Drexel Game Thread (Last of the Season?)

Is this the way the season ends? Not with a bang (like the ACCT run), but a whimper (an injured, mentally and physically exhausted Pack squad playing out the string in front of a handful of fans)? Sadly, it seems likely, as this previous post explained. To clarify, I sure as hell hope we win, and will even make the trek to a sports bar in about an hour to watch on ESPN-Unavailable. But I won’t fault the staff or these kids in the slightest if we lose – even if we lose by 40.

Anyway, your in-game comments belong here. Let’s ride it out together!

8:12 update: I hate to say I told you so, but…

Halftime update: Really proud of the guys for hanging in and grinding it out. Drexel never met a shot they didn’t like, that’s for sure.

Damned near midnight update: Being wrong never felt so right! What incredible character. Go Marist!

    Dude…Coster with another foul, his 3rd

  10. 1.21 Jigawatts 03/13/2007 at 9:07 PM #

    Basically no calls for the first 30 minutes….non stop since.

  11. Tau837 03/13/2007 at 9:07 PM #

    We’re really working the free throw defense. Elegar missed another pair.

  12. justaguy 03/13/2007 at 9:08 PM #

    The way Elegard is missing FTs the pack will foul him the rest of the way.
    54-54 pack ball

  13. Red_Terrors 03/13/2007 at 9:08 PM #

    McCauley fouled by uhh…can’t pronounce or spell his name.

  14. Tau837 03/13/2007 at 9:09 PM #

    McCauley to the line with 2:13 remaining. Makes one and follows with an airball. State leads 55-54.

    I feel another heart attack coming on.

  16. justaguy 03/13/2007 at 9:10 PM #

    55-54 pack ball 1:20

  17. Tau837 03/13/2007 at 9:10 PM #

    You could tell we are willing to be aggressive with Elegar there. Physical defense, and he missed.

    Layup and one for Costner!!

  18. Tau837 03/13/2007 at 9:11 PM #

    1:10 remaining. Costner makes it 58-54.

    I am watching the game tracker – looks like we are getting a little seperation!

    I’ve bitten my nails down to the quick. Thank god for the Wolfpack Sports Network.

  21. Jeremy Hyatt 03/13/2007 at 9:12 PM #

    we lead?

  22. Dr. BadgerPack 03/13/2007 at 9:12 PM #

    Everytime I look at one of these games I feel like lloyd bridges’ (i think) character in airplane…

  23. Tau837 03/13/2007 at 9:12 PM #

    Wow, Elegar with a layup and fouled by Grant. But he missed the free throw. He’s 4-12 from the line. Pack by 2, under a minute left.

    Boy, ESPN.com really treats the NIT well. I can’t find any bracket, any writeup, anything on there regarding the post season NIT. Only thing is the scoreboard. Yea, we are getting exposure allright.
