Sweet Sixteen which started on Thursday, March 25 is coming out with some brilliant performances on the court. On Friday UNI was pitted against Michigan State University team where both the teams came up with some brilliant performances. It seemed that UNI was in no mood to lose the opportunity to ride into the Elite Eight for the first time ever, and the Michigan State University team was not in a mood to allow that to happen.
Both the teams came up with a good show but it was Michigan State University’s Korie Lucious who stole the game. In 39 minutes Korie Lucious helped his team with four assists that led the team to have a lead over the UNI which had to struggle to equal the score. He did an amazing job on the court and contributed 10 points. Durrell Summers added 19 to the team’s score. After the win the coach of the Michigan State team seemed all elated and reportedly said that he plays the game to win. The win has led the Michigan State University team to the Elite Eight.
On the part of the UNI team, which has caught the attentions after the early NCAA game, where they had defeated top seeded team Kansas, the day turned out to be a bad one. The UNI team tried its best with Adam Koch adding 13 points and Kwadzo Ahelegbe adding 12, but it seemed that the game was determined for the Michigan State University team with Kalin Lucas providing team Michigan State with that last minute shot.
