Good season for Buckeyes
The basketball season is over for the Ohio State Buckeyes, as they lost to Georgetown today 70-52 in Dayton, Ohio in the second round of the NCAA tournament.
OSU had run out of gas after a great regular-season run through the Big Ten. G'town had a 13-point lead at the half, and outdid the Bucks in key stat categories such as shooting percentage and boards. I thought OSU would bring it a little bit stronger in what was sort of a home game, as Dayton is only an hour from the OSU campus.
Even so, the Bucks had a great year. Despite the weak finish, I believe in coach Thad Matta, and think OSU has a great future.
