Terriers on Top after Stunning Miami
St. Francis' 2-0 start has Remsen Street buzzing with title talk
It was supposed to be a season-opening two-game trip through Florida aimed at toughening the St. Francis Terriers up for the Northeast Conference portion of their schedule.
But by the time it was over, Remsen Street was abuzz with visions of March Madness in November.
Spearheaded by All-NEC First Team selection Jalen Cannon and freshman Wayne Martin of South Shore High School, the Terriers did the seemingly impossible last Friday night in Coral Gables, pulling out a history-making 66-62 overtime victory against defending Atlantic Coast Conference champion Miami before 6,060 fans at the BankUnited Center.
