Like a bear emerging from hibernation to eat, I will take the chance today to return from my blogging hiatus, if only briefly, to celebrate one of my favorite teams reaching the pinnacle of their sport. That’s right – I was one of the few non-Duke-alumni not rooting for the underdogs in last night’s NCAA […]

Curry makes all the difference in Davidson win at UTC
Stephen Curry needed a few minutes to get into the game, but he eventually took over in Davidson’s Wednesday night road win over UTC. Although the Mocs played a close game at Davidson in December, they had no answer for arguably the nation’s most dominant player, who scored 32 points and handed out 8 impressive […]
A little D-I basketball preview
