Just got a chance to see Colby play for the first time. They lost an absolute heartbreaker at the buzzer.
I can't take away anything from Aaron Westbrooks obviously for hitting a clutch shot, but when Artie Cutrone on Colby hit a shot with 3.8 seconds left, I found it incredible how Pat Hasiuk had enough time to drive the length of the floor, stop in the middle of the lane, and then pass to Aaron and hit the game winner. Everyone who was there knows Trinity got a couple extra seconds before the time-keeper started the clock. I guess thats how it goes on the road.
I expect Colby will find a way to get into the playoffs. They are obviously playing well, losing extremely tight games to good teams, but need to find a way down the stretch to get the W. Their 3 games left against Bates, Bowdoin and Tufts are all very winnable and I would not want to be a 1 or 2 seed and have to play them in the 7 or 8 spot.
