THAT THIRD STUD, BY THE WAY...

...is Josh Duncan. The Xavier senior now has 25 points (that 61 total over the tourney's first three games) and he's played the past five minutes with four fouls. Duncan just hit a three, then grabbed a critical rebound (there were about three WVU misses under the basket and he wisely avoided drawing his fifth foul before grabbing a board that he could get to) and was fouled. Duncan then hit the two free throws.

That's five unanswered points in the final two minutes by Xavier, all by Duncan. He has about 40% of his team's points this evening. I thought Xavier was balanced. I'm sure they don't mind.

It's Xavier 64-62, with 21.2 to play and WVU has the ball. Just coming out of a timeout.

By the way, if you're keeping count of Love today (Kevin, Jason, etc.), I just noticed Arizona State athletic director Lisa Love seated at the scorer's table. And now, much like Air Supply, I'm all out of Love.
