[NU Sports] Charleston Classic Final (Championship Game)

[neonrye at aol.com]

Well, it's a match-up of NU vs. Seton Hall (which beat St. Joseph's to reach the final this evening).  Interestingly, Virginia Commonwealth, last year's Cinderalla at "The Dance", was knocked out in first round.

I was among the (un)fortunate, along with then-President Henry Bienen, who saw NU play Seton Hall at the Meadowlands (Izod Center) about 3 years ago. That game set back the game of basketball to the era of James Naismith and peach baskets.  Although we went down 15-2 early, we came back and won the contest, which was butt ugly.  Hopefully, this Sunday's game will be well-played and NU will again emerge triumphant.
