On paper, the Wyoming Cowboy basketball team’s home opener should have been a walk in the park. Concordia, St. Paul, a D-II program that posted a 10-18 overall record a year ago came into the Arena-Auditorium on college basketball’s opening night as heavy underdogs.
Yet, after one half of play, the Golden Bears were well in the contest, only trailing by a score of 45-51. Just how were the Golden Bears, the definite under dogs in this one, sticking it to this Cowboys’ squad in the first half?
The Golden Bears’ 45.2% mark from the field is certainly a number that sticks out on the first half box score.
