It may not have been a giant leap forward, but we saw signs of the direction Providence needs to take to be successful going forward in Saturday’s 82-78 win over Stony Brook.
Aggression must have been the focus in the seven days off following an ugly loss at Rhode Island, as the Friars picked up full court defensively from the start and looked determined to take the ball to the rim early.
The Friars got another terrific night out of sophomore David Duke. Duke has been the shining light through 11 games. He scored 21 points last night, knocking down 4-6 from 3-point range and making all five free throw attempts he took.
