A Look at the Vikings:
X's & O's
Salem State is a dynamic team offensively; they will put up big numbers via transition or through their shot-making ability in the half-court. When Hodges is on the floor, the offense flows through him, with a simple motion set allowing him to create a shot for himself or others. MIT will need to limit dribble penetration and force the Vikings to settle for long-range twos.
On the defensive end they will use an aggressive 1/2-court man, with Ortiz providing on-ball pressure. They force over 17 TO's a game, so MIT will need to be patient and meticulous on offense, as their 19 TO's led to their demise last game.
