Sports: Why MSU choked in the NCAA championship

  • I just don’t think we did the things we did all year. When you say that, you take away some credit from North Carolina, and I don’t want to do that. It was a combination of us and them, but we need to take some of the blame.
  • Michigan State coach Tom Izzo • On why their team, on a solid NCAA tournament run, faltered in the final game. Before last night, they were a feel-good story. • source

Sports: Selection Sunday’s feel-good story: North Dakota State

  • It’s so new to everybody up here that we’ve been bombarded by fans asking about who we’re going to play. It’s a learn-as-you-go process.
  • Saul Phillips • Coach of North Dakota State, who made the tourney in its first year of eligibility after winning the Summit League title on Tuesday. Many of the seniors redshirted their first year on the off-chance that this would happen. So it’s kind of like a dream, or something. They’re 14th-seeded and taking on 3rd-seeded Kansas. • source
