Women's Basketball Folds In Final Minute, Bounced From Mac Tournament By Western Michigan

... This time around it was WMU's Najee Smith who crushed CMU's dreams with a long 3-pointer at the top of the key.

... the Bulldogs (19-13) edge Tennessee, 59-57, and advance to face top-seeded Kentucky in the Southeastern Conference quarterfinals. Which means J. J. Frazier gets to face Kentucky in the SEC quarterfinals. Georgia put two scares into the Wildcats, and Frazier is the primary cause of those problems for John Calipari’s team. He had 23 points in an overtime loss in Lexington and another 36 in a five-point setback at home against Kentucky. And with Maten back in the fold, there’s another high-end player for Kentucky to deal with tomorrow afternoon. Georgia is missing quality victories on its resume (its lone top-50 triumph came against Vanderbilt), but it’s a commendable 7-8 away from home and has only one setback outside the top 100 (Oakland). It doesn’t belong all that close to the field of 68 right now, but it would suddenly have a better case if it can finally upend Kentucky the third time around. Middle Tennessee bears watching. The edge of the NCAA tournament field isn’t especially strong. There’s also an absence of regular season champions from likely one-bid leagues that could steal a spot in the field if ...

... was a little distracted,” Dakich said. “They wanted me to address it as a parent, and that was fine, but I was distracted.
