“Live by the three, die by the three” was the main theme in this matchup between Boeheim’s Army and The Nerd Team. The main barometer of success, or lack thereof, was three point shooting. The Nerd Team made 16 of their 29 three point attempts while Boeheim’s Army made just 6 of their 26 attempts from behind the arc.
“Every one (three pointers) they needed, they got,” Boeheim’s Army head coach Jeremy Pope said.
Although a lot of The Nerd Team’s three point makes were contested and timely, Pope believes the Army could have guarded better from the perimeter.
