“We’ve been practicing for so many months now—when you get out there, it’s kind of muscle memory,” Luke Hunger said. “But, of course, when the lights are on, it’s different.”
Heights Sports retweeted
BC finished 23-24 from the line tonight.
"We shoot a lot of free throws,” Colby Duggan said. “The night before the game, we all have to shoot 100 free throws, and you have to make at least 75.”
Heights Sports retweeted
The Eagles missed 31 shots and collected 19 o-boards in tonight's win.
Here's what Hunger said about rebounding:
“It was a better job today, but, you know, we gotta play against some bigger dogs, so just gotta be ready for that."

Duggan just sank his third 3-pointer of the game to put BC up 51-33 a few minutes into the second half.
He's 3-4 from deep.

HALF: BC leads the Hawks 43-25.
Williams drew a foul with .3 left in the first half and sank both FTs. He has 7.
The end of the half was not particularly flawless basketball, but BC outrebounded the Hawks 24-9 and went 12-12 from the line to secure an 18-point lead.

O’Brien:
“We just didn't make enough plays. Give Florida State credit; they made more plays than we did. They, you know, they did some good things. We did some good things, but not enough.”
Heights Sports retweeted
BC head coach Bill O’Brien not happy with the officiating in the post-game presser:
“How many holding calls on Florida State? One. I think we had five called on us … Hopefully, I don’t get fined.”

FINAL: BC 24 | 31 FSU
