Free Throws

By Hoya Hoops

Before the season-opening win against Tulane, we asked Hoya fans to predict how many points Greg Monroe would score in his Louisiana homecoming. The big fella had a great game, scoring 18 points and grabbing 11 rebounds, both game highs. That means that Let’s Go Hoyas, last year’s champion, Missy was the closest, off by only one. Well done!

The Hoyas played very well for most of the game against the Green Wave, but one area in which they struggled was from the free throw line. The team went 11-18, which translates to only 61% from the stripe. We wonder how the team will fare tomorrow against Temple.

What will the Hoyas’ free throw percentage be?

We think last game’s woes were an anomaly, and the team will right the ship against the Owls, shooting 80% on 16 for 20.

What are your thoughts? Post your guesses.

    How are you coming up with the winner? Hoyassince birth guessed 20 and 10 and Missy says guessed 18 and 9. You asked for pts and rebounds. Ithink those 2 guesses where closer than Let’s go hoyas.

    @Bobby in Tennessee:

    You’re right, there was some sort of miscalculation. We’ll update the post with the correct winner.

    For this game’s predicition do you want numbers or just a percentage.

    I’m going to go with 77% from the line for the hoyas.
