Teams #121 and #122 - Tulane and George Mason

On Saturday, December 17th, 2022, I saw my 121st and 122nd Division One College Basketball teams. On this occasion, I saw the Tulane Green Wave take on the George Mason Patriots. Tulane is the 3rd team that I have seen out of the American. George Mason is 7th team I have seen out of the Atlantic 10. Tulane has a 6-3 record on the year. They most recently played Buffalo and they won in convincing fashion 88-63. The leading scorer for Green Wave is Jalen Cook who is averaging 20.8 PPG in only four games played. George Mason has a 6-4 record on the year. They most recently played Maryland Eastern Shores and they won 67-54. The leading scorer for the Patriots is Josh Oduro and he is averaging 13.7 PPG. Oddly enough around this time last year I was scheduled to see Wisconsin play George Mason. Unfortunately that game was cancelled due to COVID. 

This was another great back and forth game. Tulane led at the half 24-22. Second half was all George Mason as they outscored Tulane by 8. George Mason would go onto win 62-56. Victor Bailey Jr was the leading scorer with 19 points.
