About This Game
On a neutral court in the First Round, Furman shocked Virginia with a dramatic one-point upset in a tournament classic decided by contrasting shooting philosophies. The Paladins unleashed 10 three-pointers—a perimeter assault that proved decisive against Virginia's modest three-point defense (just 2 makes). The Cavaliers dominated the boards, pulling 42 rebounds to Furman's 32, and found consistent scoring in the paint with 22 two-pointers. Yet Virginia's inside-focused approach left them vulnerable from distance, and that deficit proved insurmountable. Both teams capitalized at the free-throw line—Furman with 14, Virginia with 17—in a tightly contested battle where every possession carried weight. With the final margin just one point, the victory came down to one team's willingness to shoot from three. Furman's 68-67 victory was a study in tournament resilience and shot selection.
