When the ball got stuck between the backboard and the shot clock during the second half of a NCAA college basketball tournament game between St. Mary's and Indiana, the players tried with no success to get it free. Enter Indiana’s resourceful cheer squad.
Thursday’s game was Indiana’s fifth in seven days. Saint Mary’s came in fresh from a 10-day layoff after falling to the Bulldogs in the WCC Tournament title game.
Saint Mary’s pulled away late in the first half and led by as many as 34 points — and the overtaxed Hoosiers couldn’t catch up. The Gaels, ranked No. 19 in the AP Top 25, earned their highest seed in 11 NCAA Tournament appearances. Their best finish in the tournament came in 2010, when they went to the Sweet 16.Indiana, which has won five NCAA championships, was making its 40th tournament appearance.
