Hey good evening everyone..well we're now less than 24 hours away from tipping off the n-c-a-a tournament right here in the hoosier state...and if you're still looking for a cinderella to root for in this year's big dance, look no further than the colgate raiders, featuring fort wayne's own jack ferguson..ferguson and the 14th-seeded raiders will open tournament play against third-seeded arkansas on friday afternoon..colgate is back in the big dance for the second time in three years after finishing with a 14-1 record in patriot league play..
The raiders average over 86 points per game..that ranks second in the country only behind gonzaga..and ferguson's efficiency has been a major factor in that success..as a senior, the homestead grad is averaging a career-best 12 points per game while shooting over 50 percent from beyond the arc..now he'll get a chance to show off that sweet stroke on the sport's biggest stage...and he says getting to do so in his home state makes it that much more special..
