Just wanted to say that the Monmouth University basketball team should be very proud of themselves. Not only did they win in the play-in round against Hampton to get into the tournament, but they played a great game against Villanova in the first round.

It’s tough for any sixteen seed to put up a good fight against the number one seed, but Monmouth did a great job of keeping Nova on the their toes. Yeah, they didn’t win and that sucks, but I think that the Hawks team is starting to become a dominant player in both the NEC and regionally, with respect to smaller schools.

Watching the basketball team over the last week has made me happy that the team is moving forward and getting better everyday. I may have to go to one of their games next season!
