I just pulled from the closet the same Siena gear I wore the last time Siena won the MAAC! Funny, Mom, Mr Siena, my brother in law & I all wore jerseys of the players from the 2002 MAAC Champions. We'll be wearing them tomorrow night too.

Wow!!!!!!!!!!! Brian, Marshotel,knick saint, indiansaint, and all the hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of the green and gold there today - thanks for all of your efforts in being the "sixth man" today. It was an awesome experience - it sure beat watching it on TV - not even close. Thanks to everyone supporting our Saints. I guess I will wear the same gear Monday night!!!!
Here are my memories which won't go away very quickly (thankfully):
a) It all starts with Nico on his incredible rain of threes- a Willis Reed kind of story! b) JO wanting the ball down the stretch and wanting to get to the line where he was 4 for 4 down the stretch c) Justin Robinson, to his credit, trying to answer down the stretch as he has done so many times. d) Classiest move of the night - after the post game interviews, King Rice came back out on the court and hugged and congratulated Nico on a great game! e) the bald ref calling three straight "touch" fouls on the Saints - hard to take f) My son saw Lavon afterward and gave him congrats and he was still smiling ear to ear g) Lavon's touchdown pass split two defenders to Quis h) Quis weaving thru the lane to score and create i) Brett - Mr. Steady, just doing as much dirty work as was needed for Siena to win again j) Nico by himself celebrating by the press after the game - waiting for the interview k) Kadeem coming back to our section during the Iona game and embracing his family and sitting down to scout l) Our WHOLE SECTION WAS STANDING AND ROARING down the stretch and NO ONE said, "sit down" - Everyone just stood and was yelling for all they were worth.
Monday looms and the NCAA's are calling Siena's name. Did I remind you not to miss it?

Just to share - everyone in the house after dinner tonight couldn't ignore all the noise I was making. My brother and my brother in law were watching with me, but I am the animated one. They ALL ended up in the living room and watched the last 10 minutes or so of the game with us. Even the non-sports types were excited by what they saw!
