Interesting end to the game. UNC calls timeout thinking there is still time on the clock. Ref runs by Roy calling timeout. Replay shows clock didn't start correctly after UNC inbounds the ball. So, game is over. I have not seen that before.

Wow. Mercer's experience showing through here. Duke lost as a #2 to Lehigh in Greensboro. Now, losing as a #3 in Raleigh. Proximity doesn't always matter. :)

Wait, the NCAA isn't that smart. They would find a way to have the extra 32 teams play down to 4 teams, then add those 4 teams to the 64, to then make 68, and then go from there. Think about the extra rounds! :)
2 funny things:
1) the article calls them play in games :)
2) did you notice the correction at the bottom?
CORRECTION (March 19, 11:00 a.m.): An earlier version of this article said four teams would match up in two play-in games. Eight teams will play four play-in games this week in Dayton.
Lester was a 4 year starter. The knee injury cost him the most time.
