CHARLESTON, W.Va. Team 23’s 74-71 victory over Herd That in Monday’s second-round TBT matchup may have been advantageous in more ways than allowing the team to advance to Wednesday’s 9 p.m. regional final against Best Virginia.
The victory over Marshall’s alumni-based squad came on JD Sword’s 3-pointer just before the shot clock expired during an Elam Ending with a target score of 72. Sword’s triple silenced the largely partisan Herd That crowd at Charleston Coliseum, which will be an obstacle Team 23 faces again in the round-of-16 matchup with Best Virginia.
