Very quick whistle on the in-bound gave Columbia the ball, and Columbia capitalized. Congrats to a team that never quit. As for Brown, this makes Ivy Madness a huge uphill climb.

Your team has a slim lead and the ball; twenty seconds left; your team's coming out of a time out; and you're a senior (Erold) and Coach Martin probably reminded the Brown 5 NOT to foul- you've been here before and just can't allow yourself to be drawn into a foul with your team simply needing to run 20 seconds off the clock; certainly not now, of all times!
But, we eventually know enough to expect the unexpected; and Columbia regained possession to hit a free throw and a layup with 8 seconds left. Brown's star guard Lilly then missed a three at the buzzer and now The Mountain Lion just can't deny having witnessed a hard-earned two point victory, as claimed by the only coach with lifetime tenure in the whole damned Ivy League!

As usual, Valmas is spot on. There is no doubt that it was a wonderfully scripted victory thanks almost entirely to a freshman guard who Coach Engles has hid successfully at the far end of the bench for the entire season. I just watched the post-game interview between Columbia's announcer, Lance Medow and Coach Engles. Did Engles really say to Medow that he had no idea what happened in the final minute of the game? I hope he was joking.
