The Michigan Wolverines came into the 2023-24 season on a mission to right last season’s wrongs, primarily with an emphasis on late-game situations.
Michigan went 4-13 last season in games decided within six points. According to interim head coach Phil Martelli, “If we were 13-4, there would be a banner hanging up in there for (making) another NCAA Tournament appearance.”
Because of the team’s performance in these scenarios last season, the Wolverines worked tirelessly this offseason to be on the winning end of close games.
Nine games into the season, and Michigan has not improved in that category.
