To any Wooster fans in Rochester who saw both games last night: what are your impressions of Brockport and how do you think the Scots will do tonight?

Here is the link to the Plain Dealer article:
Port carries Wooster past JCU

GO SCOTS!

For some reason, the Plain Dealer article isn't coming up.  Will it be a violation of some kind to paste the article here?

Yeah, it's a violation of their copyright.

I would say if there's a few paragraphs you can excerpt that would be reasonable.

The Above the Rim basketball game predicts Wooster over Brockport, the Scots holding on for a 92-86 win.

Given how spot on (winners wise, anyway) those have been this postseason, I would think that's a good omen for the Scots...

Yea....the link was broken because they have removed the digital file on Cleveland.com. :(

I will paraphrase the most interesting points in the article:

When Tom Port was graduating from Avon Lake High School about 4 years ago, JCU Coach Mike Moran lobbied D1 Cleveland State's Coach (Rollie Massimino at that time) to give Port a basketball scholarship.  Despite Coach Moran's strong lobbying efforts, Cleveland State didn't offer Port and he went to D1 Miami University on a football scholarship before he eventually transferred to Wooster.

The article also recaps the fact that Tom Port had 16 points and 11 rebounds vs. JCU and that he was a major factor in Wooster notching the win over the Blue Streaks.  Later in the article, it describes that Wooster as a team had too much firepower for JCU and it also notes that the Scots will play Brockport State in the Elite Eight.

At the Half:  Brockport State 44  Wooster 33 :(

Wooster has their hands full tonight with an extremely quick Brockport team.  The Golden Eagles shot over 70% from the floor for most of the half but did cool off to about 53% compared to only 43% for Wooster.  Scots also had 9 turnovers in the half.

Wooster is being led by James Cooper with 15 points, Brandon Johnson with 6 points and Tim Vandervaart with 5 points.

Brockport top scorers are Sherod Harris with 15 points, Cantrel Parish with 7 points and Brandon Williams with 6 points.

GO SCOTS!
