That’s it. It’s over. They gave it a good fight, but in the end it didn’t happen. We were all hoping that this would be the game they could put it all together. Just this one game. A win in this one game would make us forget about the rest of the season. It would make all the tough losses worth it just to take out a #1. In the end, the same problems that hampered us all year were still there down to the final buzzer. Sloppy ball handling, Randolph in foul trouble, and at the end; rebounding.
Yesterday before the game I was listening to Larry Glover on 590 WVLK and he said he had the feeling that we were going to win the game. The more I thought about it, the more I convinced myself that we were going to win as well. I guess that’s homerisim at its finest. I’m glad that the game was competitive and wasn’t a blowout as some expected (or hoped for). Now let’s see what Tubby can put together for next year. I’m tired of losing.
