Here is what I have to say before I read any of the golden commentary that I'm sure this thread is laced with....

Shannon coached a great game. He came in with a plan that if the players executed for four quarters would have won them the game. It would have kept Justice from getting hot and it allowed them to move the ball through the defense that Knott threw at them.

They did great for three quarters and a couple minutes... they took their biggest lead of the game early in the fourth and then committed three STRAIGHT turnovers. That was the turning point! Don't let anyone tell you any different!

Then with a chance to tie or take the lead they missed the front end of two one-and-ones and Tobler charged with a chance to tie the game after catching a big break by Camron missing a free throw. That sealed the game for Knott (assuming they got the ball in and made their free throws - which they did).

Knott's been the best team this year and Perry gave them all they could handle. They'll represent the 14th well if they finish out this tournament.

Congrats to Justin Johnson, Tyler Fugate, John Toomer and John Begley on their careers and best of luck in the future.
