If you had told me at the beginning of the season in November that PC would win 27 games, win it's first ever regular season BE championship, get to the Sweet 16 for the first time in a quarter century, and lose by only 5 points to one of the bluest of the blue blood college basketball programs in a game that would have taken the team to the Elite 8, I, and probably many of my fellow alumni, fans, etc, would have signed up for that in a heartbeat! This was a ride no knowledgeable Friar fan could ever have expected. My hope is that this is a turning point for the program and that seasons like this one won't be considered outliers.

I was amazed and proud of the energy and numbers representing Friartown inside the UC last night.
Thank you for your coverage of the team this year Kevin!
It was pretty incredible. Thanks for reading! More to come all offseason.
