6pm on Friday at the Kress
$2 Bud Light night
Likely the last home game unless road teams win the other games.
Does anyone know anything about CSUB?

Will be attending this one! I wonder if they are experimenting with the 6 o'clock start instead of the 7 o'clock start? The decision could of been made by the CIT as well.
Basketball, 2 dollar beers and a quarterfinal? YES PLEASE!

Its fun to be the last HL team standing.
I think we should roll the Roadrunners in this one. I couldn't make the game last night but it looked like a good atmosphere and I expect this one to be similar.

It looks like Bakersfield is a good rebounding team and comfortable playing a lower (not low) scoring game as they average about 70/game.
They started out well but faded hard down the stretch of the WAC. I'm not sure how or why that happened.
They posted a welcome to WI video from their bus on Twitter. They last played in Utah, if they drove any significant portion of this trip that is amazing. Also means GB might catch them worn down.
Another home team lost in the CIT last night. Do not let that happen at the Kress. Calling all fans, let's make this a home court advantage.

Both road teams won last night in Hampton and Texas Southern. A win tonight could mean another home game. Hopefully tonight can bring out 2000 plus fans and everyone takes advantage of Bud Night. Making money is going to be tough but a slight blow to the balance sheet may be worth the investment for the program with all the returning players. Great chance to make it a 20 win season and keep this run going!

I’ll be there!! Let’s play basketball in April! We'll have our group of 7+ season tickets holders there again plus some extras. Tuesday nights game started out slow with GB trying to make high light dunks that failed either because of the pass or hitting the rim. After they settled down and got serious it was lights out. Looking for and better start and the same finish tonight. I will say I was embarrassed by the size of the crowd Tuesday. I know students get in free, but they must have been on Spring Break. Hoping for a bigger student turn out tonight. There wasn't 50 students there Tuesday, hopefully they came back today.

But GB always answered.

Fun game. GB took their best punch a few times and was still standing.
I'm glad to see they out rebounded these guys.
GB didn't get many calls, the game is probably 20+ with real officials and not HL scraps blowing the whistles. It's like they went out of their way to not give Sandy a star treatment.
