Nebraska Wesleyan wins 78-72 thriller over UW-Oshkosh for program's first DIII basketball title - Mar
18, 2018
Nebraska Wesleyan is bringing a trophy back to Lincoln
as the Prairie Wolves men's basketball team claimed the
program's first-ever national championship with a 78-72
victory over Wisconsin-Oshkosh in the NCAA Division III
men's basketball national championship game on Saturday
night at the Salem Civic Center in Salem, Virginia.
Head coach Dale Wellman ,
earlier named the National Coach of the Year, led the
Prairie Wolves squad to a school record 30-3 overall
record in their historic run through the DIII national
tournament knocking off three nationally-ranked
opponents.
It was a 3-point shootout between the two teams as they
combined to make 18 3-pointers in the first half alone.
The biggest of those 3-pointers came as the buzzer
sounded when Nate Schimonitz (6'4''-G)
connected giving NWU their first lead of the game at
45-43.
In the second half, the hot shooting kept up for the
Prairie Wolves as they made 6-10 from long range
compared to only 7-24 for the Titans.
NWU built up a 10 point advantage at 68-58 with 8:27
remaining, but UW-Oshkosh came storming back. Ben Boots (6'1''-G)
scored six straight points to cut the lead down to seven
points. A pair of Titan free throws pulled them back
within six with just under four minutes to play. Boots
then knocked in two more 3-pointers, including one with
2:52 left to tie the game at 72-72.
On the Prairie Wolves next possession, Nate Schimonitz found Jack Hiller (6'6''-G)
open in the corner and he knocked in one of the biggest
shots of his career as the 3-pointer lifted NWU to a
75-72 advantage.
Schimonitz then sealed the victory as he hit a spinning
shot inside the lane with 32 seconds remaining to put
the Prairie Wolves up by five points.
The Titans had a couple 3-point chances but they
couldn't connect and the Prairie Wolves grabbed the
rebound and allowed the celebration to begin.
Junior Cooper Cook (6'5''-F-97)
was named the tournament MVP as he led the Prairie
Wolves in scoring for a second straight night. Cook
scored 16 points, making 4-6 from 3-point range.
Nate Schimonitz was
named to the All-Tournament team as he finished with 15
points and six assists, hitting 3-4 from long range.
Jack Hiller was
also 4-for-6 on 3-pointers and ended with 14 points,
while Ryan Garver (6'2''-F)
and Deion Wells-Ross (6'4''-F)
scored 11. All five Prairie Wolves starters scored in
double figures for a second consecutive game.
NWU ended the game 14-22 from 3-point range and set the
NCAA III Tournament record with 73 made 3-pointers in
six games. They shot 52.1 percent as a team.
UW-Oshkosh was 17-of-40 from 3-point range and was led
by Ben Boots with
24 points.

ECAC Division III Tournament - Mar
5, 2018
Widener University capitalized on a 25-point game from Elijah Boyd (6'3''-G/F)
(Germantown, Md.) and double-double from Tournament MVP Sardayah Sambo (6'3''-C)
(Middletown, Del.) to hold off the Neumann Knights in
the second half Sunday to claim the ECAC Division III
Men's Basketball Championship hosted by Wilkes
University.
From opening tip, the game lived up to the billing of a
championship bout, as the Neumann Knights and Widener
Pride swapped leads nine times and tied six times
through the first half. Widener held the edge at
halftime, 41-40.
The Pride widened its lead to seven points, 47-40, to
open the second half - the largest lead so far by either
team in the game. Neumann answered by scoring
eight-straight to take a 48-47 lead, before Widener
bounced back in front.
After Neumann's Jaquan Johnson (Chester, Pa.) tied it,
51-51, on a 3-point play, Ryan McMahon (6'3''-C)
(Mount Laurel, N.J.) pushed the Pride back in front,
57-51, with a pair of baskets and a steal, which led to
a bucket. That lead grew to as many as 10 points, 67-57,
before Neumann began fought back to make it a
one-possession game, 72-70, on a 3 and layup by Raquan Brown-Johnson (6'5''-G)
(Philadelphia, Pa.) with just under three minutes to
play.
The Pride (19-10) continued to score down the stretch,
with Sambo capping the game with a layup to finish with
a double-double 16 points and 15 rebounds. Sam Smith (6'4''-G)
(Wyomissing, Pa.) and Connor Laverty (6'5''-G/F)
(Upper Township, N.J.) followed with 13 and 10 points,
respectively for the Pride. Laverty also had 10 rebounds
to complete a double-double.
Brown-Johnson led Neumann with 18 points, while Isaiah Wilmore (6'4''-F)
(Philadelphia, Pa.) and Aaron Johnson-Chavis (Philadelpha,
Pa.) followed 14 apiece. Tyaire Hudson (5'11''-PG)
(Wilmington, Del.) had 13 points for the Knights, which
finish their season with a 23-9 record.
