Hi folks. I’ve been a fan of pawpaws for a few years now, but I have been living outside the United States since I found out about there existence. I have recently relocated to the eastern shore of Maryland for the next month and was hoping to see one. I have been on iNaturalist and know of a few possible candidates near(ish) me, but I thought I’d ask here for further advice/knowledge. I realize they might not be completely in season right now, but I literally just want to touch a leaf and say hi. I’ll only be in the US till the end of august. Any help is welcome!
MD Eastern Shore 63, UConn 72: UConn escaped with a surprisingly close win against a team ranked 351 out of 358 teams.
The Good: Last year I saw Cole as being a pretty good point guard when paired with an explosive scorer like Bouknight, but I think he's elevated his game this season. This game was another one where he was the primary scorer in a game when they needed pretty much all that scoring. He scored 25 pts while shooting 6-12 on 2s, 2-4 on 3s, and 7-7 on FTs. He also had 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.
The only complaint is that he once again crossed midcourt and got caught in a trap that led to a turnover. This probably isn't all on Cole - his teammates could give him passing options prior to this happening - but it's a little disconcerting that UConn struggled with the trap in the B4A and again in this game.
The Pretty Good: Polley provided 14 pts, shooting 2-3 on 2s, 2-7 on 3s, and 4-5 on FTs. Gaffney shot 0-2 on 2s but 2-3 on 3s and added 3 rebounds and 5 assists.
Whaley didn't score much, but his 7 rebounds, 2 steals, and 5 blocks were pretty important. Jackson scored even less, but had 7 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 steals. Whaley and Jackson have some limitations offensively, but they do fill up a stat sheet in a lot of games. (One down note for Jackson was that he had 3 more turnovers, and now leads the team in that category.)
The Martin Injury: Martin sprained his wrist during the B4A but played through it. He sat out this game though, and may be out the next few weeks to allow it to heal.
It's easy to think that Martin's injury had something to do with the game result - described as "flat", "undisciplined", and "lacking toughness" - and contributed to UConn getting outrebounded in the 1st half^(1).
Hawkins started in Martin's place, and he did have his moments, but it's easy to think Martin would have been more productive in those minutes. On the other hand, it may be that Hawkins will improve faster with additional playing time.
The Sanogo Injury: Quoting Hurley, he's got a "lower abdominal thingy", and it certainly limited his minutes, and probably limited his productivity. It sounds like they'll know more about the injury the day after the game.
Against a team like UMES, Sanogo's absence probably isn't critical; their biggest player is only around 6'5", so UConn's going to have a size advantage anytime Whaley or Polley are out the
