This was the second game of the year and we were excited because this was a game that we could win against a team that is in one of the best college basketball conferences there is. We were also excited because we were in Tampa, Florida where our sophomore forward Jay Bowie is from and his family was going to get to see him play. The game was not held on the campus of South Florida because their arena is under construction. We had to play in St. Peters Forum arena which was also a hockey arena. During the warmups we were cold from the ice we were playing on top of. The game started of good for us with Jay Bowie scoring our first four points of the game. As the game grew on and coming into the 2nd media timeout under the eight minute mark we had the lead with a score of 19-16. USF went on a 11-4 run. We responded with run of our own going into halftime down 3 points. Coming out of halftime we rallied off 7 quick points to force their coach to call a timeout. USF rallied off a 6-0 of their own. We responded with back to back 3 pointers to make the score 46-42. USF then went on a 15-0 run and never looked back. We lost the game 81-67. We played a good game but could not finish it out. I was the leading scorer with 12 points with Jay Bowie, Adam Kemp and Isaiah Morton all scoring 11 points.
