Big ups to the Guru for dropping the word "proscenium" on us on the Hoopsville postgame show.

I was wondering if anyone else noticed that. I had to look it up.

Johnson for Benedictine is a monster offensive player but his defense was a big liability. Saarela had his way inside and Montero was able to take advantage of help defense that arrived late all game

I was exchanging texts with some fellow MIAC fans during the game and we commented on the same thing. 

Great team run, and season by Benedictine.

Johnson is an incredible help defender; he's a skilled shot blocker, but he struggled when posted up.  He's got good footwork, so you'd think he'd be able to improve there - then again, I would've thought he'd've put on another 25 pounds of muscle by this point, too.

If he could have generated the interest, he should have transferred to Michigan like Duncan Robinson.  The UM strength coach has done wonders for him! ;D

Dave 'd-mac' McHugh
