Gotta hand it to SLU, they sure made some shots when they needed to.  Feels like the officiating tilted the court in their favor though.  Loved our effort in a hostile environment, just frustrated we gave this one away at the end of regulation.  Should we face the bilikens in the A10 tourney, I hope the Dukes remember how this felt.

My Thanks also to CLK, Phoenix, Bluffhunter, FAM, WashPARick  and everyone else who has moderated these boards over the last years..  This board has provided me much information and insight regarding our Dukes  Glad to hear this forum will be in good hands going forward.  Cheers!

I'm going with 9 and 4 out of conference, 11 and 7 in conference giving us a 20 win season heading to the A-10 tournament where I hope to see another magical run. Let's Go Dukes

I'd be quite happy if Lucas turns out to be the next Jake Dimchele!  Welcome to Duquesne Lucas!

After Mossie passed away I had discussions with a number of people about doing the cheer.  Every single one of them, including a former player with season tickets who has since moved south, said that they were not worthy to lead the cheer.  I know that I certainly don't feel worthy of such a task.  My thought at this point is perhaps the captain of the cheerleaders with the rest of the cheerleading squad around her could come out to center court and shout "ARE YOU READY?!?!?!" with the rest of the cheerleaders then joining in with Ahoya, Ahoya, Shoo Shoo, Rah Rah, Shoo Shoo, Rah Rah, Ahoya, Let's Go Duquesne!!!

Sure, the cheer will never be quite the same without Mossie, but I would love to see it become part of the Cooper Fieldhouse experience.  Having the cheerleaders do so would be a good place to start.
 

As one of the many who could not attend personally, I wish to congratulate all the Duquesne fans in Omaha and thank you for cheering on our Dukes.  That's not to diminish the importance of all the fans watching from home, but to appreciate the lift it must give the team to see DU colors in the stands  Outstanding game by coaches and players. Is this nine W's in a row?

The perfect St. Patrick's day present for me.  Kudos to our players and coaches for a great A10 tournament and NCAA bid 

Fantastic finish and a great night to be a Duquesne fan

My thanks to the mods for this board as well.  And a special thanks to Phoenix for the game previews..  I so look forwarrd to those.  Let's Go Dukes

Dare I say we won this one at the free throw line?  Very nice road win and should help our A-10 toruney seed.

That was depressing to watch.  We were good at the free throw line is about the only compliment i can give the Dukes for this 1.  Hope they can put this behind them and compete the rest of the way.

I agree that Dayton played better down the stretch, but that free throw discrepancy is hard to ignore, especially when a couple of those calls don't pass the eye test.  We did give one of the country's best teams a real test in a difficult place to play.  Probably outplayed the Flyers for 34 minutes. This one was lost at the charity stripe.  Gotta get over it and beat St Joe's at home.  Hope to see you there.

Finally got to to watch this game . The Dukes seemed to be well prepared and I feel they played their best fundamental basketball of this season.. Just plain fun to watch. Congrats to coaches and players on a needed road win.  Does this team have s strong finish in store?  Let's Go Dukes!
