NCAA Tournament 2000 - UNC Wilmington playbook: Blizzard warning

UNC Wilmington playbook: Blizzard warning
From Coach's Edge

There's a blizzard brewing in North Carolina -- in early March. Freshman Brett Blizzard led the UNC-Wilmington Seahawks to the Colonial Athletic Association championship, and hopes to lead them to success in the NCAA Tournament.

But hopes are not high for the CAA Champs, who are making their first appearance in the Tournament. As is usually the case, the Colonial Champ is overmatched in its first-round game. The Seahawks will face Cincinnati.

ANIMATE THIS PLAY DIAGRAM WITH SHOCKWAVE
(A) Ramond Perine (33), the Seahawks' leading assist man, dribbles to the right side as the Seahawks clear out.
(B) Victor Ebong (52) breaks high and gets the pass from Perine on the point.

(C) Brett Blizzard (11), the Seahawks' leading scorer, hangs out in the post before cutting to the wing off a screen from Marcus Green (34).
(D) Blizzard shoots 47 percent from beyond the arc, so the Seahawks would just as soon get him a 3-pointer as anything else. Everyone knows a Blizzard can devastate the Carolinas. This Blizzard hopes to devastate an unsuspecting tournament foe.
