Monday (3/11 games)

Quinnipiac punches its ticket, with some emphasis.

After a hot start by Marist, Q completely dominated the last 3 quarters for the 81-51 win. Most outstanding player is a no-brainer: Jen Fay with 25 points and 13 rebounds, including 5-8 from 3.

Great performance in the losing effort by Grace Vander Weide: 25 points including 3-4 from 3. But the key for Q on defense was holding Marist's scoring leaders, Gilmer and Hand, to a combined 13 points.
 
Meanwhile, Gonzaga-St. Mary's is going down to the wire. Tied up at 59 with just over a minute left.

Apparently Laura Stockton (John Stockton's daughter) went down with a knee injury earlier. She is sitting on the bench and using crutches with a huge brace on her leg :(

And just as I type that, SMC hits a big shot, now 61-59 with 59 seconds left.

Update: Gonzaga answers, ties it at 61 with 41 seconds left.
 
Sad to see this. Another Gonzaga player, Jill Townsend, goes down with what looks like another awful knee injury :oops::oops::oops:

It's early in 2OT. So hard to watch that.
 
2 knee injuries for GU in 1 game? Wow, that's terrible. Looks like Townsend was having a great game, 19 off the bench. Only 1 starter in double figures in 2OT is concerning, but lots of scoring from the reserves.
 
South Dakota St. rolled today and it looks like South Dakota will be joining them shortly in the Summit League title game. Should be battle between those two, might be fighting for only 1 Tourney berth.

Both of those teams are locks for at-large bids, in case they don't win the conference tourney.

Glad to hear it, I wasn't sure.
 
GU gets a game winning layup by the blue haired Rice w/ 1 second left. They'll be seriously beat up vs. whoever they face tomorrow.
 
Zykera Rice hits a somewhat amazing, somewhat wild scoop shot at the buzzer to give the Zags the win by 1 point in 2OT.

An incredibly costly game for both teams:

St. Mary's would've had a very good chance at an at-large bid with a win. Without it, not much of one.
Gonzaga won the game but lost two players to apparent season-ending injuries.

I watched the last couple of minutes of double OT. Anyone know if St. Mary's had any fouls to give in 2OT?
 
My second favorite Men's tournament Final is currently on. Of the Mid-majors... seems like the SoCon final usually produces a good game that goes down to the wire. UNC-Greensboro is currently leading #20 Wofford at the half 31-27. Teams on the Bubble are pulling for Wofford.... cause the general consensus is the Terriers are in win or lose.

Wofford is in for sure, single digit seed even with a loss here.
 
Holy cow. Doug Bruno sounds like he has emphysema and pneumonia and laryngitis all at the same time. He sounds like Marge Simpson's sisters.

DePaul pulled away from a Creighton team that improved a lot toward the end of the season. Sets up yet another DePaul-Marquette title game.

Creighton finishes 15-16, one win shy of a WNIT bid.

Oh really? Did an 11-time national champion join the SoCon? :p

Well you do know about the former SoCon members dont you? :cool: You probably have heard of a few of them

What happened to UNCG? Up 55-50, now down 66-55??

Will the SoCon be a one-bid league after all?

Wofford put the clamps down on Alonso..... UNCG has scoring problems at times... and if Alonso or Miller arent scoring.... they dont have many other consistent scorers. I thought if UNCG made the field... they would be a troublesome opponent for a higher seed. 6 losses all season.... at top 10 LSU.... at top 5 Kentucky 3 to Wofford... and 1 to a Furman team that was ranked earlier in the season.
 
Baylors defense is outstanding!

The offense though goes through a lot of major scoring droughts....


Nalyssa Smith was really good in the first half. Moon Ursin plays just as good as defense as anyone on that team.

Didi Richards needs to shoot the ball when she is 5 feet from the goal and no one near her. Her not even attempting to score is problematic sometimes. They are giving her literally all the room in the world.
