History is riddled with upsets. David defeated the mighty Goliath. George Washington crossed to Trenton and suprised the Britsh to secure an American victory. Even Rocky Balboa beat Apollo Creed the second time around. However, it is a rare occurance that we see an upset of great magnitude in every day life.
Well today, Easter Sunday, was a day for upsets. I'm sure many people reading this probably have no idea where Davidson College even is, but I'm sure everyone has heard of mighty G-Town. Armed with a support cast of giants including Hibbert and Ewing Jr. Few people gave Davidson a chance. However, with a mascot like the wildcats you should probably expect a "catfight"
However, all it took was a major comeback and another all-star effort by the guard that nobody wanted. Like the ugly duckling passed over by all the major programs Stephen Curry arose from the ashes and only scored 25 of his 30 points in the second half and little Davidson upset mighty Georgetown 74-70 on Sunday to reach the NCAA tournament's round of 16. The game was ugly at points, and it was doubtful that Davidson would comeback. However, Curry with ice in his veins downed a three and drained 3 of 4 free throws in the last minutes to score victory.
I bet America will pull out a map to find tiny Davidson now.
