Quote from: Nites on March 19, 2006, 09:57:12 AMOf course, IW, with its 2 First Team All-Americans and a third kid (Freeman) who was Second Team All-Region, may have been either the most overrated or most underachieving team in the country.

They made the Final Four and lost to the eventual national champions by two points. Nobody who makes the Final Four can be called "underachieving".
I  was at Salem and agree there were no "underachievers".  The total point spread for the 4 games was about 12.  Any one of those teams could  have won and been "great" champs.  They are in the~ top 1% of the teams and it takes skill and luck to get there.  For those who have never seen the tourney it`s fun,intense and a great honor to be there  and you would be hard pressed to find a D3 player who wouldn`t give a lot to make the trip to VA.

Dan Wheeler from B.Jefferson was just selected  2nd team all NESCAC.  His brother Steve will join him playing for Amherst next year.

Nice Amherst win tonight heading into a big weekend. (99-76).  Wheeler with 24 pts on 8/10 shooting...the boys are coming together.
