Quick Christmas recap
Hey folks, I'm back! Here is just a simple recap of the action that went on so far this week:

Diamond Head Classic:
7th place game:
Murray State over Loyola-Chicago 71-68
5th place game: Charleston over Charlotte 84-81
3rd place game: Hawaii over Oakland 73-70 in OT
Championship: Nebraska over Oregon State 78-66
We also saw Washington commit a BIG "Whoopsie loss" last Monday when they lost to Seattle. Really, Huskies?!

However, there was also some sad news to report as well. Rest easy, Jim Larranaga.
