99 pts today Would never bet the Vegas “under” line against this team … after the first quarter my wife thought it was the half … non-stop movement on the court - both offense and defense |

Saw the game as well. They score a lot of points but they also gave up a lot of easy points. They have to work on the defense more. Some of the new players look real good

Starters went 27 for 40 - 68% … moved ball better resulting in better shot selection… expect they will finish higher than pre-season predictions

In addition to most of the Siena Men’s basketball team & coaches attending yesterday’s Women’s game I also spotted Connor Fenlon and Kadeem Smithen there.

www.timesunion.com/sports/article/Siena-women-s-basketball-preview-16582323.phpThis Siena team is fun to watch. Think if Paul Hewitt’s teams (in a way). We have two speedster PGs in Harris & Talbot. Brown (Rayshel) can even bring up the ball if needed. Peterson was a good 3 pt shooter last year and seems even better this year. Jackson, Anthony & Brown can really score the ball. If Valencia (Fontelle-Posson) is as good as she looked yesterday, then she could become a fan favorite for years to come. I’m biased on her because she’s from Guilderland. 🙂 I felt bad for La-La Watts because she got herself into foul trouble early and didn’t play much but she’s tough and can defend, rebound and play inside. When the 1st quarter it felt like halftime (# of possessions compare to last year). Sel iMovie showed flashes of good things but then also made some freshman mistakes. I think she’ll be good in the long run; just needs more experience playing D1. Same goes for Knoflach, I think she needs that experience of playing US ball and she’ll be serviceable. Similar to the men, Siena had at least four Saints in sweats unavailable for the game (Philoxy, Winston, Rose?, and Brown (Anajah); plus for some reason Blasetti & Gonzalez didn’t play either but both were in uniform. I really wanted to see what Selena Philoxy, the Seton Hall grad could do. Like the men’s team, the women’s team has depth. It’s going to be a fun watching basketball season.

I agree with your synopsis and they’re going to be a fun team to watch. I really like the young lady from Guilderland she is going to be a player we’re going to remember for a long time
