Jayhawks Survives Battle With Davidson 59-57 Fly On To Final Four
Posted by Jeff Sack under Slam Dunk NCAA
It was a battle to the end between the little engine that could, and the Number One Seed. And in the end Goliath (Kansas) won 59-57, but what a battle Davidson put on! The school that has captured the Nation’s hearts in the 2008 NCAA Tournament went down fighting to the end led by their scrappy leader Stephen Curry. Kansas looked like they finally could relax in the last minute of the game, when Curry hit a trey with 54 seconds left in the contest leaving the Jayhawks with a precarious 59-57 lead. The Wildcats had two chances to win the contest in the last 21 seconds, but missed both shots. Mario Chalmers and Sasha Kaun scored 13 points each to lead Kansas in the victory. Curry scored a game high 25 points in the losing effort. Kansas will take on former Kansas coach Roy Williams and North Carolina in the Final Four match-up next Saturday.
