For anyone wondering how good they might be and whether or not they might give us a game tomorrow, in the preseason PSAC West poll Clarion came in 7th in the East and Edinboro came in 8th.

For those who don't know, that's 7th and 8th out of 9.

Its not that any of this matters, but, IUP won their league last year. They are the preseason basketball favorite in their league this year. IUP beat Clarion by 24 points in game 1 and 16 points in game 2 last year. Pitt beat Clarion by 52 points without our best player playing this year.

IUP beat Edinboro by 9 points in game 1 last year and 12 points in game 2 last year. I expect Pitt to beat them far worse with or without Hugley and Jeffress.

Again, its not that the results above really mean anything. But Im going to maintain that I feel our team is underrated by a good margin assuming everyone is healthy. Pitt should win easily today, far easier than what IUP did against them.
 
UPJ was picked 4th in the PSAC West, so, like way better
I watch IUP games from time to time just based off where I live. The difference between someone like UPJ vs. Clarion or Edinboro is quite large. My main point was I don't know why we aren't scrimmaging them and tossing them a few dollars versus Clarion.

We scrimmaged UPJ a few years ago. Gannon last year, Slippery Rock in 2019, and UPJ in 2018.

Up 28-16 with 8 min left in half. Shooting better now. Like against Clarion, Federiko look like a better center option than G. Diaz-Graham.
 
Hinson carrying the team with 28 of Pitt's 53 points at halftime (made 5 of 8 3s).

Much better with Federiko in the post rebounding defensively and blocking a few shots.

Pitt up 53-30 at the half.

First half numbers of importance


Pitt leads by 23 points at halftime

Hinson has 28 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 assist at halftime.

Pitt's FG defense held Edinboro to 37% shooting, and this needs to be better

Edinboro has outrebounded Pitt by 1

5 different Pitt players have made a 3

Pitt has 16 points off turnovers and is +7 in turnover margin

Fedirko has 4 points and 7 rebounds at halftime, and is playing above expectations for the 2nd game in a row.

Cummings has 5 assist and 0 turnovers, great turnaround from last games turnover problems from him.


Respectable, not great, but respectable performance without Hugley and Jeffress. Pitt needs to tighten up the defense in the 2nd half and extend the lead. 2 games into the preseason, 2 games of good looking 3 point shooting.

Nelly hurt? Live stats shows 0 2nd half minutes.
 
Clarion had one and a half good players. #3 was good and #14 was decent. The rest were garbage.

You mean Edinboro. Yeah, 3 and 14 were their only two decent players. You can see why both Edinboro and Clarion were picked to finish at the bottom of their conference.

Since Edinboro and Clarion are the same college, can they combine their teams? Maybe if they did, they can win the PSAC?
