Yale Went Down Fighting

Last edited Sat Mar 19, 2016, 11:03 PM - Edit history (1)

Yale has just lost to Duke, but they put up a major fight. It almost went down to the wire. Also, if Yale had not made a few crucial last minute mistakes they could have won the game.

At times it seemed that Yale wanted to win more than Duke. It also sometimes seemed that Coach K was getting out coached and that Yale had been better prepared for the game.

They lost three one and dones and an important senior going into this season - and they had a key early season injury (their best big man, Jefferson) - they really only play 6, including three freshmen. Great game - Yale should be proud of how they came back.

The only thing I can see stopping them there is the lines at Disneyland.
