The Nevada game was exciting for me for several reasons: I was sitting press row behind Head Coach Porter Moser and hearing his dialogue during the game; Loyola beat Nevada and was continuing on to the Elite Eight; and my dad was in attendance. My dad had driven down from a business trip in Mississippi to watch the game and cheer on his daughter’s school. It was nice to get to share that moment with him, but also for him to get to see the journalist side of me.

MY OWN MARCH MADNESS: DALLAS (PART FOUR)
My Own March MadnessCommentWith 0.6 seconds left in the game, senior Donte Ingram hit a long three-point shot that made it in. I swear that shot dropped in slow motion for me and when it went through the hoop I was in awe. Loyola had pulled off the upset and won the game with a final score of 64-62… and I might have shown a little happiness on my face.
