What a great feeling
By on March 21st, 2007
Well, somehow I woke up and went to class this morning. The reason — I’m heading to North Carolina this weekend to cover the regional semi-final because BG is in it.
Last night’s game was so awesome to watch that I think I had goose bumps for the final five or so minutes. When Ali Mann hit that dagger of a 3-pointer, I just about went into cardiac arrest. I had to use the bathroom since the 15-minute mark of the second half and held it because I was afraid to miss anything.
That game meant so much to BG. They’re the first MAC women’s basketball team to advance to the round of 16 and they picked a great year to do it. There is another No. 7 seed, a No. 13 seed and a No. 10 seed left. BG is one of many upsets that have happened in an event that is normally uneventful.
Now that BG has taken on a team with every weapon imaginable, it will be interesting to see if they can do even more damage. They shut down the nation’s best 3-point shooter, Caroline Williams and minimized the potential damage of Vanderbilt’s interior. Why wouldn’t they be able to do that to any other team.
That brings me to the point that Curt Miller’s scouting reports are as good as any. He and his coaching staff have a great ability to use their defensive weapons to neutralize the opponent’s best weapon. I think he could pretty much get any available job in the country right now, but that’s a topic for another day.
Congrats to the Falcons, they’re on a great ride that could very well end up in Cleveland. How cool would that be?
