...
Izzo called a timeout with 4:41 left and called a set to get Forbes a three-pointer. He buried it to make it 61-56. Forbes then missed three straight good looks, though, and the Gophers got it to 63-61 with less than 2 minutes to play.
“They’ve got some skilled offensive players, so we have to be ready for anything,” Forbes said. “They’ve got some guys that can score, so we’ll have to be ready on the defensive end. They’ve got a couple of guys – 6-8, 6-9 – that we haven’t faced that much this year. A few teams have that size, but I think we’ll be prepared.”Cleveland's visionary Mike Cleary -- a life of good stories and better deeds: Bill Livingston (photos)--Cleveland Plain Dealer
...
That will mean a better performance than the Spartans had against Iowa.
Eron Harris scored 21 while Costello had a career-high 17. But Forbes was held to just three points and managed only five shots as the Hawkeyes took him out of the game.
Michigan State also turned the ball over 16 times, which led to 21 Iowa points.
“We’re not happy with the last game,” Forbes said. “Losing to Iowa, I think that makes us hungrier than ever right now.”

Player of the week'Hoos Ready for ACC Gauntlet--College Sports Madness
Kahlil Felder, Oakland Golden Grizzlies
He had 37 points and nine assists in a great effort against Michigan State.
As Perrantes noted, every Cavalier has distinguished himself at one time or another this season. Against Oakland (8-5), center Mike Tobey turned in his best performance in more than a month. The 7-0 senior came off the bench to hit 7 of 8 shots from the floor and finished with 16 points and seven rebounds in 19 minutes.Evalutating the Midseason National Player of the Year Candidates--Rush The Court
"He hurt us," Oakland head coach Greg Kampe said. "He hurt us badly."
The Golden Grizzlies, Kampe said, came in hoping to force Tobey away from the basket.
"We didn't accomplish that, did we?" Kampe said with a wry smile.
...
Perrantes started slowly against an opponent led by an extraordinary point guard, 5-9 junior Kay Felder, who came in ranked first in the nation in assists and third in scoring. Perrantes picked up two fouls in a nine-second span and watched the final 14:07 of the first half from the bench.
Not coincidentally, perhaps, the Cavaliers went into the break trailing 29-28. Still, nobody in the home locker room panicked.
"Basketball's 40 minutes," Sanchez said. "We're not a knockout team. We're going to have to learn from our first halves and hopefully make the right adjustments for the second half and play selfless basketball and take care of the ball."
With Perrantes back on the floor, the `Hoos took control after intermission. He hit two 3-pointers in the first 4:35 of the second half, the second of which pushed Virginia's lead to 41-31. With 3:20 remaining, the Cavaliers led by 22.
In his past four games, Perrantes is 10 for 14 from 3-point range. He wasn't the only sharpshooter at JPJ on Wednesday night. Felder made 4 of 9 shots from beyond the arc and finished with a game-high 30 points.
Felder left with 98 seconds remaining to a warm ovation from the Cavaliers' fans.
"He's amazing," Gill said.
Felder's teammates were less effective. All five Oakland starters came in averaging at least 10.1 points, but Felder was the only one to score in double figures against UVA. He finished with three assists, six fewer than his average.
"In the first half I think we were kind of half-speed in getting back and contesting 3-point shots, and they hit a couple," Sanchez said. "I think the second half we did a much, much better job of taking advantage of the interior play and getting back in transition D."
The Golden Grizzlies, who prefer to play at a breakneck pace, came in averaging 88.4 points, but Kampe, for practical purposes, adopted a different strategy Wednesday night.
"That coach is so good, and the program is so good, nobody's going to come in here and run up and down the floor on them," Kampe said.
9. Kahlil Felder, G, Oakland — The kid known as “Kay” is the nation’s second leading scorer (26.6 PPG) and its leading assist man (9.3 APG). He’s a classic little man (5’9″) doing big things for the Golden Grizzlies. He exploded for 37 points and nine assists in last Tuesday’s overtime loss to No. 1 Michigan State and put up 30 on Wednesday night against Virginia’s vaunted defense. Greg Kampe’s breakneck offense (12th in adjusted tempo) allows Felder to get what he wants when he wants, and he can both score and set up teammates from anywhere on the floor.OAKLAND-VALPARAISO GAME TABBED FOR ESPN2--ougrizzlies.com
