Game Preview - December 19 vs. Oakland

On Tuesday night, the 20th ranked Marquette Warriors will play host to the Oakland Golden Grizzlies. The Warriors are coming off of an 18 point victory on Saturday against UMBC.

Freshman Lazar Hayward had his coming out party on Saturday, picking up 13 points, most of them coming down low. Dominic James led the way with 17 and had several impressive dunks on the fast break. The Warriors would like to control this game from start to finish just like they did the last, something they have not been able to do for much of the season.

This will be the sixth game of an eight game homestand for the Warriors, and it will be the first with the students on Christmas break. Finals ended Friday, but a decent number of students stayed around for Saturday's game. Starting tonight, there will be very few students in the crowd for the next three home games. They should return in force for the first home conference game of the season against Syracuse.

Prediction: 83-64 Marquette

    I love the blog that you have. I was wondering if you would link my blog to yours and in return I would do the same for your blog. If you want to, my site name is American Legends and the URL is:

    www.americanlegends.blogspot.com

    If you want to do this just go to my blog and in one of the comments just write your blog name and the URL and I will add it to my site.

    Thanks,
    David
