Well that was disappointing. To watch your favorite team lose a game at
the free throw line is as frustrating in person as it is on television.
Our seats directly behind the basket gave us a unique view of the horror show --
for every Tech free throw that clanked badly off the rim, there were two NC
State free throws that swished cleanly through the net.
Late in the game,
the State players were struggling to walk up and down the court, but sometimes
being that tired helps the concentration. That certainly seemed to be
the case today because State's free throw shooting was clean and
pure. State easily beat the Hokies the first two times they played
this year, but Tech had their chances today. They just couldn't get
over the hump. Well, on to Selection Sunday and the NCAA Tournament.....
