WEEK 1: Other Big East Games 2019-2020

[sirthought]

Second day of action sees all Big East teams winning their games. The conference is 11-0, but not everything is rainbows and sunshine.

- Butler's McDermott scores 26, 6 rebounds. Their team was already down five men due to illness or injury, when more injuries struck when Karmar Baldwin only plays 5 minutes, left with a rib cage injury, and then Campbell Donovan leaves the game with a knee injury. They are gonna have an interesting non-con.

- Saint John's shows their offense is working with 109 points, but is their defense? Mercer scores 79 on them. Red Storm had 31 FT attempts, which shows they are focusing on inside play. Their starters are fairly young.

- DePaul's Charlie Moore takes charge leading all scorers with 17 pt, 6 asts. and 7-7 FT. No U of Chicago Maroon scores in double figures! (Surprised this studious school is even D1.) Freshman Romeo Weems started for DePaul and finishes with 11 pts, 5 reb. Freshman Markese Jacobs comes off the bench for 26 minutes and finishes with 16 pts. Could be a new wave in Chi Town.

- Georgetown comes back from being down 19 pts to beat Mount St Mary's, who seemed to find the basket fairly easily in the first half. The big guy Yurtseven is going to be load to handle. 20 pts. 12 rebounds, 7-7 FT. Hoya's made their FT, 17-21.
