What a whirlwind three days of Syracuse basketball! Coming into this tournament, there were questions aplenty on how Syracuse would perform against better opponents. I think it’s safe to say that those questions have been answered.
After an opening round win against Charlotte, Syracuse played back-to-back games against top 25 opponents and came out on top in both. After a three point win over UConn yesterday, SU came right back out with another outstanding performance to earn a 74-67 victory and the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament championship.
The entire game was very back and forth. No team had a lead larger than nine points, and there were over 25 ties and lead changes throughout.
