22-44 (59.1%) FG, 9-17 (52.9%) 3PT
WKU
27-68 (39.7%) FG, 5-23 (21.7%) 3PT
Gantt finishes with 31 points, as Moody (26) and Bertone (12) are also in double-figures.
Owls shoot 23-of-28 (82.1%) from the FT line, and manage to make the ones when they needed them the most.
Bertone notches 7 assists, while the team records 16 for the night.
FAU out-rebounds WKU 33-32, but is outscored in the paint 36-20.
The team's 84 points was the second highest scoring total of the season.
George Fantt paced the Hilltoppers with 25 points and 11 boards.

How does a team get 17 offensive boards (more than half their total) and lose??
???
39.7% FG, and 21.1% 3PT could be a big part of it.
WKU has flat out fallen from grace.
George Fant should put out the call for some serious help!
But not to Harper, who could be looking for new work soon…….
His buyout per Chad Bishop with the Bowling green Daily News:
“…an amount equal to the coach’s base salary as of the date of termination…”.
That figure:
$375K.
He has three years left right now; which equates to $1.125 M in monthly salary over the span left.
Gone?

I saw a great player start to shine in Moody (recalled Ray Taylor in his great year) and Gantt was fantastic. Dragan was frustratingly weak and then made a few good plays. Bertone has become a solid contributor.
The crowd was very disappointing. It was only lightly raining just before and during the game. The atmosphere was pretty weak. As usual, WKU brought a good visiting crowd. (The same thing will probably be seen of Marshall, which travels well, in the coming years.)
The FAU basketball band has been really great this season.

A student newspaper photographer and I were the only still shooters there. I can't remember the last time I saw a Post or Sun-Sentinel photographer there. That's pathetic.
