Thank goodness! After the first half I was ready to jump off a cliff! Great second half effort especially on defense. Hard to believe KC held a 17 plus anight scorer to 3 pts. I will miss his presence on this team. To me KC is the face of the team. He does everything well, always seems to be well focused, seems to be a good sportsman. ANd for the last three years it seems he has come up big in the right moments, whether it is a big shot, stop or just having a claming effect on his team. Thanks KC for 4 great years! Also, I believe Ryan Narcisse learned to shoot free throwa from Shaq! BOTH of his free throws nearly missed the rim ON THE SIDE! The length was good but he almost hit the back board with out hitting the rim. It is easy to laugh after a win!

Those were some bad free throws...but it was good to see this team laughing and joking after the game. It had been a rough last couple of games for these guys...now they have a chance against Wake Forest to make a statement going into the ACC tourney....
