They didn't really light up the box score and won't see many appearances on any highlight reels for today's game, but I was impressed with Whaley and Gaffney. Okay, Whaley's 2nd shot was ugly, but other than that, he played an excellent game. Tough D, solid rebounding, shot blocking, quick hands, and forcing turnovers. On offense, he set some solid screens and also was the first guy all season to successfully throw the alley oop lob to Akok for a dunk. We're now 1/10.

Gaffney managed to rack up 7 assists in very efficient fashion. I've heard people refer to him as a combo guard, but to me he seems like a pure point. Good playmaker, makes smart decisions, and doesn't try to do too much. After early jitters, he's showing great poise for a freshman.

Vital, Carlton, and Akok (and to a lesser extent Adams) were obviously the stars of this one, but these two guys deserve some recognition as well. Nice to see Jelly get off the bench too.
