Carleton Denied First-Round NCAA Upset Bid
Note: UW-Stevens Point went on to win the NCAA Division III national title. The Pointers escaped the opening round game vs. Carleton with one-point victory on their home floor. This was also the only time UW-SP trailed during the final six minutes of any 2010 post-season game.
Carleton nearly pulled the upset of the NCAA Tournament’s first round, taking a one-point lead with 12 seconds left, but University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point’s Matt Moses made two free throws with 6.1 seconds left and Jeremy Sutherland collided with a Pointer defender driving for the potential game-winning shot--with no foul being called--as the Knights’ upset bid against fifth-ranked host UW-Stevens Point was snatched away in the final seconds, 59-58. Check out the video recap of the contest, audio from Guy Kalland's post-game press conference and our final thoughts on the Knights Blog.
