Have to give Aurora lots of credit.  They came out to play so far the 2nd half.  Sounds like they know they have to ride their big horse  (Welton) if they are going to have a chance to keep Calvin in their reach. 

[realist]

51-51  Calvin really needs to stop some of the roll Aurora has gotten.  Fortunately Calvin has been in a couple games like this one already this year.

[Dark Knight]

60-53 on a Veltema 3.
61-55 with 7 minutes left.

Veldhouse with 16 points, Griffin with 12.

64-57 on a Griffin 3.

Calvin gets it back up to 6 points, but not able to get a knockout punch.

[realist]

3 turnovers in a row for Calvin.  Not good.

[realist]

Down to 2 points.  Calvin has to settle down, and make every trip down court count one way or the other.

[realist]

Calvin really needs a stop.  2:13 to go.

[realist]

66-62 Calvin up with 1:40 to go.

[realist]

Calvin fouled with 30 seconds to go, a 4 point lead.

Calvin by 4 with 30 sec; Veldhouse at the line 1:1

[Dark Knight]

Exciting finish! Calvin up 4 with 30 seconds left, Meckes at the line. Miss, but Calvin got an offensive board. Now Smith is at the line. Hits the first -- 67 62. Now Aurora hits a 3.
67-65, 19 seconds left, Calvin has the ball, time out.

Foul on Aurora. Veltema will go to the line. Hit, hit! 4 point lead!

Aurora hits a 3, 69-68. Calvin is down 1, with 4.9 seconds left, De Vries going to the line. Miss, miss!

Time runs out!

Knights win!

Calvin-Hope V! 8)

[realist]

This would be easier to listen to if it weren't for the missed ft's, and turnovers.

Calvin Hope V

[realist]

Calvin by 1 point 69 - 68, but it wasn't that easy.  Missed ft's, and turnovers almost doomed Calvin at the end.  Have to give Aurora lots of credit for coming back, and giving Calvin all they could handle.

Bear Devries misses both free throws, but Calvin scrambles to keep Aurora from getting any real shot--Calvin Wins Calvin Wins--bring on the Dutch!
