This game was an emotional roller coaster. The plan of attack in this one was obviously to beat the zone of Syracuse to get open looks. And one of the best ways to beat the zone is to have a guy that goes unconscious and can't miss. Enter Dinos Mitoglou. ...

The Orange are off to a 4-0 start in conference play and sit tied atop the ACC standings with second-ranked Virginia.

According to Smith, the Syracuse men’s basketball team drew an average crowd of 20,809 people to their past nine home games while the women’s team has seen an average attendance of 596 people. “The numbers say it all—women are less supported by fans in athletics than men,” wrote Smith, adding that “[s]tudent athletes put in the same amount of time and dedication to perform on the court; it is only fair as a student body and fan base we cheer them on equally.” To eliminate the size differential between male and female athletes’ fan bases, Smith says society must amend its idea “of what makes an athlete” to ensure the inclusion of women. ...
