Scouting Richmond
Posted by TTHS on November 28th, 2007
This game is a must win. Tribe will lose to VCU, and going 1-5 can not happen. UR is 3-4 so far, the wins being over Maine, Rice, and ECU. They played Memphis pretty tough, but losses to Norfolk State and UMBC are ugly. The Tribe must, and I mean must, win this ball game.
6-9 foward Dan Geriot is the leading scorer on this team, sitting at 15.1 points per. He was on the A-10 all rookie team last season, and is putting up another solid year so far as he is also leading the team in rebounds. He is solid from the stripe for a big man, at 76%.
David Gonzalvez(not a typo) is second on the team with 10.7 points per game. The sophomore guard is has the best shooting percentage on the team(both from the field and from 3), and can create his own shot. However, his assist/turnover ratio is terrible.
Senior Oumar Sylla is averaging 9.7 points per game. He is most famous for his legal troubles last year, when he alledgedly stole some electronics from fellow students. He is a senior foward from Africa, and a transfer from Valpo.
This is a team we need to beat. They have a negative assist/turnover ratio, are being outrebounded on the year, and don’t shoot all that well. If we have Alex Smith, Tribe wins by 10, if not it is a tossup. I’ll go somewhere in the middle.
Tribe: 55
WE R YOU R: 51
