Coach Robinson Isn't Afraid To Try Anything

After last night's win over Houston I noticed something that I've noticed before and has become something I really like about Coach Robinson. He isn't afraid to change things in game to shake things up and maybe strike lightning and get a win.

His strategy at the start of the game was clearly to go small. Three guards started with Ruland and Seth Tarver. Thats a small lineup. It worked defending the fastbreak, but we couldn't score. So we went bigger in the second half. For much of the second Omari, Ruland, Deane, and sometimes Hampton we in together. And that really worked. Sure, he couldn't predict Omari would hit 2 big threes, but all those big men caused problems for the smaller Houston players trying to score.

He went through multiple defenses, lineup combos, and offensive sets until something clicked, we went on a run, and won the game. Great job to Omari and Daniel to pull us to a victory!

Vermont on Monday! Let's get a bigger crowd this time people!


Go Beavs!
