Does anyone know the status of the 2 hurt players on SDSU? If they are out, it will have to be Syracuse, if they are back, I would take SDSU.

I'm not sure, but I had gotten the impression Selland wasn't expected back.

 

[Dokey]

I didn’t know about injured SDSU players. Up until learning this, I had SDSU as my sleeper team making it to FF.

21-17 Syracuse after 1Q. Took a big lead early but SDSU fought back well but SDSU got a raw foul call with .4 seconds for the 4 pt lead.

19-17 Syracuse after 1Q. Took a big lead early but SDSU fought back well.

It's been upgraded to 21-17 Cuse. Foul just before the clock expired.

Jackrabbits on a run to take the lead. 28-27 about midway thru Q2.

Rooting for the Jack Rabbits...

[nwhoopfan]

Cuse on a run to end the half. Their length is causing problems. Now up 37-29.

Mangakahia playing in this game after not playing in the ACC Tournament.

50-48 Syracuse after 3Q.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Cuse wore them down in Q4, 22-7 scoring in the quarter. 72-55 final.

 

[Shades]

Another mid-major bites the dust.

 

[eebmg]

Syracuse had 14 blocks. and hit alot of 3pt shots. Engstler in particular broke the back of SDSU If they do that, they are dangerous

 

[Plebe]

It was curtains for SDSU from the moment Selland sustained her season-ending injury several weeks ago. They lost to a horrible Omaha team in the Summit tournament, and I'm surprised they kept this close as long as they did.

With all the talent on the Syracuse roster, an 8 seed has to be considered pretty disappointing; most people had them in the top 20 to start the season. I'd personally hate to see them turn things around in the next round.

I didn't see that much of them this year. Am I correct in thinking Tiana is nowhere near the same player she was 2 years ago?
