“Honestly, understanding how hard he has worked to get to where is after not playing for almost three years … it’s beautiful to see him on the court,” Edosomwan said.
STRUGGLES AT THE LINE
Looking at the box score after the game, both Amaker and Edosomwan fixated on one number—free throw shooting. While the junior was more shocked to hear the team had shot just eight times from the line, converting three, both were equally direct.
“We are not getting there and when we get there, we are not converting,” the coach said.
“I don’t know what to say … Usually we try to pride ourselves on getting to the line,” his player said.
On the season, the Crimson have shot just over 50 percent from the charity stripe as a team. Miller, the team’s second best free throw shooter from last year, has yet to get to the line this season. While the three freshmen in the rotation—Tommy McCarthy, Edosomwan, and Perez—have shot 82 percent, the remainder of the team has made just 46 percent of its attempts.Advertisement
