... the bluegrass. Second-seeded Louisville lost to Michigan 73-69 in the earlier second-round game in Indianapolis. 2:30 p.m. Michigan's 73-69 upset of Louisville exemplifies the role reversals between the Atlantic Coast Conference and Big Ten this postseason. The ACC led all conferences with nine NCAA Tournament invitations and was billed as the best league in the nation this season. The Big Ten had a disappointing regular season and had none of its teams seeded higher than fourth in the NCAA field. Yet the Big Ten already has sent three teams to the Sweet 16 with Purdue, Wisconsin and Michigan advancing. In the meantime, the ACC doesn't have any regional semifinalists yet and is down to just two teams left in the tournament: North Carolina and Duke. North Carolina faces Arkansas and Duke meets South Carolina later today as the two traditional ACC heavyweights chase Sweet 16 berths. The ACC's struggles represent a stunning turn of events for a team that had done very well in March lately. The ACC had four ...

Sweet 16-bound? Wichita State Must Play Better To Get There

... upset and an opportunity to prove the selection committee, and the rest of its doubters, wrong. Just one problem. The Shockers won't alter any perceptions or advance if they bring Friday's effort against a Kentucky squad, assuming the Wildcats beat Northern Kentucky on Friday night, with a pair of possible future NBA lottery picks named Malik Monk and De'Aaron Fox. In the first half of Friday's win, Wichita State finished 2-for-12 from the 3-point line and 10-for-28 overall. The Shockers put together an impeccable defensive effort in the second half, holding the Flyers to an 8-for-29 shooting clip. But Dayton's engine is not comparable to a Kentucky offense ranked eighth in adjusted offensive efficiency. Fox's speed, Monk's explosiveness and a roster that features six players 6-foot-9 or taller will present problems on both ends of the floor for the Shockers. You can't go 6-for-20 from beyond the arc (19-for-48 overall) and commit 16 turnovers - ...

Wichita State’s Landry Shamet Taking First Steps On National Stage

... Suellentrop take a look at Wichita State’s game against Kentucky in Indianapolis. One of them believes Wichita State will win. His size (6-foot-4) is ideal for a point guard and his shooting stroke is picturesque. He redshirted last season to recover from a stress fracture in his left foot, moved to point guard in mid-January and his success fueled a 16-game win streak that took WSU into the second round of the NCAA Tournament. “He’s really good,” Calipari said. “He’s fearless. He’s not afraid, can shoot it, runs their team.”. Shamet’s NCAA Tournament debut wasn’t his typical effort. He missed 4 of 5 three-pointers and committed four turnovers, three in the first half. He played with more calm and purpose in the second half and helped awaken WSU’s offense with drives to the basket on his way to eight second-half points. “I just didn’t play very well,” he said. Shamet came to ...

... news conference. NCAA spokesman David Worlock says it is standard procedure for the wife of a coach to be escorted to the press conference but it is usually done by school officials. Lynn Marshall remained in the stands about 10 minutes after the final buzzer. She at first consoled fans and family members of the team’s players. But then she started shouting loudly about the calls made during the game. Eventually, the people around coaxed her to leave and the police officer followed. Fellas, talk about a ride or die chick. Gregg Marshall, I love your wife. Inappropriate? …maybe Entertaining? …YES ! (Security visit #3) __link__/c F 6 SGQUNYK. — Kennedy Hardman (@kennedy_hardman) March 19, 2017.

Wichita State Shakes Off Dayton, 64-58

... ask the stunned Flyers. The Shockers' powerful offense stalled out until the closing minutes, but their defense carried them through to a 64-58 victory over Dayton on Friday night in the South Regional. Make it 16 consecutive wins for the Shockers (31-4), who brought their reputation for piling up the points on the way to Indianapolis, along with the feeling that they'd been slighted by their No. 10 seed. They made the gritty plays in a game lacking style points. “It was definitely something a little brand new to us from what we've seen in the Missouri Valley,” said Zach Brown, who had 12 points, including a late three-pointer. “But I don't know — we've just grinded it out. It was a tough game.”. And they were the tougher team. Dayton (24-8) came in with a wealth of experience, playing in its school-record fourth consecutive NCAA tournament. The Flyers start three seniors and have five overall, with a lot of shared tournament moments. This one ranks at the ...

Cal Poly Baseball Team Stymied 2-0 In Series Finale Against Wichita State

... a 2-0 advantage. Shockers’ starting pitcher Zach Lewis made the lead stand up and turned in his best statistical outing of the season. The 6-foot-4, 225-pound senior limited the Mustangs to four hits over seven scoreless innings, to go with six strikeouts and two walks. Schneider delivered an equally impressive performance, allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits over seven innings. He struck out five and walked one before turning the ball over to the Mustangs’ bullpen to start the eighth. “Schneider was great,” Lee said. “Threw a lot of strikes.”. The 6-7, 245-pound Schneider could be a key piece of the puzzle for the Mustangs moving forward. Lee confirmed Sunday that junior right-hander Jarred Zill — who was expected to be the No. 2 starter this spring — will be out for the year after undergoing season-ending Tommy John surgery on Saturday. Sophomore Bobby Ay also was unavailable this weekend with muscle tightness in his arm, Lee said, but he is expected to return when the Cornhuskers visit Baggett Stadium for a four-game series beginning Thursday night. “Pitching-wise, over the course of the week we were great,” Lee said. “We had 31 innings, three ...

Kentucky Relies On Defense To Outlast Wichita State, 65-62

... win. Wham, bam, move on Wildcats, right into the NCAA tournament's Sweet 16. The youngest team in March Madness grew up in the closing minutes on Sunday and sent Wichita State to yet another second-round heartbreak, 65-62 in a South Regional game. “They're young, but they have a will to win and play with courage and are skilled basketball players and great kids who share,” Coach John Calipari said. The freshman trio made all of the significant plays in the final minutes. De'Aaron Fox had 14 points, including a late steal and dunk. Malik Monk blocked a shot and made two free throws in the final 13 seconds. Adebayo had 13 points and 10 rebounds, and he finished it off by swatting away Landry Shamet's three-point attempt as it left his hand with less than a second left. “He pump-faked, and I knew he had to shoot it so I just went up and tried to block it,” Adebayo said. As simple as that. Kentucky (31-5) moved into the Sweet 16 for the seventh time in nine years. The ...

Uk 65, Wichita State 62

... bring the blue-shaded crowd to life and finally get some breathing room. Yet when it was still there for the taking in the final moments, UK eventually did it. It means something that Kentucky has shown it can beat a capable opponent in a game that didn't suit its style. Highlights were sparse, but the Wildcats survived and advanced to Memphis. End of the day, that's all that matters. THE FRESHMEN LED THEM. No one should doubt the strength of Kentucky's team after this. Once the season was truly on the line, the five-star freshmen did what five-star recruits are supposed to do. Bam Adebayo had another double-double of 13 points and 10 rebounds. De'Aaron Fox got a steal and dunk for a 7-point lead with 4:01 to play. He scored 14 points. And then there were the final-minute heroics (see below) from Malik Monk, who also scored 14. The trio combined for 41 of Kentucky's 65 points. AND HOW ABOUT MONK. While he's still waiting for his shooting stroke to return, Monk made game-winning plays for Kentucky. He contributed four assists in this game, including a ...
