Wyoming won the tip but scoring started slow until Hudson Rogers got a putback and an And 1, 3-2 Wyoming. Half a minute later and Lonnie Grayson had a second effort 2, 5-3. A minute later, Walker Lewis got 2, 7-5, To my eye, Madeira and Wyoming play a similar type of game - stout defense and an smart offense. Three minute went by before Mason Rogers was fouled and brought the score to 8-7. Just thirty seconds later, Mason grabbed a D rebound, went full court and laid it in, 10-7. And then with just seconds to go in the quarter, one of my favorite plays of the game, Lonnie, at the top of the key, passed deep inside to Mason who flipped it out to Garyn Prater in the corner for a sweet 3. 13-11 at the end of the 1st quarter.
