Nova Survives OT Scare Against Robert Morris in the First Round of the NCAA March Madness Tournament!!!

Can you believe what you just saw!!!  I feel like my heart is about to jump out of my chest and it's only the first round of the NCAA March Madness Tournament.  Nova was trailing by Robert Morris (Bobby Mo) the entire game.  Nova finally got enough points to get them into overtime.  The game came down to the last second to allow Nova to beat this fifteenth seed team by three making the final score 73-70.
Nova has to step up their game to make it out of the Sweet Sixteen against Baylor.  Coach Jay Wright benched Reynolds, his senior star, to make a "minor teaching point."  Reynolds missed 13 of 15 shots from the floor, but he made up for it with seven of eight free throws in the final 3:06 of regulation to send the game into overtime.
Check out one of the best matchups of the day at 3:45pm when Richmond faces St. Mary's.  The winner of this game will play Villanova in the second round of this tournament!

  3. Nova is lucky if they make it to play Baylor at Sweet 16 if they continue to play the way they have been playing.
