In addition to Singleton's 22 points, freshman Okaro White scored 17, junior Bernard James totaled 14 (and nine rebounds), freshman Ian Miller scored 12 (to go along with a game-high seven assists) and junior Xavier Gibson scored 11 (in addition to eight rebounds) as nine of the 11 Seminoles who appeared in the game got themselves into the scoring column.
"I thought it was a good team for us to play against because they are a veteran team," said Hamilton. "That offensive system that they run, most coaches will tell you that you have to spend a lot of time working on it. They challenged all of our defensive principles consistently and even though we were playing very hard, and very aggressive, we hadn't really prepared for their system. I am happy that we played a team that mixed their defenses up, they played mostly zone, and we have been working mostly on our man-to-man defense. We do have some systems in to attack zones. They ran one system tonight, they ran the 1-3-1 and we haven't practiced against it at all. We drew it up in the time out and came out and I think we executed very well.
Miami 102 Barry 33
From Miami's official website...
Miami's DeQuan Jones and Rion Brown combined for 32 points, nearly outscoring Barry in the University of Miami's 102-33 blowout exhibition win over the Buccaneers Wednesday night at the BankUnited Center.
Miami jumped out to a quick 28-8 lead eight minutes into the game and the rest was history. Ten different `Canes scored by halftime as UM led 52-18 at the break. It was much of the same in the second half, with UM's lead expanding to as much as 70 in the late in the game.
In his first game as a `Cane, Brown scored 16 - including 11 in the first half - on 5-of-7 from the field, 4-of-6 from behind the arc and 2-of-2 from the line. Jones also poured in 16, but his impact on the boards with seven rebounds helped the `Canes to huge advantage on the glass.
"Coming into the game, I met with Coach [Frank] Haith and we talked about what I needed to do to make the team successful," Jones said. "We talked a lot about rebounding and he explained that if I put all of my energy into rebounding, that everything else would take care of itself."
He was joined on the glass by Donnovan Kirk, who had a successful night in his return to the court with a double-double performance of 11 points (4-of-4 FG, 2-of-2 FT) and 10 rebounds. Reggie Johnson (13 points, 6 rebounds) and Malcolm Grant (15 points, 3 assists) also reached double-figure scoring.
