Patriot League Tournament, First Round
(1) #14 Lafayette 75, (8) Lehigh 55

Todd DeHaven returns to action with an authoritative 13-point, 12-rebound performance as we advance to the semi-final with a tidy win over Lehigh.

Daniel Warnock, who is now #3 on Lafayette's all-time scorer's list with 1536 points, pours in 24 more points tonight. Tim Hutchinson's 15 leaves him at 991, with at least one more game to shoot for 1000.

#2 seed Army advances, but #6 Colgate upsets #3 American. They'll face each other on the opposite side of the bracket. We'll play #5 Navy, who edged #4 Holy Cross, 59-58.

Big Sazzy Block Watch: A modest 2 blocks gives Samuel 378 for his career. Barring an outburst of relentless rim protection that lasts for several games, he'll finish his career short of 400...but that's nothing to criticize him for.
Record: 28-3.

Patriot League Tournament Semifinal
(1) #14 Lafayette 69, (5) Navy 58

Todd DeHaven posts career highs in both points (24) and rebounds (14) to lead us into the tournament final. Daniel Warnock supports him with 19 points, and Tim Hutchinson joins the 1000 Point Club; his 12 points give him 1003 for his two-year career.

Oddly enough, we get only two points from our bench: a single basket by Johnathan Blouin.

Army beats Colgate, so we'll face the Black Knights for the championship.

Big Sazzy Block Watch: Our big man blocks three shots tonight, so his career total rises to 381.
Record: 29-3.

Patriot League Tournament Championship
(1) #15 Lafayette 74, (2) Army 68

Graham Sims' Lafayette Leopards win their second Patriot League tournament, knocking off a tenacious Army team in the finals.

Daniel Warnock leads us with 25 points. He's supported by Tim Hutchinson's 13 points, and the 10th double-double of the season for Todd DeHaven (10 points, 11 rebounds).

Big Sazzy Block Watch: Samuel blocks only one shot today, but he won't trade the tournament trophy in his hand for a dozen blocked shots.
Record: 30-3.

Now, it's time to get ready for the Big Dance.
