The Wildcats hadn't been a player in the NCAA tournament since Lefty Driesell led them to two regional finals in the 1960s. Georgetown could only look on, stunned at its second-round exit a year after reaching the Final Four under coach John Thompson III.
Go Davidson!

Thanks Davidson, for ousting the very team that last week stomped all over my alma mater.
Posted by: Pat at March 24, 2008 09:36 AMCongrats to you and Davidson! I was thinking of you as I cried because I had the Hoyas going to the championship game in my NCAA pool.
Still, it is always nice when the underdog wins, even if it means we have to hear the phrase "Cinderella story" over and over again.
Posted by: Amy at March 25, 2008 03:32 PMThat was a fun game (and I'm a Gtown fan).
I feel so old. I grew up watching Patrick Ewing and Dell Curry...now their sons are battling it out on the college courts (Ewing Jr. for the Hoyas, Stephen Curry for the Davidson whatever-they-ares). Crazy. Where did 25 years go?
