Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 2105752, member: 6927"] Only one second-round game of the WNIT remains to be played. That would be tomorrow's [B]Abilene Christian @ SMU[/B] matchup. [B]Tulane[/B] raced out to a 38-19 halftime lead over Grambling State and then coasted to a 66-49 win. Tulane next plays at Alabama in the round of 16. [B] UCF[/B] played [B]Georgia Tech[/B] tooth-and-nail until the final few minutes. UCF went ahead 49-47 with 4:38 to play, but then went cold and was outscored 16-2 the rest of the way. GT had wins this season over Missouri and Syracuse and was just a few nail-biter losses away from a possible at-large bid. UCF, playing this game at Georgia Tech, competed very well but is surely disappointed with those final 4 minutes. Nine of today's 12 games were won by the home team. The only visiting teams to win today were [B]Colorado[/B] (in overtime at South Dakota State), [B]Villanova[/B] (at Drexel), and [B]UC Davis[/B] (at Colorado State). The only power-5 teams that lost today were Virginia (at [B]James Madison[/B]) and Wake Forest (at [B]MTSU[/B]). [B]Virginia Tech[/B], [B]Penn State[/B], [B]Indiana[/B], and [B]Alabama[/B] all advanced, in addition to Georgia Tech. One intriguing subplot: [B]St. John's[/B] handled Harvard to set up a game against its former coach, now at Michigan. [/QUOTE]
