HU pulled it out 64-62...lots of missed free throws at the end of the game...
Irwin for Grace won't sleep well tonight.

Hopefully a learning experience. I don't think that the loss hurt Grace on the big picture as they are pretty well locked into 6th and even though they were getting votes, I believe that the only way they get to Branson (after losing to Marian Tuesday) is through the conference tournament. Of course, if they miss free throws, it will be a short conference tournament.
On the other hand, for HU, the game was critical. I'm guessing that HU jumps over BC Monday in the ratings.

Grace had a chance and lost it at the free-throw line (IE I'm not blaming the officials - especially since I wasn't there) However, it is interesting to note that the box score shows the foul-count at Grace 23 and HU 12. Was Grace fouling at the end to stay in the game?

Actually, Huntington fouled Irwin twice at the end of the game to try and get him to miss, and he did...the front end of a one on one that could have given Grace the lead with less than 30 seconds to play...

tamrik - - officiating was poor. Grace should have had quite a few more fouls called on them.
Why in such an important game Forehand and Chamberlain were two of the refs is beyond comprehension.
