It's 30-22 at intermission, and the Hawks look pretty well in control of things.
St. Joe's shot 13-for-27 from the field (48.1%), including 3-for-9 from three-point range (33.3%) and 10-for-18 from two-point range (55.6%), and 1-for-2 from the free throw line (50.0%). Four offensive rebounds, 12 defensive rebounds, eight assists, seven turnovers, one block, two steals and five fouls committed.
That adds up to 31 possessions and 0.972 points per possession.
Rob Ferguson leads all scorers with 10 points on 4-for-4 shooting, including 2-for-2 from three-point range.
Richmond plays a Princeton-style offense, which is no surprise given coach Chris Mooney's roots in Old Nassau (he's an Archbishop Ryan grad too). And the Spiders put forth a half worthy of comparison to the Tigers these days.
They made only nine of 22 field goal attempts (which is still somehow 40.9%), including 3-for-9 from three-point range (33.3%) and 6-for-13 from two-point range, and 1-for-2 from the free throw line (50.0%). One offensive rebound (also very Princetonian), 11 defensive rebounds, eight assists, 10 turnovers, three blocks, two teals and five fouls committed.
That adds up to 32 possession and a mere 0.690 points per possession.
