OCU’s women’s basketball team lost in their first round against Harris-Stowe. The Stars were a heavy favorite, being a No.1 seed vs a No. 8 seed. This disappointing loss ended the hopes of a title run for the team a bit earlier then anyone would have expected. OCU had lost their last match-up with Harris-Stowe back in November. This leaves the normal nagging question of: Did they under prepare for what they thought as going to be an easy early tournament win? Did the coaches/team forget that they had lost to Stowe and over looked them to a higher ranked game later in the tourney?These questions arise in any sport when a high ranked team gets knocked off by a underdog. Such was the case today when 10th ranked Davidson beat out 2nd ranked Georgetown in the NCAA Men’s tournament. It was an epic underdog comeback that eluded to the ever famous “David vs Goliath” battle.With the passion and drive that makes College playoffs exciting to watch, also due to the lack of a salary and endorsements for the athletes, a thought comes to my mind; Which due you prefer to watch, College or Pro playoffs?
