Having secured their third consecutive trip to the NCAA basketball tournament, the Atlantic Sun champion ETSU Lady Buccaneers traveled to Cincinnati to face national No. 5 Xavier on their home floor in Round 1.
All-conference-tournament nominee Tarita Gordon scored a career-best 30 points and helped the Lady Bucs get the lead temporarily, but in the end the Lady Musketeers spoiled the potential upset with clutch shooting in the final minutes.
A-Sun Tournament MVP Siarre Evans came three rebounds shy of what would have been the 55th double-double in her career, as she scored 20 points. A-Sun Tournament hero and all-tournament nominee TaRonda Wiles scored 14 points, while junior Tara Davis added 11 points.
