bunnies.
