Game 11: Championship - William & Mary vs. George Mason - Second Half Update

> Live on-location in Richmond, VA at the CAA Tournament

This was definitely not how William & Mary wanted the half to start. George Mason opened up the second half by going on a 9-0 run to build their lead to 10. The Tribe have done what they can to stay in this one, but Kisielius has cooled off tremendously, only scoring four points in the half so far.

As it stands, Mason leads 48-37 with 10:21 to play. The interior presence of Will Thomas and Chris Fleming are slowing becoming too much for the William & Mary frontcourt to deal with. GMU is just too big and athletic to be completely shut down on the glass. Also, Mason has started to heat up a little bit more from the outside, with Folarin Campbell having hit a nice three pointer just a few moments ago.

The official time out is over and the Tribe looked fired up making their way back onto the floor and their fans are getting loud to motivate them. I’ll be back when this one is over and after the press conferences.
