The nets have been switched at Delta Heart
The NCAA heard Arizona coach Tommy Lloyd’s plea.
On Friday, Lloyd had a easy repair for the tight nets that plagued the first-round video games on the Delta Heart.
“I do not suppose it is onerous to search out nets the place the ball goes via,” Lloyd stated forward of the Wildcats’ second-round recreation towards the Dayton Flyers. “So, go as much as the College of Utah, take the nets off the basket, as a result of they’re most likely not stopping there, and produce them right here. It is not difficult.”
Whereas the NCAA did not go as much as the college for nets, it has switched them out forward of Saturday’s second-round video games. An NCAA spokesperson advised KSL.com that the nets have been swapped out and examined, which, hopefully, removes the problems that had been ever-present through the first spherical.
The nets had been too tight and infrequently prompted the ball to both get caught completely or be delayed going via them. On no less than three totally different events on Thursday— following Arizona’s victory over Lengthy Seaside State within the first recreation, at halftime of the McNeese-Gonzaga contest and earlier than the ultimate recreation of the day — Delta Heart crew staff tried to stretch out the nets.
“Simply stays in there. Discuss stopping a quick break. Jeesh. Hopefully they’ve that mounted by (Saturday),” Lloyd stated.
