Moore means more (assists that is)

Junior point guard Ronald Moore's eight assists helped him surpass a couple of players, including Scott Knapp ('01) and move into sixth place in the program's all-time list.

Here's what Moore (at left, J.S. Carras - The Record) had to say.
“Whether it’s being known as one of the great point guards or being able to find guys and get assists is a great achievement. I’m going to keep doing what I do best and hopefully at the end I come out on top," Moore said.

Here's the all-time list up to date

Marc Brown 1987-91 796
Matt Brady 1983-87 593
Doremus Bennerman 1990-94 577
Melvin Freeny 1995-99 444
Michael Catino 1978-90 426
Ronald Moore 2006-present 394
Scott Knapp 1997-01 393

The Saints are 6-4 as they head home for two days to rest and relax.

“We had some tough losses early on,” Ubiles said. “None of us are happy the way we played and I think all of us are trying to re-focus to play basketball the way we played last year.”

“Coming off this break, we have to get right back to work with St. Joe’s, Holy Cross and Fairfield,” Moore said. “I think this little break is something that we needed with the schedule that we played so far this season."

Although Siena ended the first half on a 10-0 run and brought an 11-point lead into intermission, McCaffery was none to thrilled with his players.

“We rebounded the ball with 34 (seconds) and I wanted to take the last shot,” McCaffery said. “The reason I was so upset is it was the same thing that happened in the Albany game. It shouldn’t have happened the first time, but it certainly shouldn’t have happened again.”

Here's what McCaffery's floor general had to say.
“It’s something that we’ve been struggling with for a couple of games, not knowing the clock situation,” Moore said. “It’s something we go over in practice over and over again and having those mental lapses is something that frustrates coach.”
