\u201c[Bowling Green] is a very sound, solid basketball team. They were picked to finish at the top of the MAC,\u201d said IUWBB Head Coach Teri Moren. \u201c[The Falcons have] very good Point Guard play. As far as defense, tenacious . . . they are very disciplined, and they have a couple kids that if you lose them in transition, lose them in the halfcourt, they can make you pay from beyond the arc. . . they are very balanced.\u201d<\/dfn><\/p>\n\n\n\n
