Shot-Clock Awareness is point of emphasis #5 this season. Must know the magic number (between the game clock and the shot clock) on every possession.
Fink is confident facing Houston, the "hardest-playing-team" in the country, because that's what WE want to be! FIGHT ON!
Congratulations to our Guy @nlorensensports on his 1st win as Queens GM 103-98 over Winthrop. We will have Nick on later to discuss The Field of 68’s opening slate as we look forward to the Explorers tip tonight on @CBSSportsCBB
