Duquesne is 5-29 from the field in the 2nd half and is going to win.

The Duquesne Whistle is blowing.

Somewhere in America a P6 team with a .500 record is crying over Duquesne getting their tournament bid, and some P6 conference is upset about letting the A10 claim the tournament money that should be rightfully theirs.

The A10 always maximizes its bids by having a good regular season champion, like Davidson '22 or Dayton '24, lose in the tournament.

In 2018, the A10 worked it out to get 3 bids by having Davidson win the Tournament by beating St. Bonaventure and Rhode Island.

It helps that Joe Lunardi is an alum of an A10 school.

(This is tongue in cheek. But it happens.)

The A10 regular season champion has won the tournament twice in the last 10 years.

Haven’t we had 6 different tourney champs in the last 6 tournaments?

8 different schools have won the last 8 tournaments.

Richmond stayed close for a bit, but got blown out at VPI.

Hawks were down 58-65 at Seton Hall. Now up 68-65.

OT

SJU acquitted themselves well on the road, but lost in OT. VCU taking on Villanova next.

Hawks and Ramblers are free to hit the portal now.

Duquesne up 14 with just under 17 minutes left in the game. Would be nice for the A-10 to get a win.

Duquesne wins by 4.

Looks like it was well worth the $40,000 per starter in NIL money they paid.
