Saint Marys The St. Mary Gaels become first cinderella in Sweet Sixteen

Maybe the St. Mary Gaels are for real. It certainly looked that way as they controlled most of the game against #2 seed Villanova en route to a 75-68 win.

The Wildcats could not corral Gaels center Omar Sandham who finished with the game of his career, 32 points and 7 boards. Conversely, Villanova star guard Scottie Reynolds struggled the entire tournament finishing an astounding 4-25 from the field.

The 10 seeded Gaels will face the winner of the ODU/Baylor matchup in Houston in the Sweet Sixteen.

What'd you think of this?
