Highlight Reel: Bluejays Lose Second Straight on Road, 71-66 at UNI

“The Bluejays, having weathered a mid-half run by the Panthers, started the second half as quickly as they had the first. The Jays used two baskets each from Echenique and McDermott to turn a 31-26 halftime score into a 35-33 lead in their favor. Except this time, instead of cooling off a few minutes later, the Bluejays continued to hit shots at an impressive clip. During the second half, CU shot 70% from the field and made 3 of their 5 3-point attempts.

Problem was, they couldn’t get enough shots off. After committing 9 turnovers in the first half, the Jays repeated that number in the second stanza, continuing to give away possessions. Meanwhile, the Panthers started hitting shots again, led by Ahelegbe. But more important to the overall flow and function of the game, UNI committed just 2 turnovers in the second half (7 total on the night).” -Ott’s Thoughts
