But the two players were guarding each other almost exclu- sively at that time, and McMahon was able to send Mrozienski to the bench at the 6:48 mark with three fouls. “It hurt us when we had to sit him,” said Hamilton coach Tom Murphy, who considers McMahon and Mrozienski two of the best players in the New England Small College Athletic Conference [NESCAC]. “They went at itpretty good.” Went at it for the first half, that is. Murphy switched Mrozienski off McMahon in the second half, a move that kept his big forward from fouling out, and allowed McMahon to surge on the offen- sive end. “Basically the other guys who guarded me weren’t that strong defensively,” said McMahon, who scored his 1,500th point against Hamilton. “When I get isolated Photo by Ben Margoles underneath, I can usually get a Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the baddest 6’4“ forward of them Photo by Ben Mzgoles all?
