Dayton runs out to an early lead and never trails in beating Duquesne to become the lone undefeated team in the Atlantic 10, 79-70.

Colorado State helped cloud the MWC picture by snapping Wyoming's 7-game winning streak in Laramie 64-53. Tvrdy had 25 points.
UNLV can tie Wyoming atop the standings at 7-2 if they win at San Jose State tonight.

I watched the replay of the Oklahoma-Kansas State "scream game" last night (Oklahoma won big) and boy, do I ever like Vionise Pierre-Louis! So smooth, and so quick at getting where she needs to be! Lots of bigs would do well to study her. She also finished with 26 points.

In some Horizon action - UWGB looks to be setup to avenge their loss at Northern Kentucky - they lead 27-14 at halftime over NKU. And it's a close battle in Milwaukee with UWM holding a 31-27 lead over Wright State at halftime.

North Florida upsets FGCU by 2. In the excitement I forgot the final score, think it was 75-73.

Last night was actually kinda "fruit basket upset" in the ACC. In addition to VT beating Syracuse *in the dome*, the following oddities (and not so oddities) happened:
Louisville completely wiped out UVA, 77-41
Notre Dame took out UNC, 94-62
Duke stomped on GA Tech, 77-59
Those might have been expected, but not by such margins. However,
NC State beat FSU, 65-56
and of course, there was that VA Tech-Syracuse game
And among the basement dwellers
Wake Forest took out poor old Boston College, 67-59 (hey BC, come over to the CAA, we play football!)
and Pitt beat Clemson, 58-42

JMU went down to Williamsburg and tromped all over William and Mary, 86-41. Four Dukes were in double figures, and a couple of them held a block party--Devon Merritt with 4 and Kayla Cooper-Williams with 2. Kayla is rapidly rising on the JMU record list, now tied at 7th for total blocks, and since she's only a (redshirt) sophomore, I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up at the top before she's done. Logan Reynolds not only scored in double figures but had 5 steals--gosh, I love that girl! Elon is next, on Sunday, in their tiny gym.

Georgetown at Villanova is a good game so far - 51-50 Villanova with 9 minutes to go in the 4th quarter.

What a crazy ending. Georgetown down 3 with 5 seconds to go and timeouts remaining. Doesn't call one to advance the ball. Villanova fouls with 3 seconds left (foul to give) in the backcourt. Still no timeout. Pass inbounds to player streaking in for layup. Villanova wins by one.
Georgetown has not won a game this season where they have been trailing with under 5 minutes to go, per the announcers. I think I know why.

The most Jekyll and Hyde team of the year has to be the Norse of Northern Kentucky. They are 4-17, but have wins over Green Bay and E Tennessee St (2nd in the Southern). They also played Milwaukee within 3 and Wright St within 5 in their first matchup this season. The Norse are at it again today, up 29-15 at the half on the road at Milwaukee.

Ball State's at-large hopes took a hit today as the Cardinals went down at Ohio, 80-76. Ohio built up a 25-point lead in the first half, but BSU came all the way back to tie it with 7 minutes left in the fourth quarter. Ohio then went on a run and made enough free throws down the stretch to claim the win. The game featured a total of 57 fouls called, with five players fouling out.

Northern Kentucky holds on for a 60-57 win. The Norse led the whole way but Milwaukee close to within 2 with 5 seconds to go. Milwaukee is now borderline NIT.

Zags travel to BYU and win handily over the Cougs to take a 4 game lead in the WCC. Jill Barta had 34 points and 14 boards for the Zags. Gonzaga had 23 assists on 26 baskets and shot 8-16 from three (they were ranked in the 300s among all schools in 3pt %.
