SYRACUSE, N.Y. — It was a stunning Sunday for Syracuse University basketball — times two.
The Orange men’s basketball team advanced to the NCAA Tournament Final Four in Houston with a 68-62 win over Virginia in the Midwest Regional final in Chicago. The Orange (23-13) staged a remarkable rally from a 15-point deficit with 9:32 remaining in the game to make college basketball’s biggest weekend for the second time in four years. Syracuse outscored the Cavaliers 29-8 to finish the contest at the United Center, led by a furious full-court press and 14 points from freshman guard Malachi Richardson.
“It was a great comeback, one of the best I’ve coached in, any team I’ve had…,” Jim Boeheim, Syracuse head coach, said in the post-game press conference.
