[NU Sports] Closers

[Weinbaum, Willie]

Curletti also crashed the boards, made some heady passes and was aggressive on defense. Needed every bit of his effort and the rest to pull this off. Crawford hit several clutch and crucial shots...Sobolewski continues to be a steady point guard (and he'll have better shooting days)...Hearn made some nice plays with and without the ball and is a very hard-working player...

If Cobb regains his health, he could really help.

When you get 17 points from your center, it makes a big (pun intended) difference, doesn't it?

Cats' late first-half run carried into second half - - late in the first half, Marcotullio hit two big treys and Shurna closed the half with a long & rousing trey.  Curletti played a terrific half and Crawford battled through the flu to make a strong contribution.

Cats played most assertive 2d half they've had.  There were tense moments, to be sure, but NU never stopped pressing the action, instead of waiting for a miracle.

Perhaps most gratifying is that the kids didn't hang their heads after two crushers and after falling behind MSU in first half...

If ever a turnaround game was needed, this was it.
