The tournament is finally here and Mercer is #1 seed! Guaranteed NIT, but I know the team wants that NCAA bid. We can all taste it and it's time to take care of business on the court. Thanks to the players and coaches for another great year to watch. Now let's get 3 more wins!!

1st game is against #8 Lipscomb on Wednesday at 8:30pm / ESPN3

Already beat them twice and seem to beat them regularly. No mercy here, let's beat them by 30 and enjoy the next day off!
Mercer rolls Lipscomb 82-48 in the quarterfinals. Standing room crowd 300+ over capacity. http://www.mercerbears.com/sports/mbkb/2...0307vlzg2c
A battle from start to finish and Mercer beats Upstate to move to the FINALS against the hated FGCU Eagles. There will be nothing sweeter than seeing Mercer get revenge on the Coast after last years tourney.

CBS has you playing Southern in the play-in game if you win today.
The defense is just nonexistent vs FGCU. They are hitting a ridiculously high percentage, including 3's. I think they're better than 60% from 3pt range.
Couldn't get it done again in the A-Sun finals. This game eludes Coach Hoffman. The positive is we know this team is capable of big wins and rolling through a tournament after last years CIT. Let's do some work in the NIT!
You guys had a fine year. Sorry that you couldn't take the tournament, but you will still be playing post season. I hope you make the best of it.
Tough loss for you guys, but you've had a great year as ASUN champs. Best of luck in the NIT.
