Friday, November 7th, 2014

Well tonight I was able to enjoy watching an exhibition game between the Iowa State Cyclones and the Viterbo V-Hawks.  This was the second time that I have been to an ISU exhibition game in Hilton (the other was in 2012 agains Minnesota State).  Of course the game was a complete blowout, 115 to 48, but it was still very exciting.  The Cyclones really got out and ran in transition which led to a number of entertaining dunks.  Early on in the game Daniel Edozie caught an alley-op pass with one hand and then dunked it which was pretty fun.  Six Cyclones scored in double figures... Naz Long and Sherron Dorsey-Walker each had 17 points, Niang had 12, Bryce DeJean-Jones had 13, Daniel Edozie had 14, and Kourtlin Jackson had 10 points.

Here is a link to a video with a couple of DeJean-Jones's dunks.


It was hard to take much away from this game since it was so one-sided, but the 14th ranked Cyclones really do look exciting.  They even did their damage in this game without three key players (Abdel Nader, Matt Thomas, and Jameel McKay).  I can't wait for their season opening game next Friday against Oakland!
