KC NDEFO

The second game of the season for new Seton Hall coach Shaheen Holloway is his old team, Saint Peter's.

Bobby Dalbec hit a tiebreaking solo homer in the sixth inning and the Boston Red Sox avoided a season-opening sweep against their longtime rival with a 4-3 win over the New York Yankees.

Reds right-hander Hunter Greene will make his much-anticipated major league debut when he faces the World Series champion Braves in Atlanta.

North Carolina crushed all hope of a March Madness miracle, getting 20 points and 22 rebounds from Armando Bacot in a wire-to-wire 69-49 runaway over 15th-seeded Saint Peter’s.

The run by tiny Saint Peter's to the cusp of the Final Four has been riveting.

Saint Peter’s (21-11) ended a 21-game winning streak and a memorable season for Murray State (31-3), located 265 miles from Lexington in Kentucky’s southeastern corner. Saint Peter’s built a 13-point lead early in the second half and never trailed, but Murray State still made it tense. Hill made five 3s for 19 points and Tevin Brown scored 14 for Murray State. Saint Peter’s finished at 42% and closed the game with a 6-0 run for its ninth consecutive victory. Murray State eventually regrouped after its early foul problems, but for the first time since late December, the Racers failed to close out a game.

Saint Peter’s broke the hearts of Kentuckians yet again, getting 17 points from KC Ndefo to beat Murray State 70-60 in the second round of the NCAA Tournament and complete its rise from obscurity into the Sweet 16.
