FSU Basketball Update

WOO HOO!!! The boys did it, they beat the #12 seeded Georgia Tech and then the #1 team in the country, North Carolina, and have moved on to the ACC Championship game tomorrow at 1pm against Duke. Toney Douglas continues to cement himself as one of the greatest players to come through Florida State with a 25 point effort against GT and 27 points against UNC. Derwin Kitchen, who didn't play particularly well for most of the game, hit a game-winning up and under layup to give the 'Noles the win against the Yellow Jackets. In the UNC game Chris Singleton hit two big shots from the same spot in the closing minutes, one a three and the other called a two after being reviewed by the refs. Free throws by Derwin Kitchen and Toney Douglas at the end sealed the FSU win. I can't express how happy I am nor how proud I am of the guys, they represent the university well and deserve to be rewarded for all the hard work they put in. I've been going to FSU games since I was in the womb but I was only 6 or 7 the last time we were really good (around 92-93) and I have been a rabid fan through some tough times. I am so excited that we have a shot to win the ACC tournament and am happy that if we pull it out we will have beaten both UNC and Duke to do it, it seems like a championship will be even sweeter going through the two powerhouses of the ACC and the country. GO NOLES!!!
