Seeing as championship week has officially started, we are going to be doing a new daily madness segment. Here, you can find the daily scores and schedules for every conference tournament game that day as Trizzle will once again be taking over BIAH. For a full schedule of the conference tournaments and a listing of the automatic bids, click here.
GAME OF THE DAY: Portland State 79, Montana State 77
Montana State came into this game with a losing record at 14-16 after finishing in sixth place in the Big Sky. But after upsetting #1 Weber State on the road on Tuesday, the Bobcats locked up their first trip to the Big Sky finals since 1998. While the Vikings were the heavy favorites coming in, the Bobcats were right in it for most of the first half. The Vikings used a 11-1 run to open up a double digit lead midway through the second half, but Montana State would keep chipping away, setting up this exciting finish:
Jeremiah Dominguez led PSU with 22 points and 5 assists, while Divaldo Mbungo led MSU with 20 points nad 10 boards.
PLAYER OF THE DAY: Mike Singletary, Texas Tech
This isn't even close. Just by looking at the number's he posted, you can tell Singletary had a helluva game. He finished with 43 points as the Red Raiders were able to come back from 21 down to knock off the #6 seed Texas A&M Aggies. 43 points. Nothing special, that has been done before. Well, what about scoring 29 straight points? Because that is precisely what he did. With 9:35 left in the game, the score was 60-50 A&M, but Singletary would outscore the Aggies 29-18, ending with a lay-up with 39 seconds left that game the Raiders the lead for good.
They were good too: Kevin Rogers, Baylor - 10 pts, 20 rbs; Dexter Pittman, Texas - 26 pts, 10 rbs; Melquan Bolding, Duquense - 23 pts, 13 rbs; Craig Brackins, Iowa State - 23 pts, 12 rbs; Aubrey Coleman, Houston - 20 pts, 14 rbs.
TEAM OF THE DAY: Robert Morris
The Colonials earned their first trip to the dance since 1992 with a 48-46 win over Mt. St. Mary's in the finals of the NEC tournament. With the clock running down, Jeremy Chappell lost control of the ball. It ended up in the hands of Dallas Green, who hit a short jumper with 2.5 seconds left on the clock. It was his only field goal of the game.
