Let's also congratulate the women's team
I've enjoyed watching the ladies this season.

Anyone who says money can't buy happiness never had season tickets.
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.
Great Job Ladies...
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.

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.paladinfan12 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2019 9:12 pmLooks like the makeup of a fun weekend in Asheville.

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.
