It's Now The Final Two

North Carolina like they have done in every NCAA game this year came out of the box and had control of the Wildcats early.

Too much Ty Lawson, Danny Green, Wayne Ellington, Tyler Hansbrough and of all people Bobby Frazier. Of all people Bobby frazier had seven rebounds and never took a shot but when ever there was a loose ball on the floor Frazier grab it for the Heels.

Heels 83 Nova 69

Big East Power basketball took a big hit Saturday losing both games. U Conn was beaten badly by Michigan State guards and the Huskies didn't have all that much advantage inside as the power Big East was suppose to have.

Louisville losing last week cooked my goose winning any NCAA pools. Now that the Heels are playing Monday just getting Louisville to todays game would have put me in good position.

Shoulda, coulda ,woulda

I'm kicking President Obama's butt in the NCAA bracket. He stands in the 46 percentile while I'm at 71% in the ESPN Tourney. I have Carolina Monday as well as Mr president .

I am a solid 1 million two hundred thousandt place out of 5.5 million on the ESPN.

I like the floor being raised up six feet. That was neat.

They must of had Big East refs for both games. The rule Saturday was no fouls unless blood. Neither game was any thing close to pretty basketball with all the bumping pushing and arm wrestling.

A victory Saturday night by the Carolina Hurricanes gets them into the playoffs for the first time since 2006 when they won the Stanley Cup.

They have won eight games in a row and eleven straight at home.

They have three games left in the season so they are fighting for at least the opening series home ice advantage. If they can win out they could get more series home advantage if they advance in the Hockey tournament.

Gryphon baseball has most of the week off for Easter. This week all three games the Gryphons saw left handed pitchers and Brian Goodwin was kept off the bases. When Brian gets on he worries the pitchers and the rest of his team mates benefit with more fast balls.

Key for the offense is to get Brian on base. For the defense keep up the outstanding pitching. If the other team doesn't get base runners on it helps the defense. Whenever any team has runners running all over the place it puts extreme pressure on any defense to make a plays.
