European trip gives Marquette freshmen a head start

[Irishdawg]

The court today had a ton of moisture on it because it was so warm in the gym, which caused a lot of turnovers and spills, especially when Marquette was on offense. I don't know how much can be gathered from one game, especially when footing came at a premium, but if this team sticks together for a couple of years, they are going to be something special.

Wilson showed he can still catch fire, but can he be more consistent with his shooting and scoring this year?
Fischer looked a lot better without the shoulder brace.
Ellenson is going to be really hard for "4" men to guard, especially when he gets in the open floor. Skilled.
Cohen will definitely contribute, but still looks kind of skinny.
As you said, Traci Carter will do a good job of running this team. Continuing to play within his role will be a key in Marquette's success.

Per @MarquetteMBB

Duane 28 pts, 3 stls
Henry 24 points, 10 rebounds
Luke 10 pts, 10 rebounds
Sandy 10 2nd half pts

Traci Carter looked decent as well. Not scoring wise but decent enough to run a good ball team as opposed to how Derrick was.

Anyone should be better than Derrick at the pg position.

Hoyas win against Hakur 74-64. Wish we got full video of the games like Marquette did. We just got video clips on periscope about 13 minutes worth.

The Warrior/GEs were to play on the 15th & 16th? Any updates, box scores, or video?

The front court tandem of Fischer / Ellenson are showing strong in Italy.

Marquette beat Sam Basket Massagno (Swiss team) 132 to 75 to close out their trip. The opposing team looked to be pretty skilled, well coached but simply wore down/got sloppier as the game went on. Probably hadn't practiced much, and definitely weren't in game shape.

Great experience for the team overall. They got news today that Freshman guard Haanif Cheatham was cleared during the last game. Poor timing, but good news nonetheless.

Luke fisher looks like a man playing with children and not in the catholic priest way us catholic school kids have grown accustomed to. If he looks like this during the season Marquette will have the best front court in the conference and one of the better in the country... That being said college ball is a guards game.
