HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MAN?



Reading, MA – There was no telephone call. There was no email. Just a cryptic conversation with Danger Dan.

Shu-ter Patel cost Origins Unknown this time…

Instead of winning by 16, OU was only able to win by six, 60-54, against a scrappy Chili’s team. Punishment is being handed down. Shu-ter will now have to pay half of the next bar bill to atone for his laziness. If OU lost, it would have been the WHOLE bar bill.

Back to the game… It wasn’t the cleanest win that OU has seen, but in the end they did enough right to get the W. Chili’s was strapped with only four players, but those four came to play and made it tough for OU to get into rhythm. OU didn’t help the situation, with a plethora of turnovers and missed lay-ups. Keeping the game in hand was Chris “Big” Johnson, who had his best game of the young season.

OU used a balanced scoring attack, with James “Stretch” Hogan and Johnson leading the way. Danger Dan Fisher was back in the line-up after fighting off the flu last week. His ball-handling and aggressiveness was much needed against a good guard on the Chili’s team. Chili’s also made some wild shots in the face of decent defense – which seems to be a reoccurring theme for every opponent that OU faces.

OU led the entire game, but was never able to pull away due to some dismal free throw shooting. They finished the game 5 for 15 from the line, which kept things close.

Now sitting at 2-1, OU will take another week off for school vacation break, and will then return to action to take on the winless American Towers.
