Cleveland State delivered its second straight stunner in the Horizon League, defeating No. 4 Oakland 44-43 in the semifinals. One game after the Vikings knocked out the top seed Northern Kentucky, they took out the preseason favorites as Tyree Appleby hit the go-ahead shot with 32 seconds left and CSU shut down the Golden Grizzlies’ attempt for a game-winner. Cleveland State now will face No. 2 Wright State, which held off 6 seed Wisconsin-Milwaukee 59-53, keeping the Panthers from their second straight trip to the tourney final from a low seed.
The Horizon League championship game had the possibility of providing the first conference champion with a sub-.500 record this year, as Cleveland State took their 12-23 mark into the game against Wright State. The Raiders took care of business, however, beating the Vikings 74-57 for their first trip to the NCAA Tournament since 2007.Tuesday’s Three Things to Know: Gonzaga rolls, Notre Dame survives and four other tickets punched--College Basketball Talk
