It's Postseason Time

I want to apologize for the delay lately. I have been busy working on a project at work and then my computer at home went down so there was no way for me to keep everything running smooth.

The regular season is officially over and now it's on to the ACC Tournament where I am sure you all heard that we are the 3 seed and take on the winner of the Miami-GT game on Friday at 9:30. Those two teams just played a double-overtime affair on Sunday with Miami winning by 5. Hopefully they play another double-OT game so we have easy picking on Friday night and can rest some key players for Saturday. This will be the first time in 2 months that we will have to play back-to-back games and possibly back-to-back-to-back games for the first time in 3 months. Our lack of depth will really be tested.

I have liked the way the team has played since the Duke loss. We seem to go out there and establish ourselves as the better team and aren't letting teams back into the game as we did after the first Duke loss. Our key questions heading into Friday are which Shay and Ashleigh will show up. Hopefully it's the ones from the beginning of the season.

Some other news:

  • Langhorne First Team All-ACC; Doron and Coleman Second Team All-ACC. For some reason 5 people didn't think Langhorne was a First Team performer. I would like to meet those 5 people.
  • Charlie Creme Finally Gave us a 1 seed in his latest bracketology. We needed Tennessee to lose first before that came to fruition.
  • The Duke loss didn't change our poll position, but we did pick up 32 points in the latest AP poll.
  • Good article today in the Baltimore Sun about the team's mindset heading into the ACC Tournament.
  • Some letters to the editor (Letter 1 Letter 2) over the Diamondback recently because of what this idiot wrote on Feb. 22. I have a feeling that Kunal couldn't score a basket against any of our players.
