This ain’t East Carolina, fellas. The athletes these last two games - impressive. We’ve got a ways to go - keep building.

After the loss to Duke, Andy Enfield lamented the fact that the Mustangs picked the wrong day to play a bad game, including the fact that the Ponies, who have shot well this year, made just 34% of their field goals.

So far tonight: 26.9% (7/26 from the floor)
