Troy postgame

All of a sudden this is a hot basketball team. Four wins in the last five games, and the loss was in overtime. Who would have thought that two weeks ago?

When you have a couple of 6-5 guys who can put up numbers like Roger Woods and Maurius Hill have been lately, it makes you forget a little bit about the lack of height on this team. One point short of two double/doubles. Woods threw in six offensive boards. However, the game ball to Josh Hagins with 17 points, 2 rebounds, 3 steals, 3 assists and zero turnovers. And how about Ben Dillard's 11 of 11 from the FT line? Nice team victory, and all ten players got into the act. We were plus 6 on the boards.

One stat I love to see is that we held the trey-happy Troy team to 24% from the arc. It brings back memories of the old Trojan Tough defense.
