3/23: 76-56. 27, 4, 6 for Hort, 11, 14, 5 blocks for Redd, 12, 5 for Monn. Big edge inside again.
Loux sprained a hamstring and may not play many minutes again, maybe in the final game if we get there. Monn will start, Kell will get most of the sub minutes.
#3 seed, #10 ranked NC ST, 29-7, in the Elite Eight. We won by 40 in December. On paper we win easily.
3/25: Quick start, then they come back, then we go on a run. Up 10 after 10. 49-42 at the break. Balanced scoring. -7 at the line. 3 fouls on Prin. The game is even in the paint. Redd played 4 minutes due to fouls. With he and Prin sitting it was not easy. We’re holding the lead. Up 19 with 10 to go. And another run wraps it up.
113-75. 29, 6 for Monn, 19, 7, 3, 3 for Hort, 18 for Kell, , 9, 7 for Brow. We were better in the paint in the 2nd half. 20-50 on threes.
#2 seed, #5 ranked Gonzaga, 32-7, in the national semifinal. We beat them by 26, then 10, in back to back games in November. On paper we win easily. We’ll see!
