Best of luck to AU in the NCAA Tournament! Hope you guys make some noise for the USASAC!

Wow, AU's leading at Centre, 35-22, at the half!

Twelve in a row for AU ... 76-71 over Centre on the Colonels' court.

AU had a great game plan and executed beautifully. Congratulations to Averett and the USA South from a Centre fan! Really like #22. Need to ride him through the next round.

The Quakers and the Cougars Round II tomorrow night ... wish the NCAA would let them move that game back to the Piedmont instead of playing in front of an empty house in Danville, KY. It's a complete reversal of Black Friday last year in Greensboro when both GC & AU fell ... then Widener and St. Mary's (MD) played on Saturday in front of a very sparse crowd.

Congratulations to both teams!

You're right it won't be a full house with neither KY team advancing. But there are a few hoops fans in this state that will show up to join Quaker and Cougar supporters in following the 2nd round game!

Glad to hear it! These schools are only 50 miles apart and the players know each other well. They play each other each year and the recruiting regions overlap. In some cases, they've played against one another since HS. They'll go after each other!

Shenandoah and Juan Dixon got mentioned during the Pitt/Villanova game tonight as the announcers were talking about Pitt's Jermaine Dixon and his basketball-playing brothers. They said Juan was in the stands watching. Nice.

i'm hearing good things about the monarch recruiting class...a couple of solid 6'4"/6'5" posts, a shooter that the coaching staff is very high on and they have a 6'9" project in the fold

they missed out on an impact 6'9" inch kid who took a d2 scholly (and had an offer from probably the worst d1 in the country)...they spent a lot of time on him and he was coming to mu if the scholarship didn't pan...but it did
