Western Michigan struggled to begin the season, partly because of all the new faces, and partly because of the schedule. Their main challenge was scoring. After a West Coast road trip with a close lose to Washington, and another semi-close loss to UCLA, the Broncos are rounding into form.
Seattle native Tucker Haymond seemed to respond the best to the West Coast, scoring 28 against Washington and following that up with a 16 point performance against UCLA. The Broncos need this type of scoring going into MAC play.
Freshman Reggie Jones has also picked up some of the scoring slack recently.
