And they came close to beating the first place Mercer team on their home court in the previous game. This is a very young team with only 1 senior. Plus they are peaking at the right time. They have a very solid chance to win the SoCon championship. I assume that will silence the Jackie Carson critics on the board.

SoCon's women's basketball has been quite the opposite of the men this year - it's one of the weakest conferences in the country. From a national standpoint, this year's women's team is in basically the same spot the program has been in for 6 years.
As I've said before though, I think Carson is doing pretty well given the context (resources, conference, etc.).

Looks like the makeup of a fun weekend in Asheville. I think both teams are now favorites in every game except the final. Those of you who can make it will have fun! I've never seen a Furman SoCon Tourney BB champ in my time as an FU fan.

After falling behind by 13 to #7 Sammy, FU ended the half on a 20-4 run to take a 32-29 halftime lead. The FU band is in the house.

Keep in mind, you would have to be 39 to have even been born the last time the Furman men won a tourney title, and unless you're a prodigy, to remember it you would have to be mid-40s.

The women advance to the Championship game! Congrats ladies! Hopefully there's a large crowd in Asheville Saturday to cheer them on.

That's how you finish a game! Excellent timeout and regroup by Coach Carson with a few minutes left and UTC going on a run. Beat Mercer!

Beat Chattanooga 73-67 and will play Mercer at 12 p.m. Sunday. Mercer is in its fourth title game in five years in the league. Congrats to the Paladins!
