 Welcome to the Gary Stewart show. I'm Joe Wamba joined now with Gary Stewart head coach of the men's basketball team and coach You guys host a conference opponent and like coming this weekend have a pretty solid performance again Then another tight game and some catalysts on the team is Tim Tim McNeil and Cameron Hayes Well, you absolutely right Joe another tight ball game. We we were tied under three minutes left in that one and and that's kind of been our story, you know We've been within one possession of a number of opponents with less than four minutes left Struggling to close games out, but Tim and Cam were were excellent had great energy And we're sort of put the ball on the floor and got to the rim Also, we're able to stretch the defense and hit some threes both those guys are progressing nicely and Cliff Cornish Also progressing nicely having another big game underneath the basket for you We did a good job of getting Cliff the ball in the areas where he's successful And he's a guy obviously that can step out and and make jump shots But we want to anchor him down on the interior for most of his opportunities and our execution was better And when when we involve him consistently along with Mark and Benjamin were difficult to guard You absolutely were with those three big tall guys being able to circle through When either one of them gets into foul trouble or it just doesn't have it tonight They're all stepping up for each other. Yeah, and we need those guys to be productive for us. They're all multi-skilled All bring a unique skill set and one that we have to cinch away to To be successful moving forward and you'll need to lean on that skill set a little bit You guys travel up to New Pulse for a Tuesday evening game this week. Let's talk about a little bit of that match up Well, they're gonna be difficult they Stretch your defense. They have a multitude of players that can make Shots from the perimeter. So we're gonna have to get out there and contest shots and limit their opportunities They run an offense that Allows back cuts as well. So we're gonna have to play them in two directions You know, we can't allow them to shoot layups on the interior in a five-on-five setting But we also have to get out to their shooters and identify who they are and make it hard for Well, coach, we wish you the best of luck and hitting those points of interest for you this this Tuesday. Thank you, Joe He's Gary Stewart. I'm Joe Wamba and this has been the Gary Stewart show
