\"\"Tyler Evans hit a three pointer at the buzzer to give UFindlay a wire to wire number one ranking.\u00a0 No other team has ever gone 36-0 in division two NCAA basketball.\u00a0 It was a true effort.<\/p>\n

Throughout the season, all five starters managed to average double-digit scoring.\u00a0 In the final two games, critical players fouled out before the overtime period.\u00a0 Each time other players stepped up and more than filled the shoes of the starters.\u00a0 A deep bench has enabled the Oilers to literally wear out opponents all year long.\u00a0 When division two player of the year Josh Bostic fouled out, Tyler Evans came in and nailed the winning shot in the championship game.<\/p>\n

There is something else unique about this group when compared to other division two teams.\u00a0 All the UF talent came from Ohio and every player started as a freshman at Findlay (no transfers). With only 3500 students, we have a greater opportunity to get to know our athletes.\u00a0 I have had three of the basketball players in class as well as four of the cheerleaders.\u00a0 Congratulations to all of them!!!<\/p>\n

Here’s a picture from the celebration today outside Croy. Tyler Evans is wearing the black hat.<\/p>\n
