Notes from the sideline:
-Heytvelt continued his dominant play, almost single handidly delivering victory for the Zags.
-Jeremy Pargo continues to play as if he is a freshman again, minus that big dunk he was a no show. Definitely not the Senior leader we need.
-Bouldin Started slow, but finished with a bang and a good all around game, 12 points, 6 boards, 5 assists and a steal.
What it means for the future (Analysis):
The Zips gave the Zags all they could handle for the first 25 minutes of the game, but in the end the Giant awoke and slew the Cinderellas upset bid. I expect this to add another notch to our belt and help boost the confidence of a highly sensitive team. If Heytvelt can continue his fiery play, this Zag team could join the annuals of past Zag-dom lore with another Elite Eight or maybe, just maybe a long coveted Final Four bid.
