Didn't watch live, but quickly watching the replay. It's hard to read a lot into this sort of game, Chaminade was outmatched on all ends. We've seen plenty of times in the past where we back-off pressing once we face good teams. Will we continue this year? Some observations.

Hensley was our only player who played as a backup 4 and seemed to be in mostly when Kalu was at the 5. It looks like Kalu is our weakest defender (and possibly rebounder) at the 5, so it makes sense to pair him with Hensley.

Lakhin started and looks like our best 5. Kalu getting the majority of backup minutes and Ody whatever it left.

Passing was very good from all positions, but also a lot of high risk passes that might be TO's against better teams. It's a thin line to walk between great passes and TO's.

Skillings has a ton of potential and seems like he rebounds well, but needs to clean up his defense.

What's up with Josh Reed? Injury? I figured he'd see at least a few minutes.

MAW finished at the rim, hope that continues against tougher competition.

Not much effort to get offensive rebounds by a lot of our players. We only sent one to the boards a lot of the time. Skillings and Hensley were the only guys besides our centers who seemed to consistently fight on the offensive glass.

Nolley's offensive game seems to be as diverse, skilled as advertised. I'm still a little doubtful of his shooting based on his past history.
