They had several opportunities up 10-12 in the first half to put the game away, but they let western Carolina hang around. Glad they pulled out the win though.
We certainly can't afford to lose to the #287 KenPom and #295 T-Ranking Catamounts. ETSU is ranked in the #150's and will not be much of an underdog Wednesday.
Gardner-Webb beat these guys by 28, so next Wednesday is no guarantee either. This was as close to a sure-win as there was left on the schedule. Everything will be earned from here on out.
