Tonight I took Nolan over to Hilton Coliseum, where we watched our first basketball game of the year, a convincing 102-47 victory for the Cyclones over the Lindenwood Lions.
Lindenwood University is a private university located in St. Charles, Missouri. It's a suburb of St. Louis, not far from where the Gleasons live in O'Fallon. The Lions play in the Ohio Valley Conference.
Tonight marks the 30th men's basketball game that Nolan has attended. Before the game he enjoyed a Clone Cone, and he enjoyed the fact that Iowa State was able to reach the 100 point threshold.
As far as the game goes, it was such a blowout that the game did seem to lack much excitement. Tamin Lipsey was the player of the game for Iowa State. He led the team in scoring with 21 points, and he added 7 assists. Lipsey was joined in double figures scoring for the Cyclones by Milan Momcilovic (17), Keshon Gilbert (12), and Robert Jones (12). Momcilovic is only a freshman, but it already seems like he will be a very special player for the Cyclones. He connected on three 3's, and he had some nice fade-away jumpers which reminded me of Dirk Nowitzki.
