Not sure they’ll have enough gas if they face Northeastern but it’s a great accomplishment so far.
Rooting for and so happy for Coach Holmes!!

I very confident, Coach Holmes had a lottt to do with this win. As much as Iike Dane, I wish Holmes had gotten the job. He and his family bled Green and Gold

Of the 4 CAA schools to never appear in the NCAA, here are the number of CAA finals in which each has played:
W&M - 5
Drexel - 2
Towson - 0
Elon - 0.
I thought bringing that up was very hurtful.
Actually, that stat is misleading (or, rather, they did a poor job of explaining it). Drexel has been to the NCAAT -- just not from the CAA. I am certain that this is true for Towson, too.
Drexel went 10-10 from the free throw line in the closing minutes to hold off Northeastern.
I guess I'll root for Drexel in the final because they have been shafted out of NCAAT at-large berths in the past. However, if Elon wins, then at least the CAA has a team on a nice hot streak going into the tournament (not that it is likely to matter ....).
