By John Sinnett on March 21, 2012 8:28 AM | 3 Comments | No TrackBacks
After rallying back from a 17-point second-half deficit, UMass now has a date with Madison Square Garden. The Minutemen came-from-behind last night to defeat Drexel 72-70 in Philadelphia. Terrell Vinson scored 14 of his 18 points in the second half leading a Minutemen charge as UMass closed the half shooting nearly 71 percent from the floor.

UMass will face tonight's winner of the Stanford/Nevada quarterfinal game next Tuesday at 7 PM. The game will be televised live from New York City on ESPN2.





Gazette: Terrell Vinson delivers for UMass men's basketball when game is on the line

By John Sinnett on March 19, 2012 10:28 AM | No Comments | No TrackBacks
Matt Vautour of the Daily Hampshire Gazette has a feature piece on Terrell Vinson and his clutch performances in big games for the UMass basketball team.

Terrell Vinson's highlights aren't likely to end up on SportsCenter's top 10.  

The University of Massachusetts men's basketball team has its share of breathtaking dunks and enough alley-oops to potentially be called Lob U. Chaz Williams has gotten well-deserved attention for his game-changing speed and program-changing leadership and Raphiael Putney's improved game and freakish athleticism have made him a fan favorite and a media star.  

But with the game on the line, or in Saturday's case the season on the line, the Minutemen have looked to Vinson and more often than not, the junior has delivered.

    Matt Vautour writes in Wednesday's edition of the Daily Hampshire Gazette about UMass basketball forward Terrell Vinson, who is beginning his junior year fully healthy after dealing with nagging injuries for much of his sophomore campaign in 2010-11.

    "There was some frustration and injuries. A lot of things weren't perfect for him last year," UMass coach Derek Kellogg said. "He's had the best preseason he's had since he's been here. His attitude has been great. He's been looking to do what the team needs him to do."

    Vautour also hits on some other basketball topics including news on Jesse Morgan, former UMass coaches, and Sunday's coaches clinic hosted by Derek Kellogg.

    Gazette: Dinged-Up UMass Hosts Maine

    By Jason Yellin on December 8, 2010 8:52 AM | No Comments | No TrackBacks
    The Daily Hampshire Gazette has a look at tonight's UMass-Maine basketball game.

    Daryl Traynham's foot, ankles for both Javorn Farrell and Terrell Vinson - they're all healthy enough to play but problematic enough to keep three key players in the University of Massachusetts' rotation well below 100 percent.

    After Saturday, the Minutemen will have 10 days between games, allowing coach Derek Kellogg to rest some of his players as they focus on final exams.

    Until then he's hoping his players can keep grinding through two more games at the Mullins Center, tonight against Maine (7 p.m.) and Saturday against Seton Hall.

    Gazette Feature On VA Thanksgiving Visit

    By Jason Yellin on November 26, 2010 9:47 PM | No Comments | No TrackBacks
    Matt Vautour of the Daily Hampshire Gazette has a great feature story on the UMass basketball team and its visit to the VA Hospital in Northampton.

    With too little time between Wednesday's win over American International College and Saturday's 3 p.m. game against Holy Cross, most of the University of Massachusetts men's basketball players didn't go home for Thanksgiving.

    Instead, the Minutemen visited and shared a turkey dinner with staff at the Northampton Veteran Affairs Medical Center in Northampton on Thursday.

    UMass coach Derek Kellogg said it was a new experience for most of his players and he was proud of the way they handled themselves.

    "It was an eye-opening thing for a lot of us. You want to go and have a good time and brighten somebody's day and let them know we appreciate what they've done," Kellogg said. "Some of them don't have families or can't get home to their families, so it was good to go and change the monotony."

    The Springfield Republican has a preview of the UMass basketball exhibition tilt vs. Brandeis on Thursday night at the Mullins Center.

    There is no cash admission, but fans can enter by donating two cans of non-perishable food or a meal. Donations will benefit The Food Bank of Western Massachusetts. The players are doing their best to drum up support for a team without identifiable stars, but convinced it can improve on last year's 12-20 record with a collective effort.

    They have even gone door-to-door, delivering tickets to season-ticket holders and meeting their fans face-to-face.

    Gazette: Feature On Hoops Sophomores

    By Jason Yellin on October 12, 2010 10:40 AM | No Comments | No TrackBacks
    In the Daily Hampshire Gazette, Matt Vautour has a great feature on the sophomore class of UMass basketball.

    A year ago, the four University of Massachusetts freshmen didn't know just how much they didn't know. As they prepared for the 2009-10 season, the rookies - Terrell Vinson, Javorn Farrell, Freddie Riley and Sampson Carter - all declared the freshman class ready for prime time.

    At times they looked the part. Each had promise-revealing moments during their first collegiate season in which all four played a lot of minutes. But over the course of the year the Minutemen freshmen played like freshmen.

    Now sophomores, the quartet is considerably more seasoned and wiser about what to expect.
