More about Davidson . . .
Time was ticking away on the Davidson Wildcats and their rapid rise to college basketball relevance.
Down 11 points at the half and being stymied by Georgetown’s suffocating defense, the shots were clanking, even for sophomore star Stephen Curry. Making good on just 8 of 30 attempts from the field as a team, 2 of 8 by Curry, they were in deep trouble. As off as their efforts were, the Hoyas’ were true, Georgetown firing at a 66.7 percent clip from the field and converting 5 of 7 from three-point distance.
The team that seemingly could do no wrong in its NCAA tournament-opening upset of Gonzaga couldn’t find the hoop and couldn’t stop GU. It looked like the 2½-hour drive back to the Charlotte area was going to be a long and disappointing ride.
Sorry, but Cinderella wasn’t ready for the carriage just yet.
