If you happen to thought the insanity of March wouldn’t begin till Thursday, you have been sorely mistaken. Actual faculty hoops followers know that the First 4 Video games are sometimes classics.
I’m certain many weren’t listening to a matchup of sixteen seeds in Alabama A&M and Saint Francis on Tuesday evening. However, those that didn’t tune in missed an superior sport with an unimaginable end that bought March Insanity off to an incredible begin.
St. Francis, champions of the NEC, have been making their first match look since 1991 and their second all-time. In the meantime, Alabama State, champions of the SWAC, have been making their fifth look all-time.
The sport was a back-and-forth affair the entire approach, although St. Francis led for almost all. Alabama State took the lead with simply over 4 minutes to go for the primary time because the early going, and it was back-and-forth within the closing minutes.

After some chaos, Alabama State had the ball beneath the basket, needing to go to the size of the ground. Then, this occurred.

What a ballsy name by Alabama State coach Tony Madlock to go deep there, and an incredible play by Amarr Knox to gather the ball and rating.
People, it’s formally March Insanity.
