That was the craziest game the Zips won that I ever attended. People in front of me walked out before it was over. Down by 5 with a minute left. I think they had to foul and keep extending the game. And as we know, missing FTs can be contagious on a team. Groce needed some luck and he got it. EMU's Spottsville missed both FTs right before X made the winning shot and then Channel took the charge that had him down on the floor while Rob Murphy stormed around screaming at the refs. That was an important game. Akron had just loss two in a row (Buffalo at home and Kent on the road) and 2 in a row at home (Toledo and Buffalo). Zips losing 3 MAC games in a row at home wasn't an option.
