17h The state of Pitt hoops in 2019: there is a soccer game on campus on the same night there is a basketball game and there is far more interest and more fans at the soccer game than the basketball game. I would have never believed that could be possible a decade ago.
Pitt used to be the equivalent of DePaul(until this year) in Soccer. Never a threat. But now they're the only team to have beaten the #1 team UVA and are in the tournament.
Georgetown, St John's and Providence advanced to the Sweet-16. The Hoyas beat Pitt 5-0. The Friars were down 2-nil in 2nd half at Penn State, but tied it and won 3-2 in overtime. And of course, St John's bounced Syracuse 2-1.
