1) Nik Cochran was named the SoCon Player of the Week, and it is hard to argue it given the way that Davidson beat Kansas. Cochran made the key three pointer that clinched the game. He made 4 of 5 from three point range for the game, and 5 of 6 overall. He also made 7 of 8 free throws. Cochran's 21 points, three assists and two rebounds. He played just 21 minutes, which means that he really dominated in his time in the game. Cochran was very good. Well deserved. Congratulations to him.
2) College of Charleston put up a valiant fight against the fourth ranked team in the country on the road on Tuesday night. Louisville defeated the Cougars 69-62. The Cougars proved that they can play with the best teams in the country- on the night after Davidson took out Kansas. This has been a very rewarding week so far for the SoCon. Unfortunately, these top two teams are the teams making all the noise. The Cougars and Wildcats both have shots at getting at large bids to the NCAA Tournament, but the problem is that the rest of the conference is going to drag them down? This could be a real problem, and it is really unfortunate, because both teams are excellent.
